Giving up umatrix would be hard, but maybe this'd replace DDG for my "I just need this site to work right now" browser 🤔

    DON'T BOTHER

    uMatrix ⚠️ No longer maintained, the last release was Sept 2019 except for a one-off patch to fix a vulnerability

    Everything uMatrix did can be covered by prefs or other extensions: use uBlock Origin for any content blocking.

    It's what I always use if I'm ordering anything online, especially if the site I'm interacting with has like 17 different scripts it needs to function properly, or has been shown to play high pitched sounds through your speakers to connect your desktop session with your phone (aliexpress). >..>
