I ran adblock+noscript for many years for the same reason. Thats why I am suprised you would want to deal with two extensions when you could just use umatrix. What "flow" does adblock fix?
Like I said, I have had a similar setup for probably a decade now. So no, I don't think that it is a sad state of affairs that adblock/noscript/umartix are necessary. Did the "state of sexual intercourse" need to degrade to a certain level in order for condoms to be necessary?
- Kenji 11y agoLet me illustrate my problem with a little image of the youtube homepage (top image is with both activated, bottom is with only uMatrix): http://i.imgur.com/RQ7VM0z.png http://i.imgur.com/RQ7VM0z.png Did the "state of sexual intercourse" need to degrade to a certain level in order for condoms to be necessary? No, because the risks have always been around and thus predated condoms. Still sad and worthy of improving, if possible.
- dfc 11y agoI dont have that issue: http://i.imgur.com/W05ZxpC.png http://i.imgur.com/W05ZxpC.png But I still use noscript with umatrix, so it might be a noscript surrogate "fixing my flow.". Do you have "hide placeholders" selected in umatrix? Risks have always been around.
- Kenji 11y agoNo, I don't want the "Collapse placeholder of blocked elements" uMatrix option activated because then, if a website embeds e.g. youtube videos or soundcloud songs I have no visual cue of their existence, whereas, if the option is disabled, I see it greyed out with a link that I can click to watch it in a separate window. I feel like our discussion is at this point a clash of personal preferences and would not like to continue. Have a nice day :)
