The picture below shows uBO's default selection of filter lists. You can add more or remove some filter lists already selected by default. (Most other blockers only enable EasyList.)
If you remove filter lists, the _uBlock filters_ are strongly advised to be kept due to their optimization for uBO.

The likelihood of page breakage increases with more filter lists added. When this issue occurs, you should report it to the maintainers of the corresponding filter list or create an exception filter to fix it for yourself.

uBO discards duplicate filters, so the number of filters used within a filter list depends on how many duplicate filters were detected within that filter list. The order in which the filter lists are loaded into memory is undefined.

When you hover the cursor over the clock icon of a filter list, a tooltip will tell you when the list was last updated. If you click the clock icon, uBO will mark the list as out-of-date. Lists that are out of date will be automatically updated in the background eventually when you check the option _"Auto update filter lists"_. You can force out-of-date lists to be immediately updated by clicking _"Update now"_.
