* `##.` / `##` / `###`: Hides parts of a page.
* `#@#`: Whitelists parts of a page to make them load.
* `||`: Blocks resources from domains or parts thereof from being loaded. For non-domain-specific resources, no pre-emption is needed at all.
* `@@`: Whitelists resources from specific URLs to make them load.
* `! ` / `# `: Marks the start of a comment that shall not be interpreted as an entry.
* `$thirdparty`: Ensures that resources from a domain is only blocked if you're not visiting the domain itself.
* `$third-party` / `$3p`: Ensures that resources from a domain is only blocked if you're not visiting the domain itself.
* `$domain=`: Ensures that resources from a domain is only blocked if you're visiting a specified website.
* `$generichide`: Prevents all non-domain-specific hiding entries from working on a website.

* `~`: Means that an entry does *not* apply to a specific domain.
* `/\/\/\/` and similar: Text detections in RegEx format.
* `[Adblock Plus n.n]`: Used by Adblock Plus, AdBlock, and forks of them to determine if they should load the filterlist. Number is the intended minimum ABP version. `2.0` and `1.1` are most common; `3.1` is on the rise and can be used to block support for old forks. This has no effect on uBO or its forks.
* `:not(.element)`: Looks for page elements that doesn't contain a particular element or text string. Can be paired with other syntaxes á la `:not(:-abp-contains(Example text))`.
* `:before` / `:after`: Removes the pseudo-elements that belong to a page element.
### Nano Adblocker, uBlock Origin and AdGuard only:
* `:style`: Changes the CSS values of an element, in much the same way as what userstyle extensions like Stylish would've done.
* `{ }`: Same as above.
* `$badfilter`: Deactivates a resource-blocking entry, for cases where pre-empting it with `!` doesn't feel interesting enough.
* `$badfilter`: Deactivates a resource-blocking entry, even if it is present in another list.
* `:has-text`: Same as `:-abp-contains`.
* `:has`: Same as `:-abp-has`.
* `!#if`: Specifies that a section of entries only applies to specific platforms or extensions. Closed out by `!#endif`.

### Nano Adblocker and uBlock Origin only:
* `!#include`: Embeds another filterlist that is hosted on the same domain (with numerous restrictions).
* `##+js`: Invokes a script that is embedded in those extensions, and usually using the script to modify a value on the site.
* `##+js` (prev. `##script:inject`): Invokes a script that is embedded in those extensions, and usually using the script to modify a value on the site.
* `:xpath`: An entry written with the very advanced Xpath syntax.
* `$important`: Makes a resource-blocking entry take precedence over another whitelisting entry.
* `127.0.0.1` / `0.0.0.0` / `::1`: Used by "*hosts*" system files to signify that network requests to such a domain shall be redirected to a local-only IP address, thus preventing it from loading. Nano and uBO treats it the same as `||`.
* `##^`: Blocks resources before they've even been loaded, based on their values in *View source* instead of their F12 ones.
* `$redirect`: Redirects resources to a neutered version that has been embedded in those extensions.
* `:matches-css`: Looks for page elements whose existing native (i.e. non-inherited) CSS values match those of the criteria.
* `:matches-css-before`: Same as above, but looks for CSS values in its pseudo-elements instead.
* `$first-party` / `$1p`: Ensures that resources from a domain is only blocked if you're visiting the domain itself.

#### I should figure out and test out what these ones do:
* `:-abp-properties`
* `##^`
* `$xmlhttprequest`
* `$redirect=noopjs`
