guys i wanna share my favorite firefox extensions just because. i want to! so here
so first we have our bare essentials, UBlock Origin and Privacy Badger. the best adblocker youll ever have that even works on youtube (which sometimes yt cracks down on it, just reload over and over or switch to a private browsing tab and paste your video to watch it there with no ads, works every time and in a day or two it'll be working just fine again), and badger blocks hidden trackers while you're browsing
Port Authority blocks malicious websites from scanning your computer
Privacy Possum fucks up any commercial data a site gathers from your computer and reports back false info instead of your real info
ClearURLs gets rid of all the tracking elements in your URLs, and instead just gives you the straight site
Consent-O-Matic automatically handles (or at least minimmizes) the cookie pop-ups you have to agree or decline to, and declines everything except what's necessary for the site to run (and you can customize it as well)
Cookie AutoDelete does what it sounds like it does. When you close your tab, it gets rid of any unnecessary cookies from the site
Decentraleyes protects against tracking through "free", centralized, content delivery
LocalCDN is a fork of Decentraleyes that emulates content delivery networks and prevents 3rd party tracking
Location Guard hides your geographic location from websites, or reports a fake one. It doesn't replace a VPN, but prevents location tracking from being too precise by adding noise
CanvasBlocker and Chameleon help stop JavaScript from fingerprinting your visited sites and spoofs your info respectively
TrackMeNot protects you against search data profiling by giving false searches to the sites requesting information, similar to possum
FlagFox puts a little country flag in your searchbar telling you where the website's server is located
Anti-Adblock Blocker is what it sounds like, it blocks the majority of common anti-adblock solutions
SponsorBlock and Return Youtube Dislike skip sponsored segments on yt and bring back the dislike stats on videos
Hide Google AI Overviews, Slop Evader, and Microslop get rid of the annoying AI overview that's not even right more than half the time at the top of your searches, removes most AI results, and will change every instace of the word Micros*ft on your computer to Microslop even in youtube subtitles
Malwarebytes Browser Guard has saved me from malicious links a handful of times, and doesn't flag every little thing ever (Malwarebytes is great to have on your computer in general, it can scan your computer for anything unsafe and quarantine anything that is, for free. you can get antivirus too if you pay)
Chrome Mask some websites are little pieces of shit and don't want us to have nice things, so if they only work for chrome, just turn this on and boom baby your site works it thinks you're on chrome
Nitter Redirect if you're like me and refuse to get on twitter but still want to be able to view links your favorite people send you, this lets you look at them without making an account
Ghostery - Privacy Adblocker helps take care of anything your other adblockers or cookie handlers might have missed, and helps speed up your browsing experience
Animalese Typing 10/10 no notes
CustomTube restores old Youtube UI in case you miss it
And I also use DuckDuckGo ofc
anyway cool stuff thanks bye
