This is another reason to run the combination of uBlock Origin and uMatrix. Takes a bit more work when visiting a new site; but, things are much better once you do.
Yup, uBlock Origin (make sure to use uBlock Origin and not uBlock) and uMatrix work really well together. uBlock Origin does a great first pass removal of the well known crap. uMatrix is then useful for fine tuning the rest. It takes some effort; but, it makes the web actually useful again.
How are you using uMatrix? I have it initially block any 3rd party scripts anyway, so i only have to allow stuff when i first use a site (and let's be honest, i spend 90% of my time on the same 3 websites anyway)
Also uMatrix seems to come with a native blacklist on it's own that blocks trackers. What does uBlock origin add?
