Always wondered how stuff like this/Decentraleyes etc work (or not, as the case may be) if you already have Ublock origin running.

Well at least Decentraleyes states in their page that "Complements regular content blockers" [1]

Decentraleyes caches important JavaScript includes without which most sites don't work. UBlock origin won't block those because it'll break too much.
