    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.

      Tried consent-o-matic yesterday, it saved me a bunch of clicks and F12s to hide remove 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.

      You nearly tricked me to install a vim plugin. I’d never be able to exit my browser again! /s

    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.

      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.

      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

    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.

    1. UBO (lots of links already in this thread)
    2. LocalCDN

    Ublock origin is a requirement for all browsers, not just firefox. So definitely that one.
