I'm sort of inclined to agree. I really want to like NoScript, but every now and then when I use NoScript for a couple of weeks I get frustrated with it and disable it. Sure, having it disabled is also frustrating, but it's a different kind of frustration and at least I can sort of use the site without having to put active effort into it. Now I just use uBlock Origin, it just works more or less.
- JupiterMoon 11y agoI guess I have less diverse browsing habits than you guys. I use noscript very happily. I whitelisted what I need for sites that I use years ago and most things I do now "just work" (most is ~95% the other things I temporarily allow). When e.g. a job application needs a javascript heavy online test I open up another profile with no addons and use that profile for that that thing. Based on experiences using browsers without noscript I think that the "faff time" (for me) from doing what I do is less than the "waiting for excessive javascript" and "figuring out that this site has overriden scrolling/back button".
