The default is disable everything (otherwise it's not GDPR compliant). That banner is to try to trick you into accepting the same old.

You're better off finding a good cookie/GDPR banner blocker

ah I see, so basically the uBlock list that blocks from displaying these is all I need.

"EasyList Cookie" is the name of that list.

thank you, there are other sites[1] (mostly non English) that still can get out of it. I'm trying to manually block it, but it uses random ids. Is there a method for that?

Sorry for the late answer, I've played with it a bit and can't get rid of it reliably.

Do you have tampermonkey or anything like that? Maybe you could make a JS snipped that get's rid of those elements...
