Just posting here the always relevant reminder that Firefox still has real ad-blockers.

But how many does it create? So many websites just break entirely if you block js.

Generally temp-whitelisting the base domain lets you move around the website while blocking all this garbage. Not always, unfortunately. I tend to nope out of websites that don't work after that unless I'm trying to shop for something, and then I just accept my fate if there's no alternative shop to turn to.

If you find some, share it, because I've had a total of 1 issue in a decade or so, and it was solved by closing the browser so it updates.
