As a fellow Firefox user this is not my experience at all. Most stuff works fine once I allow the necessary subset in uMatrix. Some things are a pain in the ass, like embedded video widgets that need to load in dozens of scripts from all over the web before they'll finally get to the actual video frames, but I can pretty much always get stuff to work.
One tip: Don't try to install too many general filtering extensions (uMatrix, Privacy Badger, uBlock Origin, etc...) at the same time because they will end up fighting.
- GekkePrutser 5y agoSame here..I don't even have another browser installed on my main machine. Never have the need for it, FF works great. I think the OP has too many plugins :)
- calvinmorrison 5y agonow some apps grab keys from the browser like "control-F" won't give me a native search modal dialog - instead providing their own search widget. Things like this break experience of the web for me. Combine that with tridactyl which i prefer to use to navigate around and it's even worse. My addon list isnt that big either... it's just that I disable a lot of things as well, like webGL and other stuff. Suprising number of sites needlessly use these things.
- bovine3dom 5y agoYou might be able to fix the ctrl-f thing in Tridactyl with `:help blacklistkeys`, although I'm not sure it will catch keys with modifiers. Follow https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl/issues/2712 https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl/issues/2712 if you want updates when that's added. It would help if you could link to the website that hijacks ctrl-f in that issue :)
