If you think "not designed with Firefox in mind" breaks things, try using uMatrix for a while.

- arca_vorago 9y agoIf people would focus on content in HTML and CSS for layout and newfad devs weren't shoving 50 jscripts a page down our throat this wouldn't be happening as bad. I plan to make all my future sites librejs compatible, and forgoe js altogether whenever possible.
- edgartaor 9y agoHow this could be done if your backend it's a REST API?
- yjftsjthsd-h 9y agoYou can still render server-side, an with a REST endpoint it should be easy to do so.
- arkh 9y agoHistory keeps repeating. Flash? Now you have heavily javascripted "website". Table layout? Now you have bootstrap and friends. Progressive enhancement? Fuck that, we don't have time. And 5 years from now people will rediscover those and accessibility. Then 5 years later another kind of hell will have appeared to replace this. The only big change for the current wave is that everything is obfuscated so it's harder for a newcomer to learn by checking how people coded things.
- caoilte 9y agoI've been using uMatrix for over three years and very very few websites don't work with it. By far the most annoying 'feature' (more of a consequence of the internet) is the way that you can't whitelist HTTPS sub-domains. (Makes AWS Console a pain.)
- fencepost 9y agoDoes AWS Console have much that needs blocking? Seems a reasonable place to simply turn off uMatrix. You could also simply use a second browser with uBlock Origin for a limited number of sites - I tend to do that for a lot of checkout /payment options where the repeated reloads of whitelisting in uMatrix could be troublesome.
