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

Don’t you love it when a website is incapable of showing anything but a blank screen when javascript is disabled
Don’t you love it when you view source and its all there and fully functional, but the body has
display: none;because Web Framework of the Minute™ has convinced web designers that fancy animations are the bee’s kneesThey all deliberately act like they don’t know what Progressive Enhancement is
React became defacto and destroyed view source and progressive enhancement in a single blow
Whats surprising to me is how many websites are completely functional
I’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
i 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.
Or install Librewolf and get all that out of the box
If, by that, you mean lots of empty space on the page because the ads are gone, I’ll take it.

When 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.
you need to go outside, my friend - enjoy the sun, touch some grass!
Never!
uBO 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.
That moment of anger and confusion when you install a fresh Firefox and type in “ublock origin” in the address bar and get violated by Google’s consent popup. The frustration with yourself because you should’ve known better as you go to addons.mozilla.org and type your query in yet another search box, setup uBlock Origin, block 3rd party and resist fingerprint, and no single website will ever work correctly again. With Privacy Badger also installed ;p
I 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.
