    Seriously: Do NOT use similar-purposed blocker(s) along with uBlock Origin: this will cripple uBO's ability to defuse anti-blocker mechanisms and its ability to minimize likelihood of site breakage. ("similar-purposed" = any other blocker making use of EasyList).

        Pic shows filters which can be broken by other similar-purposed blockers. This on top of wasting CPU/memory resources: uBO already enforces EasyList. Also, Adblock Plus/AdBlock still suffer from https://www.extremetech.com/computing/182428-ironic-iframes-adblock-plus-is-probably-the-reason-firefox-and-chrome-are-such-memory-hogs … (possibly worst now, filter lists have grown since then)pic.twitter.com/5EpQFCzfhr

        Quick example of negative interference from using Adblock Plus along uBlock Origin. uBO: default settings ABP: check "Block additional tracking", uncheck "Allow Acceptable Ads" https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/ywk9wm/you-could-be-kicked-offline-for-piracy-if-this-music-industry-lawsuit-succeeds … Result: a 4-sec delay at page load time. No such delay with only uBO.

        My understanding is that Tracking Protection kicks in after uBO (or whatever blocker), and deals only with what is not blocked/redirected locally by extensions -- i.e. it should work harmoniously with uBO (my understanding, this needs confirmation)

        Is the combination of uMatrix and uBlock considered safe?

        This could also interfere, but then uMatrix breaks sites by default out of the box, as a result of its primary purpose. It's a matter of un-breaking by allowing in uMatrix whatever is needed.

        I cannot figure out why uBlock Origin with the same lists as Adblock Plus (up to date) fails to block Twitter ads. (And some other stuff IIRC.) (Adblock Plus is no option for me though since it makes Waterfox always start the maximum number of multithreads.)

        Twitter ads are blocked on my side. Did you disable cosmetic filtering on Twitter? Are these about the new Twitter (which so far I don't have). Best is to ask for support to help investigate your issue:https://www.reddit.com/r/uBlockOrigin/

        Should I disable tracking protection in Firefox?

        @gorhill, is there a way for you to warn users when there is a conflicting plugin?

    Loading seems to be taking a while.
