      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.

      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.

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