Please save your uMatrix configuration before making these changes
uBlock exels as an Adblocker with Noscript like functionality, while uMatric excels as a (no)ScriptBlocker with Host file and Adblock blocklist functionality. I was looking for a way to use uMatrix as adblocker with optional third-party block for some irritating websites. Because I run incognito I prefer uMatrix over uBlock. With the latest updates of uMatrix it is also capable of using host file and adblock lists same as uBlock. uBlock and uMatrix functionality seems to convergence/convergate (what is correct English)?
Change My Rules to (starting from * * * block)
* * * allow
* * CSS allow
* 1st-party * allow
Reduce the Assets (blocklist used)
You can now import adblock lists also from Easylist, Adguard or DNS. From the defaults I only use MVPS Host and Peter Low (they have a good block-rate-list-size ratio for my browsing behavior, but that depends on your personal surfing habits)
- Enable MVPS Host from default list
- Enable Peter Low's list from default list
- Disable others (it makes no sense using malware blocking, then you are better using the MBAM extension)
