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]

No script is redundant with ublock origin on advanced mode.
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

For I don’t care about cookies, uBO has a list for that.
I have that list enabled, the pop-ups still hang around. I don’t care about cookies tends to catch them. I don’t know why there’s a difference.
uBlock Origin of course and Malwarebytes Browser Guard (because I’m fortunate enough to have one of those coveted lifetime keys)
The ones I am unable to use a browser without:
- Sidebery
- Darkreader
- Bitwarden
- uBlock origin
- uMatrix (even if it won’t get any more updates)
- Firefox Multi account containers (although I probably can just do this with Sidebery)
Nice to haves:
- Tabby
- Don’t Fuck With Paste (this is really nice when login pages try to prevent password manager for “Security” reasons)
- Augmented Steam
- ProtonDB for Steam
- Imagus
- HTTPS everywhere (because websites still to this day can’t set a proper redirect)
- Facebook container
- LanguageTool (semi open-source alternative to Grammarly)
- Invidious (this redirects YouTube links to invidious instance selector)(There are like 4 different ones, all not updated in 2–4 years, I am thinking of learning enough coding to support this)
- Tabliss (this is a nice new tab where I can add reminders of what I am supposed to be doing instead of what I am doing)
- Custom Scrollbars
- User-Agent Switcher and Manager
I used to have plugins for reddit (like RES and old reddit redirect), but won’t need them anymore.
@hal_5700X @techognito firefox has this functionality backed in.

What does Mute Twitch Ads do? Does it just mute ads? But not block them?
uBlock origin
- 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 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.
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.
Does consent-o-matic also rejects them or just accepts them?
@Daefsdeda @ace you can choose what kind of cookies to accept and reject in the extension’s settings.
Thanks that is amazing
I use I don’t care about cookies, I wonder how different it is from consent-o-matic
FYI- I was about to install “I don’t care about cookies” when I noticed all the 1 star reviews. People saying its been purchased by Avast and is now data mining.
“I still don’t care about cookies” is a community fork, does the same thing but isn’t owned by a big company.
Go damn it, why corporations are always ruining good things.
Thank you for the information
There was an imagus fork which is actively maintained
Wow, Consent-O-Matic sounds super interesting. I’m definitely going to give this one a try
Anyone here use AdNauseam?
I do! Though I’m not sure how well it works since I also use uBlock and have a Pihole on my network lol
Either use AdNauseam or Ublock origin, not both at the same time. PiHole is fine tho.
