The only things I need are uBlock origin and consent-o-matic.

And then there is "TWP - translate web pages" as long as the native translation function doesn't cover any Asian languages.

Been using all three since forever, with custom collections on Fennec (Firefox-fork) you could already install add-ons for a long time.

I don't think you even need consent-o-matic. uBlock Origin can block the cookie popups (it's just not enabled by default)

More often than not the annoyance filter hides the popup/consent page in its entirety, without bypassing it, and the website is unusable.
