Yes, and I end up with such a long list it just doesn't work for me. I'm sure I'll give it another try at one point, but in the end it just is such a headache for me.

I would be happy to provide you my own NoScript configuration. I stuck through all the tinkering and reloading to find the minimal scripts that work across a wide variety of sites, so I could pass the export data to you if you'd like.

My problem is figuring out how to autosync what I enable on one website across other devices of mine; manual merging seems to be the only thing that works so far, so I do this ritual monthly.

@RotatingParts well, the "list" is the idea, just do it step by step 👍
