You’d end up whitelisting sob many sites that it makes this approach worthless in my opinion.
Instead I’ve settled on blocking scripts by default and whitelisting subdomains until the site works. It does require more time and effort, but it’s probably the only way to meaningfully block parts of javascript apart from just not using that website.
Depending on how exactly you so this, you’ll end up with a huge filter list. Mine in uBlock Origin has 245kB when exported.
You do end up whitelisting a lot of sites, but seeing that a site is using Javascript this way lets you weigh up if you feel it’s worth the security risk to enable it or not.
