Ublock Origin is an obvious one, but I also can’t stand not having Foxy Gestures anymore. It adds customizable mouse gestures, so you can set it up to have easy swipes to go back a page, reload a page, close a tab, etc, and it feels wonderful and smooth to use compared to just using the traditional buttons to do everything. Honestly it’s kinda wild to me that this isn’t more popular now that people are so used to phone gestures. It’s good for the same reasons!

    In case you didn’t know, the “I don’t care about cookies” extension was recently sold to Avast. I don’t know if anyone has seen them make any sketchy changes yet, but personally I didn’t want to trust them and uninstalled it

      Oh, well, that’s too bad. Thank you for pointing this out!

      Apparently, there is now a debloated fork “I still don’t care about cookies”

      Why fork?

      This extension has been acquired by Avast and I simply don’t trust Avast with my data. >Additionally, having it on Github allows us to improve the code and add support for >websites faster.

        You could try Consent-O-Matic. That’s what I use. It also doesn’t simply agree to everything like the other one but chooses the most privacy-friendly option instead.

          Does this work for you? I have that filter enabled but it doesn’t really catch everything.

            I don’t know what filters you have specifically enabled, but I have all EasyList Annoyances and uBlock Annoyance lists enabled and they work fine. There may sometimes be something that these don’t get, but that happens quite rarely.
