with ublock origin you would have to edit the blocklist and add the url you want to block/unblock. with umatrix you have a table like this:
you can block/unblock domains, and also change the global configuration. I, by default, block all javascript and XHR and enable some if they are needed.
That does seem better for fine grained control. Personally I don’t really bother with much outside the block lists, and the defaults work well, so uBlock Origin has been fine for me.
yeah, uBlock origin usually works, but it doesn’t block everything. uMatrix is a bit of a compromise between ublock origin and disabling javascript.
