Used to go with I still don't care about cookies but heard it can default to accepting more cookies than needed

Configure uBlock Origin in medium mode

https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Blocking-mode:-medium-mode

set Firefox to delete cookies on quitting

Open the Application Menu (the three lines next to the puzzle piece) > Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies & Site Data > Click the Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed box > Done
