You should all check out umatrix if you have 15 minutes to spare.

Made by the same guy, it's adblocking and noscript done exactly how you want it done. Block pulled-in third-party sites by default, accept all on the primary domain you're looking at, and especially block from domains on a blacklist.

It breaks on a few sites, but it's not in my way as much as noscript and it's a 5 second job to get most any website to work. If you don't know how the web works, you'll be frustrated. If you understand how the modern web works, you'll wonder how you ever did without.

> it's adblocking and noscript done exactly how you want it done.

it's good, but not exactly how I want it done. Namely, it's not hierarchical. E.g. I can say Site A may load frames from site B. But then site B tries to load stuff in its frame and I have to set additional rules for Site B. instead an forward pointer to "Site B default inclusion set" or something like that would be useful.

Basically, hundreds of sites embed youtube. And on some (but not all) I simply want to apply a "load the minimal amount of stuff necessary to embed youtube" rule. If loads are conceptualized as a tree (A loads B loads C) a flat matrix is not powerful enough.

Same here. I DO want to have to re-enable third-party sites on each site I am on.

I hereby offer 10$ for someone to implement that. Yes, that is nothing for the work but that is what I feel having that feature would be worth for me right this moment.

All scopes import from higher level scopes. E.g. bl.com imports from * and www.bla.com import from * and bla.com.

I've made soem modifications to the * (global) scope to allow the minimal version of youtube to load. So whenever I visit a new website youtube just works.

[the8472]

That's not what I want because I only want to apply that to some sites.

I even wrote "And on some (but not all) [...]" to make clear that global rules are not the same as hierarchical matches.

Thanks for the recommendation! Uninstalled noscript, installed uMatrix in firefox, and wow - everything feels faster and configuration is less finicky. Loving it.

[benedikt]

Is it supposed to run alongside uBlock Origin or is it indended as a replacement?

[anc84]

Not a replacement per se but they would conflict, yes.

[tetraodonpuffer]

github seems to imply you can use both together (with the chrome caveat at the bottom)

[anc84]

Oh wow, thank you so much for that info!

[neeee]

No, they're intended to be used together.
