Thanks for sharing CreepJS. Agreed on JavaScript. I'm a fan of LibreJS filling in a gap after uMatrix was discontinued.

Wasn't most/all of uMatrix functionality folded into uBlock Origin?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

Dunno. I like uBlock Origin a lot but disabling scripts per site is not something that feels very comfortable for me. With LibreJS it can be quite a hassle but I'm already quite used to that, and on the way I kind of learn things. Like that blocking scripts about Apple and Google logins at Twitter with LibreJS helps with clutter free reading and not being asked to login.
