I understand why they deactivate add-ons for those sites, but is there maybe a setting in about:config I can toggle, or a config file I can edit, or something along those lines, that will circumvent this restriction?

Cheers big ears.

in about:config, try removing the pertinent domains from extensions.webextensions.restrictedDomains

i've never done this though, so caveat executor

Oh I need to try this. I hate getting flashbanged when I go to an add-on page (Dark reader my beloved)

It would help if you gave some more specifics. uBlock Origin works on mozilla.org for example. And I can happily block scripts on the addon page, breaking it.
