Not everyone will like it, but uMatrix comes with more fine-grained control, and the defaults are set to block all third-party and cross-site loads, including static content hosted on other domains. So a lot of sites will break by default, and you've to go enable anything that you actually want. uBlock on the other hand will only block the (list) filters you've enabled.
- coryrc 4y agouBlock Origin has an advanced mode (Dynamic filtering) that allows most of the config uMatrix allowed. https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Dynamic-filtering https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Dynamic-filtering
- OJFord 4y agoStill not everything, and way harder to use.
- Rebelgecko 4y agoI'm pretty comfortable with uMatrix and for whatever reason the uBlock filtering UX just completely flummoxes me.
- jackac 4y agoI don't recommend using dynamic filters because they completely override any matching static filters. Makes the point of filter lists useless, if uBo had a way to set dynamic filters to a lower priority than static they might actually be useful. At the moment the only way I found to replicate uMatrix was to use static filters to block by default on a per domain basis and whitelist domains per request type. It is a lot more work so I only do so for sites with user generated content (e.g. hn or reddit) that have links to who knows where that you might want to prevent from loading. *$strict3p,~css,~image,~script,domain= \ stackexchange.com| \ stackoverflow.com| \ superuser.com *$strict3p,css,image,domain=stackexchange.com|stackoverflow.com|superuser.com,denyallow=cdn.sstatic.net *$strict3p,script,domain=stackexchange.com|stackoverflow.com|superuser.com,denyallow= \ cdn.sstatic.net| \ ajax.googleapis.com
