"YesScript" is significantly less secure and powerful.
Most importantly, with NoScript I can block tracking and ad-related javascript while still running the page's first-party javascript.
With yesscript, I don't get that granularity.
Perhaps that's why it's less popular. I also believe that it came out later and thus hasn't had the time to gather such a following as noscript has (though who would use a worse version of noscript instead?)
- log69 9y agoHi, I'm the developer of YesScript2 and I've just released a new version with 3 state blocking that makes it even better alternative I believe because you have 3 options: 1) no blocking (grey icon) 2) half blocking (allowing internal scripts and blocking external, blue icon, so you can allow now first-party Javascript as you mentioned) and full blocking (blocking internal and external scripts too, red icon).
