Not OP. I've been using NoScript until today, works as expected of course, but the hassle to have to enable specific scripts to make a useful website work outweighs its usefulness for me.

There's "NoJS", a extension where you can enable all JS through a switch, but it doesn't handle iframes very well at the moment.

Use uMatrix by uBlockOrigin author - now deprecated, but still useful

Or the maintained uBlockOrigin, in "I am an advanced user" mode where you get /almost/ a umatrix level ability to selectively enable bits and pieces.

You only have to do this once per website, so (unless you've already uninstalled it) you've already done the hard work time investment for the sites you visit most often.
