Back on Opera 12

Back on Opera 12, I would run with javascript off. It was easy to set exceptions for known sites. And I had clickboxes in the toolbar for easily toggling js, plug-ins, and cookies on or off.

I have not been able to get current Opera to do that. I leave the Settings tab up, and go there to turn js on and off. Site preferences can still be set, but it's more of a hassle.

Also suggested: get YouTube Downloader and don't watch anything live-streaming. There are good reasons.
