NoScript is terrible for UX. Every time I wanted to watch a video, or see a slideshow, etc, I had to right click, temporarily allow scripts (or whitelist domain)... It just made browsing tedious. I find AdBlock to be more than adequate, for most sites. The Chrome version isn't quite as good as the FF version, but it should improve.

If you enable the option to always temporarily whitelist the domain you are currently on, it gets a lot better.

That way, when you are on example.com, it will still load any scripts hosted on example.com, but not Facebook/Twitter/ad/other widgets.

Is this a new feature? I don't remember having that option when I played with it 2-3 years ago.
