Is there a browser add-on that automatically whitelists (or what ever the current en vogue term for that is) javascript from FOSS code running websites by comparing the JS files to a hash or something like that?
Yes, I am somewhat aware of this… but I think this needs support on the side of the website code itself, right? I was rather thinking about a pure client-side option.
Edit: ok the white listing works client side only, but some sort of automated hash based system that I could install on the browser of my hypothetical grandmother would still be great to have.

It should be possible to run uBlock origin in hard mode with a custom dynamic filtering allowlist for trusted sites.
Sure, but that wouldn’t work on various instances of Peertube running the same javascript code on different domains.
Not perfect, hogs a little too much memory for comfort, sometimes doesn’t even work on the FSF members forum, but LibreJS is what you are looking for.
ooo this is exactly what I’ve been wanting

Just use a decent ad-blocker for that, uBlock origin is the best. Blocking everything by default will just make your grandma confused
