> more javascript when we want less
notice that if you disable javascript by default most cookie banners disappear and everything becomes better. Then you can enable it per-site if you need something in particular.
- MarcellusDrum 5y agoI tried that for a month, but most sites I encountered on search engines will just break or even refuse to render unless I enable JS. At first, I tried to leave the site and find an alternative, but after a while I found myself enabling JS on every site I visit that requires it, which negates the whole point.
- zeepzeep 5y agoYou should check out uMatrix to get even more fine grained control over sites. I usually allow images on every page, that's it. Some need CSS, some need iframes, and a small subset of websites I visit are actual webapps that need javascript.
- dmm 5y agoI love uMatrix but development on it has stopped so it won't receive bug fixes and it will probably stop working someday. I don't think I would recommend new users start using it. https://github.com/gorhill/uMatrix https://github.com/gorhill/uMatrix https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24532973 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24532973
- zeepzeep 5y agoYes true, but it's still working mostly and I don't have a real alternative. I want to switch to uBlock's Advanced mode which seems to do similar things, but I haven't yet.
- chopin 5y agoThe UI is much less clear on what is blocked or not compared to uMatrix. I definitely prefer the latter.
