MODERATORS
Somewhat off topic, but related question for everyone: some time ago on Lemmy I saw somebody making a list of awesome Firefox extensions that would make the general browsing experience better. I was not smart and installed some add-ons right away and I forgot their names
I usually have unblock origin, no script, privacy badger always on, but I seem to remember one or two more that sounded cool, like one that should reject all cookies everywhere and never make me click them
Do you have cool recommendations?
Sponsor block, because sponsor segments are ads and darkreader because dark mode is just better
Thanks! I already use dark reader so much I've become a vampire and can't stand anything with white background!
Some other plugins I would recommend: Decentraleyes- prevents tracking from CDN Sponsorblock- skips youtube sponsored segments Clearurls- makes the url field in browser cleaner by removing tracking segments Dark Reader- dark theme for websites Soundfixer- change volume for the webpage User-agent switcher and manager- pretty useful user agent switcher Violentmonkey- one of many script managers. You can download scripts from greasyfork, etc.
And some other plugins that are interesting: Flagfox- shows flag for the location of the website Terms and Service; Didn't Read- shows you the terms of service of the website, compiled by volunteers Bypass Paywalls Clean- bypasses paywalls of news websites. Unfortunately it has been removed from Firefox plugins website so you would have to download it via the plugin author's gitlab
Most of the plugins are good to use on Android too. You just need to make a plugin collection and select it in the Fennec browser. Having ublock origin, Dark Reader, and Violentmonkey makes browsing on Android so much better
Mull is a superior fork of Fennec.
Holy cow! This is a very long list of add-ons! I'll try them out, thanks! I didn't see either the Fennec or the Mull browsers on the Google Play Store. I suppose I need to install them separately
Edit: grammar
You're welcome!
