    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

    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.

        I started there. But then it migrated to pentadactyl, which i had trouble installing. Tridactyl was an improvement, and honestly would work great for me… But id already switched…

        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.

    Channel Blocker for YouTube. Stop all those horseshit channels from reappearing in your suggestions.

    Control Panel for Twitter. Allows you to customise your homepage by removing / changing parts of the UI, blocking ads and whatnot.

    Save webP as png / jpg. Right-click to save those fucking awful files as something you can actual use.

    Unwanted Twitch. Add channels / games / tags and keywords to a universal blacklist that stops them from appearing in the ‘Browse’ or recommended sections. Great for filtering out mince like IRL streams, shit like LoL etc. and chud streamers.

      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.

    • 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.

        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.
