… And then you setup uBlock Origin, block 3rd party and resist fingerprint, and no single website will ever work correctly again.

Xylight (Photon dev) ( @Xylight@lemmy.xylight.dev ) English4•1 year agoI’m honestly okay with that if it makes sense for the website.
A massive web app? That’s fine.
Your 2 page blog that you built using React and added 7 UI libraries? just turn on SSR ffs
miss_brainfart ( @miss_brainfart@lemmy.ml ) 1•1 year agoIf it makes sense, yeah.
In a lot of cases it just doesn’t.

ares35 ( @ares35@kbin.social ) 26•1 year agoi have ad and script blocking, plus a few other things. if a site doesn’t work. big deal, i’ll go elsewhere.
certain news sites in particular don’t seem to understand that they are not the only one with ‘the scoop’. lock an article behind a paywall, i’ll just click and drag that headline, then right-click and search. boom a dozen other non-paywalled sources for coverage of the same story, some with your exact article, even.

Never!
This is the correct answer.
ReversalHatchery ( @ReversalHatchery@beehaw.org ) 9•1 year agouBO by itself really shouldn’t break anything.
Btw, if a website does not work for you, try to archive it at archive.org, and see if you can view it that way. Some of the interactive elements work usually, but of course the website will become dumber, but at least you can read it.
Yes by itself it hardly breaks anything, but blocking 3rd party scripts and frames usually does. It’s no big deal, you can whitelist what is needed.
The Doctor ( @drwho@beehaw.org ) English6•1 year agoIf, by that, you mean lots of empty space on the page because the ads are gone, I’ll take it.
jsdz ( @jsdz@lemmy.ml ) 4•1 year agoWhen does this moment of bliss happen? I must’ve missed it. All I noticed when I lost my firefox profile for some reason and had to make a new one was about an hour of fiddling with the settings, installing extensions, and messing with userChrome.css to make it look reasonable.
Tony N ( @tonyn@lemmy.ml ) 2•1 year agoI go a step further and install uMatrix, and then only unblock the resources that are essential for a site to work right.
uMatrix seems to no longer be maintained or useful with uBlock Origin.
Rescuer6394 ( @Rescuer6394@feddit.nl ) 2•1 year agoi find it funny when a site only works with third party scripts and frames allowed. white page otherwise.
like why are you requesting the most stuff on your website from third parties?
boredtortoise ( @boredtortoise@lemm.ee ) 2•1 year agoI love it when I use the new Firefox cookie decline setting or I still don’t care about cookies plugin and get a scrim blocking the view or the page is not scrollable
