From the doc: "µMatrix does not guarantee that sites will work fine: it is for advanced users who can figure how to un-break sites, because essentially µMatrix is a firewall which works in block-all/allow-exceptionally mode out of the box: it is not unexpected that sites will break"

Workaround is to un-block whatever net requests which are causing a site to break. I can't make sense of "no work-around": unblock everything?

Edit: There is a scope-based switch to completely turn off matrix filtering.

Hi, I am well aware of the matrix and a fan (have been a HTTPSB user and now test uMatrix sometimes). I am also a contributor to https://gngr.info which has a Request Manager inspired by the matrix.

I was referring to a few issues I encounter in uMatrix which are not present in HTTPSB. I probably should log them; was not sure if uMatrix is ready for full-time use yet.
