    As with everyone else, I agree that Ublock origin is the first wonder of the world.

    Also up there however is just password managers in general, be that bitwarden, lastpass, protonpass, etc...

    I'll add ViolentMonkey (run arbitrary custom script on a site), and Stylus (add custom CSS to a site). These are great for adding extra features/utilities to a site you use a lot, adding dark mode to a website that doesn't support it, etc.

    Is this similar to TamperMonkey? (i.e. userscripts)

    I don't know what I'd do without it!

    uBlock Origin, duh.

    Privacy Badger.

    Mouse Gestures (any of them, there's multiple).

    Reader view, because sometimes all you need is the text, in a pleasantly readable format.

    Love how you gave uBlock Origin as a starter already, so we don't need to repeat that obvious champion over and over again, yet almost nobody can take a hint.

    I think a chrome update nixed it, but I used the heck out of Imagus. All it does is expand to a full size image when you hover over an image on a website.

    I really need to get that working again. I'm constantly hovering over images for no reason still.

    Pocket used to be on my list, but it was unfortunately shut down. Now Joplin web clipper took its place. I still miss Pocket.

    I don't even have 7 extensions enabled in my main browser. I have:

    • uBlock Origin
    • Multi-Account Containers
    • Temporary Containers
    • KeePassXC
    • Return youtube dislike

    Other than uBlock Origin, I don't think they are worthy of "Wonder of the world" status.

    I only have two; uBlock Origin and Firefox Multi-Account Containers.

    Those are the only two I use all the time (I like to keep things clean and simple and avoid fingerprinting, there are others that I might enable for a specific task), and I consider them essential enough that they ought to be built into the browser.

    I also use Temporary containers for all the sites I don't explicitly assign to a persistent container. How do you handle this? Is there a way to delete cookies just for the default (non) containers? Is there a way to fully isolate the sites in the default one?

    If anyone is still following this post, I just came across TrackerControl for Android.
    It finds all tracker traffic in installed apps and blocks it! It even blocks in-app ads!
    It blows my mind, had been hoping for such an app for ages!
    It might take some tweaking for some apps to function properly, but it is pretty self explanatory.
    Beats every app I've ever come across! 🤍

    I prefer Adnauseam over uBlock Origin.

    It uses uBlock Origin as a base, but extends it to click on ads in addition to blocking them.

    Just found a new one that works wonders: Click to Remove Element.
    Never seen anything so precise and clear to hide unwanted elements. And it can remember for future sessions. Awesome!

    I couldn’t live without FoxyGestures (formerly FireGeatures) anymore. I’ve been using it for over 15 years.
