Need help with an extension (github.com)

Folks I downloaded bypass paywall clean d here and am trying to set it up (on android, mull). After I had to remove the old one, yknow.

I enable the debug menu, click install extension from file but then idk what I'm doing wrong. I did extract the file but nothing seems to work?

Would appreciate any help, thanks!

You should be able to keep using the filters just with an adblock. Add a custom filter site and you're done.

This is the site wit filters to add:

That list doesn't work anymore. UBO throws a network error.

There is this list, which is not the same one from BPC but has been recommended to me before.

Hmm, it seems you're right. I have the filters, but it says they haven't been updated for 44 days. I can send them to anyone interested to be added manually. Anyway, there is about half as many as in your link, so it's likely mine would be redundant.
