Thanks! Came back to actually add an edit or reply to mention that I found an issue on darkreader issues with a resolution for putting in a custom filter to unlock origin! Worked perfectly.

Question in the issues that did come up is... Why are they doing this? Only reason as some others mentioned sounds like it would be for tracking purposes which contradicts what their model is about. Seems like there's no winning search engine for privacy, just the least of all evils? Lol. Glad to at least be back to using it for now.
