I don't really recommend it for anyone other than very bored devs, but it is very satisfying at times. The effort-to-utility ratio is honestly quite bad. Most of the *actually useful* functionality is redundant now with newer uBlock features.

I love the seratonin rush of one-click "disable 1p CSS" on an ugly website, or figuring out how to fuck with a clever-but-stupid paywall for the first time. :)

Also, the uMatrix UX is absolutely brilliant (that genius 2.5D green/red matrix).

> one-click "disable 1p CSS"

this is built in to firefox since it was netscape navigator, under view -> page style -> no style.

even the menu items have barely changed since then: http://www.alanwood.net/unicode/net7_encoding.gif

Didn't they delete the Encoding options with the last version?
