uMatrix is archived and I think uBlockOrigin is now advised to use(which incorporate uMatrix by enabling advanced settings) For those who want to try blocking more stuff you can enable hard mode and bind relax blocking mode keyboard shortcut I'd recommend also enabling filter lists(I advice yokoffing/filterlists and your region/language) https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Blocking-mode:-hard-mode https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Blocking-mode:-hard-m...

I reluctantly switched to only uBo because of uM bugs. But the UI/UX is just a huge step backwards to enable mobile usability.

uBO advanced settings still isn't as flexible as uMatrix was though, fwiw. (I did give in and switch in the end though.)

But uBlockOrigin UI is so much worse... Besides, uMatrix works fine. It's that kind of program that doesn't need any updates.

  I would really like an intuitive UI for people who don't want to do 'a project' to get their config tight.

    But it is intuitive... I don't know what you mean. You can't manage a whitelist with a single big red on/off button, if that's what you want.

      You technically can, that is what community website rule Recipe are for.

        I didn't knew community/public whitelists exist, nor any browser extension that uses whitelists and blocks all other connections by default, like uMatrix does. Do you have any examples?

        I meant that uMatrix has that community rules recipe feature you can apply with few clicks.

Until uBO has an even remotely usable interface for this use case people (including myself) will continue to use uMaxtrix or forks of it instead.

  Amen. I would (and did!) switch browsers to continue using uMatrix rather than go without (and uBO is not a replacement)

With uBO I can't block cookies by domain.
