May 2026 – AdguardFilters delivered meaningful reliability and coverage gains through a blend of feature deliveries, site-entry maintenance, and extensive domain-focused bug fixes. Notable features delivered include CoreLibs-based domain rule support for deluxe.pizza, Kinopoisk.ru handling updates, and site-entry updates for powder.com and ottawasun.com, plus a RedGifs.com integration refresh and a YM minor enhancement. Foundational base module scaffolding was established to enable faster future iterations, and ongoing maintenance updates were completed for external sites such as balbums.st and watch.dropout.tv. A targeted domain-blocklist improvement added diariodocomercio.com.br to the blocklist to close a gap in coverage. Major bugs and domain fixes addressed across the month include imafuji.earth, help.imdb.com, telegraaf.nl, booksy.com, pw.live, xnxx.es, städt München.de, erorealm.com, deltaforce.garena.com, vulcanadvocate.com, stonyplainreporter.com, highrivertimes.com and other high-priority domains, restoring correct blocking behavior and reducing leakage. Many of these fixes were implemented as individual commits per issue, e.g. 5bb4a34fd0fa78643e3bae84f1b2c728b5043f2b, a7ec4eabdc9281c2cf36e0bf6a3ef56966854062, 753be4178e81bc7884d721224dabd932dd7b92f5, 8ff3d2d96a292a443ff7747ad03f14bb7dbe747c, b7b4c9d307115bc44d9ad652b5106d8957ce6c42, 0439bdffcc99cdbebbd8c3227dc78ed50d98c191, and others across batch-level fixes. Top-level business value: this work increases blocking accuracy, reduces user-facing failures, and lowers maintenance costs by establishing scalable base tooling and clearer site-entry workflows. It also accelerates onboarding of new domains and helps ensure critical sites are consistently blocked as intended. Technologies/skills demonstrated: domain-rule engineering with CoreLibs, site-entry management and updates, batch-fix workflows, maintenance automation, base module scaffolding, and cross-site coordination for rapid impact across dozens of domains.
