    Kinda weird to see nobody recommend NoScript, I've used that for...jesus it must be over 10 years now

    Is it shitty now for some reason I don't know? I know it takes a bit of effort to get it to work but once you whitelist the important bits of sites you visit a lot I never really notice it

      Stopping malicious js is usually left to ublock and co. NoScript is more for the tor browser, cause it does way more than just no javascript. ABE, anti click jacking, etc. can all interfere with normal browsing in ways the ublock usually doesn't

        Hmm, maybe I just have a high tolerance for messing with the permissions to unfuck a website every time I go somewhere new

        Or maybe I'm just dreadfully boring and only go to the same handful of sites with any kind of regularity lol

          The cool kids extension for overconfiguring is a fork of ublock called umatrix. Try it and see if you like it more than noscript.
