Thanks for the kind words :). I didn't necessarily mean "useless" in a self-deprecating way. I only meant it in the sense of the linked article called "Write More 'Useless Software'"-- i.e. that it doesn't directly have a production use.
I'm curious what you mean about greasemonkey and noscript. Do you just mean you're astounded that such cool add-ons were made, or something else?
I more meant it's a fork in your personal browsing experience -- do you want to do a lot of risky customizations, or lock things down?
(To paint a picture, I'm writing this in TBB since it forces only HTTPs JS and I want to get an approximate picture of what others see, then then people complain about the obvious exit node I pop over to a public location's wifi with uBlock and NoScript and try to allow as little as possible.
Ah, I see. Wow, that is a high level of dedication to Internet privacy! With my work and interests I would 100% be incapable of using a combo of TOR, public wifi, and other locked-down browsers / networks. Props to you!
(still curious how people managed to make greasemonkey and noscript play out, i feel like my paranoia made me miss out on some fun things)
