Hmm yeah but their adversaries did achieve their goal by pushing it away from the mainstream sites. Now we're into this situation of "how much do I trust this vague Russian site with my browsing activity".

At least the addon declares the sites it's for and ignores the rest but still I'm a lot less comfortable with it. It's more something I'd install in a container now, limiting its usefulness :(

In practice I just use archive.today now.

Yeah it's unavoidable. Bypassing paywalls is not a good idea for tools that depend on browsers' stores distribution.
