Now that uMatrix is "dead", I use Privacy Badger in all supported browsers instead. But I really miss the fine controls.

Startpage usually.

No script and hosts files were just a hassle. Life is short.

uBlock Origin can be used in expert mode and is almost as good as uMatrix then.

Weird.

NoScript is usually used in tandem with an Ad blocker.
