Are there any addons as essential as uBlockOrigin? (lemmy.world)

I would love to find extensions that make me think "How did I live without this?"

ClearURLs is nice, it makes links a lot shorter and removes all the tracking junk from it. I also can't live without SponsorBlock and Return YouTube Dislike

You can achieve ClearURLs directly in uBlock Origin.

Can also add lists to your filters to assist. "Actually Legitimate URL Shortener Tool" and "ClearURLs for uBo" are the ones I am aware of.

This was an amazing change as ClearURLs sometimes did mess with some sites.
