    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 love Simple tab groups, great way to save tabs for later.

      I'm also definitely going to give Consent-o-matic a try

    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.

            as far as i know umatrix is unmaintained. so the default ublock + noscript seems the best combination.

              Umatrix became unmaintained because ublock origin can handle most of its use cases. You just need to run Ublock origin in medium or hard mode. More info ca he found on wiki: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Blocking-mode:-medium-mode

      fucking awful files

      Webp and Heic are great inventions and we shouldn't hate them. We should hate the image viewer and editing program developers for still not supporting them.

    Vimium-C.

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

    Awesome thread!

    Indispensable: UBlock Origin, Bitwarden

    Handy: Tab Stash, I Don't Care About Cookies, Dark Reader

    Testing (based on thread): Consent-O-Matic and SponsorBlock

    • Checker Plus for Gmail - Great way for me to see incoming emails in multiple inboxes, and mark as read/unread or respond
    • Open With - quickly open a webpage in another browser
    • SponsorBlock for YouTube - skips ads and sponsor segments in YouTube videos
    • uBlock Origin - The best adblocker
    • Video Speed Controller - Allows you to change the speed of a video, outside the normally allowed range (some slower videos are much better at 3x)
    • Snap Links - Lets you draw a rectangle and opens all links inside. Great for checking out a list of links, like the links in this comment, for example
