It’s really interesting, I hadn’t tried this in a long long time. Some sites are simply broken, others drag themselves along, but lemmy seems to be doing alright weheee

I use uBlock’s “Medium mode” that (for some reason) is hidden behind several obscure steps: github.com/gorhill/…/Blocking-mode:-medium-mode
Anyway, yeah, it pretty much breaks every website the first time you visit. Well, ever domain at least. But once you figure out which scripts to allow to get it functioning, you can save individual settings for each site/domain that load automatically every time you visit afterwards.

Some specific websites might need tweaking but from anecdotal evidence about 90% of websites work just fine. YMMV though because I don’t visit twitter
