Firefox

Ublock origin ofc

Ublock Origin and Vimium C. That's it.

I used Dark Reader until last week, when I discovered a native Firefox setting that does the job better: Settings > Language and appearance > Colors > Manage > set background to Black and override to Always.

No more white flashes, EVER (yes, I tried absolutely everything but on some sites there was nothing to be done, even with every possible CSS hack). And no more add-on speed penalty (to be fair it was small, and Dark Reader is still an amazing tool).

Now the web looks pretty ugly but it is fast and always dark. White flashes banished FOREVER.

• Ublock origin: block ads
• Vimium: browse with vim like keystrokes
• Firenvim: edit text areas in neovim
• Dark reader: dark colors on webpages
• Containers: isolate browsing data

• uBlock Origin
• Dark Reader
• KeePassXC-Browser
• Skip Redirect
• Return YouTube Dislike
• SponsorBlock
• Reverse Image Search

I absolutely love Tree Style Tabs. I usually have a ton of tabs open (middle mouse click is my best friend) and that helps me keep it all organized, and quickly close all the ones I don't need anymore. I also did a change in the profile settings for Firefox to get rid of the normal tabs so now I only have the tree ones. (I don't really remember how I did that though, it was ages ago and involved editing some files in appdata)

Ublock [1] and Noscript [2] are must have. you could also checkout Privacy Badger [3].

If you use arkenfox user.js [4] you could also use I still don't care about cookies [5]

I see some of these have already been mentioned, but they do deserve repeating;

• µBlock Origin - blocks ads, and does it well.
• Privacy Badger - blocks trackers, rewrites some tracking URLs, etc.
• Multi-Account Containers - for those places where you want to keep tabs separate, giving each container its own cookies/session/etc.
• Consent-O-Matic - automatically handles a lot of pages that shove annoying (and often technically GDPR-illegal due to lacking a quick "reject all" button) consent forms in your face.
• Imagus - shows linked images on hover, including support for galleries and scrolling through all the images contained.

• uBlock Origin: Blocks ads, annoying popups and cookie banners.
• Bitwarden: For password management and logins.
• SponsorBlock: Skips sponsors and self-promotions on YouTube. A huge time-saver.

Vimium-C.

Well, it goes right after UBlock Origin, which was mentioned many times already.

Tree style tabs, which gives vertical tabs that you can arrange in a hierarchy to keep related ones together

Simple tab groups, which lets you have multiple sets of open tabs you can switch between (can you tell I have a problem with too many tabs?)

Unstick!, which when clicked removes any sticky elements, i.e. parts of the page that stay on your screen while you scroll. It's great for removing all the bars and obstructions to reading that pages like to put in your way. For some reason I have to click it twice for it to work

Read aloud, a good text to speech extension to read pages or parts of pages to you. It can be used with cloud based neural voices from Google and Amazon with some setup

Consent-o-matic, which gets rid of the cookie consent popups for you and it's configurable as to which types of cookies it will refuse or consent to for you

SponsorBlock for YouTube, which can auto skip sponsor reads and various other kinds of segments you select to be skipped

A few short months ago I would have said RES but, well 🤷‍♀️

• uBlock Origin (of course)
• Tab Stash: It lets you organize your tabs into groups and keep the groups around in a sidebar that unloads them when you don't need them at the moment. Very helpful for someone like me who always has a bunch of tabs open.
• uBlacklist: It lets you blacklist domains from showing up in search results. It supports different search engines. Every helpful to get rid of SEO spam sites and mirror sites.
• Duplicate Tabs Closer: It detects when you have multiple tabs open for the same webpage.

Decentraleyes, ublock origin, consent-o-matic

Consent o matic it automatically fills out the gdpr boxes with your preferences. And it is developed by a danish university, so seems pretty safe. :)

All of this may beg the question: What add-ons would we like to see?

One that doesn't exist is QOI Viewer that would render the Quite OK image format into a png for Firefox to display.

uBlock Origin, Tridactyl, and Translate Web Pages.

User Agent Spoofer whenever I need it.
