MODERATORS
I like grid for that because it's by default per-site permissions and also by default allows the sites own cookies while blocking any cookies for other domains.
It can involve some trial and error to get things working if the site uses a CDN or third party services for functionality, but I've found that it hasn't yet been necessary to enable any 3rd party cookies to get any functionality working (at least none that I wanted to get working, maybe other sites that use Google or fb accounts would automatically log me in if I had those ones enabled, but those are things I specifically want to block).
Usually I'll just need to enable some scripts and media from CDNs.
I hate nearly everything about web 2.0, if I could thanos snap away Javascript and CSS I would it with zero remorse or regret. Humanity was happier before CDNs.
