Also, how's that compare to Consent-O-Matic in terms of effectiveness,safety (i.e. that it doesn't mangle the wrong thing on the site) and performance?

I use the EasyList ones, though I don't have any particular reason for that other than it is also the default "Ads" list chosen upon installation.

Dunno. I've never had any problems with it. All it does is hide the cookie banner DOM elements.

Not the op, but I just enable all of them.

It is a very rare for me to see a site that's broken by ublock origin.
