Does the new Firefox have something like RequestPolicy or NoScript?

Yes, the original dev migrated NoScript, but it's not a complete clone: https://blog.jeaye.com/2017/11/30/noscript/

What about RequestPolicy?

RequestPolicy can selectively block third-party content that NoScript will let through.

Check out uMatrix. I used to use RP, but switched to uM because it gives even better fine-grain controls.

uMatrix is excellent; more capabilities than RequestPolicy with a much better UI. Written by gorhill (Raymond Hill) who also made uBlock (and still maintains uBlock Origin); rock solid, low resource.

It's not for non-technical users, but if you are looking for RequestPolicy or NoScript I'm sure you'll manage.

uBlock Origin in medium or hard mode is similar to those.
