Just want to post this here for anyone not aware... uBlock "medium" mode. Kind of an unadvertised feature that has to be enabled in a strangely obscure way (I think they want to make sure you're not a complete idiot).
Still, pretty easy to set up, and much more protection than the default (but also not nearly as frustrating as "hard" mode or whatever they call it). Basically, most sites you visit are going to be broken the first time you go, but you enable elements you need for the site to load, then save those settings for that domain. Takes about 30 seconds or so once you know what you're doing and you only need to do it once per domain. Basically, I keep 1st and 3rd-party scripts off completely most of the time. It's relatively rare that I absolutely need to enable 1st party scripts on a page for it to load.
It's kind of like uBlock + noscript learning mode. The element zapper is clutch as well, but that's not unique to medium mode or anything.
