ITT other people still using uMatrix.
I recently moved to advanced mode in uBlock Origin, I kinda miss uMatrix but it's not that bad I guess.
This is wrong. eMatrix is an actively maintained fork on Pale Moon, which runs on Goanna engine based on ESR Firefox versions branched off.
eMatrix is superior in simplicity of usage to uBlock Origin, while withholding much more power of blocking separate elements. The latter becomes complex once you start reaching into XHR, CSS and iframe territory. On uMatrix forks you can accomplish this with any website or webpage with 2-3 clicks where this task would take 8-10 clicks.
What makes you use pale moon over more modern browsers?
I use hardened Firefox with firewalling and HOSTS rules on system.
Pale Moon is modern enough if I wanted to use it though, Goanna engine is a fork of Gecko.
oh okay
