This is a question that for some is easy to answer and for others may not be as easy to answer. So all input could help other people find and make a more knowledgeable choice and one that helps them towards their privacy goals.

aren't both bad? I don't know adguard but already ublock origin didn't have enough options to unbreak websites, it was either on or off, so lite... now I just use uMatrix and adjust the settings for each site.

What are you talking about? With uBlock Origin you can customize the block lists, change it per site, and easily select your own elements to block...

with umatrix you have a table of each domain this site is using and can toggle, for each of them, javascript, xhr, media, images and other stuff. of course, uMatrix is not an ad blocker but tracking blocker, so you can't block html elements.

uBlock Origin will also show you a list of all the blocked resources and their domains. It's somewhat effective against tracking (though admittedly I don't know how uMatrix does it, maybe it's a little different)
