Library extension. Go to as page selling a book (Amazon, Powell's, etc.) and the extension will show you if you're local library has the book, how many copies, and if they're available for checkout. You can then click through and put a hold on the book.

Great cure for impulse buying of books. I've read more and bought less since using it.

ublock origin, dark background and light text

For vanilla FF I use multi - account containers, uBlock, and privacy badger.

For other FF forks like Librewolf, I get more blocky, like JShelter, a random agent switcher, and if that breaks a site beyond use I try Chameleon and NoScirpt.

JShelter and Decentraleyes. And uBlock Origins, but it's already popular without me. :)

[–] revanite@lemmy.zip 1 points 4 days ago

Why Decentraleyes and not LocalCDN (which I believe is more updated)?

I think Youtube Anti Translate only works on video titles and descriptions? There's Youtube No Translate which does the same and also keeps the audio track in the original language so you don't get a shitty AI dub

For me:

  • uBlock origin
  • Libredirect
  • Decentraleyes (Although I don't really know how much it really helps for privacy)

LocalCDN is more up to date then Decentralize.

[–] rirus@feddit.org 2 points 6 days ago

I use it with umatrix

[–] portnull@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 4 days ago

Apart from those already mentioned I need Sidebery

[–] Undertaker@feddit.org 3 points 6 days ago

Depends on the user.

For me it's uBlock Origin, NoScript, Cookie AutoDelete and Binnen-I be gone

Many commenters mentioned ublock, but don't forget to enable additional filters for shit like cookie banners or other annoyances

[–] shortwavesurfer@lemmy.zip 2 points 6 days ago

Ublock origin and privacy badger

[–] Jack_Burton@lemmy.ca 2 points 6 days ago (5 children)

No one mentioned Privacy Badger yet. Is there something I don't know?

Remove YouTube Suggestions (assuming you still use the YouTube client directly).

Also, Tampermonkey, to install single-site scripts that you can customize and with more limited permissions.
