Ublock origin, consent o matic
I would flip origin for Adnausem. It is built on top of unlock origin and it will click on the ads behind the scene and messes your digital footprint.
I love that, what a great idea!
Tried consent-o-matic yesterday, it saved me a bunch of clicks and F12s to
hideremove cookies popups that always covers my screen… thanks!
uBlock Origin and I don’t care about cookies. They’re essential for me.
Just so you know IDCAC was bought by Avast, which is being bought by Norton/Symantec. There’s “I still don’t care about cookies” or the built in uBlock cookie banner options as a replacement.
Apart from what others mentioned I’d suggest installing DeArrow, from the maker of SponsorBlock. It gets rid of clickbait titles and thumbnails on YouTube.
But then where will I get to see an overexposed background image, some all caps text, and a portrait of someone with their mouth open, all at once?
You can click the dearrow button next to all thumbnails to see the original title and image.
DeArrow
OMG This makes Youtube useable!!! Honestly, it just relieved so much anxiety for me.

You nearly tricked me to install a vim plugin. I’d never be able to exit my browser again! /s
you say it like it’s a bad thing
Not exiting the browser or using vim?
yes
I see…
¡Ay, sí!

People have already covered the great ones so I will mention one of the more obscure.

Holy shit. Been looking for an addon like this
uBlock Origin and SponsorBlock
Ublock origin (Adblocker)
Sponsor Block(YouTube sponspor skip)
Clickbait remove (remove those awful thumbnails)
Bitwarden Password Manager
Clearurls (clean trackers in url)
Bonus
What about ghostery? I just started using it and I really like it, but, I just started using it :-)
I have heard that Ghostery was sponsored by the ad industry to collect data. Been a while though.
Try ublock matrix for an alternative.
Clearurls sounds divine. I’m always deleting that extra bs.
The only add-on that I consider necessary is uBO (with advanced settings).
All others are very good to have installed, in fact I use many of them, but I can live on just fine without them.
Dark reader screws up some sites for me, I prefer “dark background and light text” cuz it’s more comprehensive and you can customize the asset colors
uBO and noscript
Unlock origin, fast forward, dark reader, turbo downloader 3, sponsor block and terms of service; didn’t read.
- UBO (lots of links already in this thread)
- LocalCDN
- Linguist Translator - use the Bergamot engine for total privacy
- ClearURLs
Bitwarden, cookie autodelete
Ublock origin is a requirement for all browsers, not just firefox. So definitely that one.
Outside of already mentioned:
- Throttle Tabs – hides and closes tabs beyond a limit
- LibRedirect – redirects to alternative frontends of sites (for example youtube)
- Firefox Translations – offline translations
- Web Archives
