UBlock Origin
NoScript
HTTPSEverywhere

edit: “isn’t this implemented in-browser?” comments: maybe, but it’s to the browser’s implementation. These plugins are reviewable separate from their analogous browser implementation.

Belt & suspenders approach. Camp on it.

governorkeagan ,

“Sponsor Block” is a game changer as well

deranger ,

Isn’t NoScript redundant if you run UBO in medium mode?

Roughly similar to using Adblock Plus with many filter lists + NoScript with 1st-party scripts/frames automatically trusted. Unlike NoScript however, you can easily point-and-click to block/allow scripts on a per-site basis.

I thought HTTPS everywhere was baked into browsers now and didn’t need to be installed anymore? Is that not correct?

safesyrup ,

Yes i think firefox will do it if configured correctly

Im using Firefox/a fork of it - please note that many of the below mentioned extensions either only exist for Firefox or don’t work well with Chromium browsers due to manifest V3.

  • UBlock Origin
  • I still don’t care about cookies
  • CanvasBlocker
  • Multi account containers
  • Dark Reader
  • FlagFox
  • (Bitwarden)
safesyrup ,

Id replace „still dont care about cookies“ with consent-o-magic. It actually deselects tracking cookies instead of ignoring/acknowleding them

JustCopyingOthers ,

For Firefox: uBlock origin (of course)

Privacy Badger - controls which sites are allowed to use cookies

Mind the time - tracks time spent on various Web sites

Video DownloadHelper - detects media and allows you to download and transcode it.

Bitwarden - password manager

slazer2au ,

Adnausem. Built on top of unlock origin it will simulate clicks on ads it hides to mess up your advertising profile. Also has an ad vault so you can see the adverts it is hiding.

Consent-o-matic. Run by a Danish uni, it will auto deny all cookie popups by actually opting out of everything for you.

metaStatic ,

I usually don't get to post anything in these because everyone basically uses the same plugins to unfuck the internet
so heres a few that haven't been posted yet

I was a mad Opera user about 25 years ago, it was the best browser by miles at the time. One feature it had was mouse gestures. Mouse gestures and uBlock origin are the only two extensions I can’t love without, but these lists never mention them so I feel like the only one who uses them.

It’s hard to explain how cool and quick it is to be able to control your browser with the mouse. Open/close tabs, navigate tabs, back/forward etc. It doesn’t sound useful, I’m usually a mad keyboard shortcut fiend. But with web browsing in particular, your hand is already on the mouse, scrolling.

The specific extension I use is Gesturefy, I encourage people to install it and give mouse gestures a go.

ganymede ,

Gesturefy just installed now, seem great so far. ty

Vivaldi (chromium) fully supports gestures and happens to have the best tab management on the market. Highly recommended.

May only be available on Firefox:

Better Youtube Shorts (the shorts act more like normal videos, with rewind controls etc)

Decentraleyes (should help with website load speed by not fetching all the common CDN hosted stuff, as well as provide better privacy)

Song Identifier

wizardbeard ,

Related to CDN stuff, there’s LocalCDN, which I believe downloads the most commonly used scripts from various CDNs and hosts them locally, reducing the amount of tracking they can do as they aren’t being pulled from the source each time.

savedbythezsh ,

That’s what decentraleyes does as well

Ublock Origin, NoScript, Chameleon, Libredirect, DarkReader, OneTab, Stack Overflow Prettifier, Classic Mode For Wikipedia, Vimium

github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions if you’re a twitch user. Ublock by itself doesn’t have a way to handle twitch ads, last I checked.

Ublock origin

ShaunaTheDead ,

I haven't seen anyone mention these yet

LibRedirect - redirects common proprietary sites to a free and open source alternative
Tampermonkey - allows you to find and install custom open source scripts that add functionality to websites

WhyJiffie ,

Check out ViolentMonkey, it’s an open source userscript manager

ShaunaTheDead ,

I think that's basically the same thing as Tampermonkey. There's also GreasyFork which hosts custom scripts.

Waveform ,

For Firefox:

UBlock Origin, of course.

And that extension that turns all Reddit pages into old Reddit pages. (I hate the redesign with a passion.)

TehBamski OP ,
@TehBamski@lemmy.world avatar

Reddit Enhancement Suite I believe is the one you are referencing.

Waveform ,

On Android I’m using Old Reddit Redirect. (I imagine just changing the URL is simpler, besides I’m not there enough to desire tons of features… I don’t even have a Reddit acct. currently.)

On PC I just use old reddit boolmarks, and a bookmarklet that toggles to old Reddit :D

sleepyTonia ,
@sleepyTonia@programming.dev avatar

No, this one is on life support and it’s the one which injects extra controls for image links, Twitter links and whatnot. The one you are thinking of is banned old Reddit redirect. And yeah, couldn’t use Reddit without it

  • uBlock Origin (of course)
  • Snowflake by The Tor Project

YouTube:

  • Unhook: Remove YouTube Recommended Videos Comments
  • SponsorBlock - Skip Sponsorships on YouTube
  • FireMonkey/ViolentMonkey/Greasemonkey with the “YouTube Age Restriction Bypass” userscript
vikinghoarder ,

I never remember the user scripts, gotta check that

10_0 ,

Ublock, decentralize, adblockplus, noscript, snowflake. (This is what I used on ff, but I use brave for a while now and its so much easier, brave + invidious)

ivn ,

Decentralise and adblockplus do nothing uBlock Origin doesn’t already do. You can remove them. Also it’s uBlock Origin, not just uBlock.
