I thought I would create a discussion here so people can share which referer modification settings they find beneficial.

Since a default referer of Target seems to work well in almost all cases, let's assume that default, and share exceptions.

Here's the proposed format: Target | Action | Replacement | Site being Fixed | Functionality Fixed | Date Discovered (because the only thing constant is change)

The "date discovered" can be an approximate if you don't remember.

I'll lead with a few:

cdpn.io | Prune | N/A | All sites containing codepen.io examples | Allow the codepen examples to load | 2020/01/01 signin.ebay.com | Prune | N/A | ebay.com | Logging in | 2021/10/01 hcaptcha.com | Prune | N/A | Don't remember | Allow captcha to work | 2021/01/01
