I tried it, sadly it suffers from the same issues as uMatrix: Some things silently fail. I had hoped the fork was updated for modern browsers, but it doesn’t look like it.
An example is fastmail, the service worker gets blocked from some request for images, without any blocking showing up in uMatrix. Unblocking the domain in question makes everything work.
Yes, I still use it and can confirm that I have had no concerns or problems with it. On the other hand, if I had to reinstall, without research, I'm not sure how I would reinstall it. Having alternatives is a good thing.
I have had frequent enough issues with it silently blocking some things with no ui exposure of those blocks. Been a while now, but I think it was stuff like webrtc and other more "arcane" features.
Indeed, this is why I eventually stopped using it; sometimes a random site wouldn't function properly, and took time to figure out it was uMatrix. It was a nice plugin indeed though.
Yeah true, but I had many sites that I manually white-listed scripts / external resources, and was succesfully using those sites. But then some particular functionality of the site you rarely use once stops working, and you later find out uMatrix was still messing with some stuff, even if you whitelist all resources.
