Favourite browser extensions?

Why two adblock? Skip Adblock Plus. If Adblock Plus blocks more, you do not have the correct rules in uBlock Origin.

uMatrix and uBlock Origin are a bit the same as well!

I recall trying to remove Adblock Plus but there were popups or something else I didn’t like, so I just decided to keep my ‘bomb everything, just incase’ approach, lol. :rofl: With how uMatrix doesn’t auto-block now, but uBlock Origin does, I prefer to keep both, plus it’s easier to go to uMatrix and just switch and set stuff to ‘off’, as well; good backup.

Firefox here.

  • Ublock Origin
  • Old Reddit Redirect
  • Download Cleaner Lite
  • Duckduckgo !bangs

On firefox, beyond the usual privacy and adblocking stuff…

  • VimVixen (vim keys for ff, same thing as Vimium or Tridactyl basically)
  • Zotero connector, lets me add stuff to my bibliography manager
  • Firefox Notes, which unfortunately is about to be obsoleted
  • Pinboard, which attaches to my Pinboard.in bookmarks account
  • Tabliss, prettier and more useful new tab pages

Firefox with modified Js.pref and these addons:

as i not use google
DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials

In addition to adblocker / privacy-addons I really recommend

gesturefy
KeepassXC-Browser
ReloadMatic

Ublock Origin - for obvious reasons.

Gnome Extensions - because I use Gnome

Black Menu - It’s an extension for having drop down page for Google search, Gmail, YouTube, etc for if I want to check something without going to a new tab or opening a side-by-side window. It’s not perfect, other stuff like Google Play Music opens a new tab, but it works fine until I find a better alternative.

These are my favorite browser extensions : Save to pocket, Google Translator, LastPass.

seems most of you only read the title :rofl:
so I would recommend this one for you:
