    • 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.

    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 🤷‍♀️

    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 (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.

    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]

        Would you please let me know how do i get the same “all scripts are blocked” and allowlist specific domains only like in noscript? As far as i know ublock enable/disable javascript for whole website not subdomains. I could be wrong. And noscript have xss protection.

          I have used noscript for a long time but after trying umatrix (from the ublock origin developer) I doubt I’m going back since this one feels more powerful. Maybe you want to give that one a try 🙂. I use it alongside ublock.

    • Reopen closed Tabs

    I often want to reopen a tab i recently closed, so this is very handy for me.

    • Languagetool

    On the fly rule-based Spelling check. Works very good and in many languages. And the best: It’s Open Source.

    • Facebook-, Google- and Microsoftcontainer

    Uses the Firefox Tab-Container Fwature, to lock those companies in Tab-Groups just with themselves. I don’t use Tab-Groups aside of that, so it comes in handy.

    • Firefox Translate

    • (Not really an extention, but still nice) Firefox Gnome Theme, for my personal machines and Firefox UI Fix for the machines at work to make Firefox look more at home on Linux and Windows.

    Vimium-C.

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