Check out the uBlock Wiki! uBlock can do so much more than just block elements or network requests, you can use scriptlets to get rid of so many annoyances or the https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Static-filter-syntax#subjectstylearg operator to make sites look better and cleaner, without having to add a whole userscript manager. And if you auto delete cookies/localstorage for privacy reasons like me, you can still keep some individual site settings with the trusted-set-cookie or trusted-set-local-storage-item scriptlets. Also the :has-text() selector is really useful to filter out some annoying keywords in social media posts, it even supports regex!
Es gab eine Zeit, da konnte man überall richtig gutes Eis essen. Die letzten Jahre geht es jedoch drastisch abwärts: Zuletzt musste ich tatsächlich einen noch halbvollen Becher mit meinen Lieblingssorten in den Müll werfen. Wo sind die Eisdielen, die sich durch Qualität abheben wollen? Gehts nur mir so?
I am currently self-hosting a meta search engine instance (searxng), which allows me combine searches from different engines (e.g. Google, Bing, Yahoo, etc), but also to filter out websites that I don’t want to show up....
