There are some websites that I feel deserve to have me disable uBlock so that they get a little support from me even if it is not much or maybe nothing, is it worth doing that risking my privacy or is what the site creators can get from me doing that so little that it is just not worth it? Or are there any other alternatives, other than of course donating?

I use Firefox with uBlock, I know well that with Brave I can donate BAT to supported sites but honestly I don’t like Brave and I don’t want to switch to Brave being perfectly fine in Firefox.

    You can always just Whitelist that webpage while blocking other trackers, also purchasing content off of there website

    Not really. Allowing any form of advertising will harm your privacy because you will be tracked. You could use Tor Browser which would make the advertising requests anonymous and prevent anything from being saved.

    I think in firefox you can disable plugin scanning in about:config (it might be plugin.scan.plid.all).
