Its unmaintained and using it together with uBlock Origin can supposedly (not tested it myself) lead to uMatrix undermining uBlock Origin. Even Arkenfox recommends against using uMatrix.
Sure, but there’s no other alternatives to it, at least none which give the same matrix/grid style editor. I’m willing to accept the potential attack surface caused by running an unmaintained addon, as it currently does reduces it far more than i would think increase.
Fair, for me personally running a privacy oriented addon that is unmaintained and thus cant keep up with new developments seems not worth it. But I get your point. I wish uMatrix wasnt abandoned.

uBlock Origin isnt just an adblocker, but a wide spectrum blocker. It wouldnt necessarily show itself by ads suddenly appearing. At least, thats what Gorhill himself says.
