To answer my own question, it's a bit redundant but I need both.

uMatrix handles network stuff (blocking css, js, media, etc).

uBlock also handles network stuff, but the difference is that uBlock can also block specific elements on the page, eg, divs by id or class.

The Stylus extension is great for that. Firefox's style editor lets you test CSS edits in real time. Then copy those CSS rules into Stylus and the browser will remember them. I use it to turn off all CSS animation too.

If you block all JS and CSS with umatrix, you can still read articles by pressing the "reader view" button in Firefox.

uMatrix can do the later too by now
