Alright, so what extensions are you guys looking forward to? On mobile I don't think about it too much cause most of the websites I use on Desktop I use as apps on Android, so a couple of website specific extensions are useless for me
Redirect amp to html, search by image, clear urls, localCDN, web archives, tampermonkey etc.🫡 So many useful extensions.
@ChristianWS I use ublock origin and dark reader. Sincerely I don't miss anything else. Maybe would be good add Clean URLs to remove trackers from URLs, other than that I wouldn't mind.
PS: Dahora ver mais um usuário do eco.br aqui!
Hey, let me enlighten you: uBlock Origin is even better than you think. Among others, ClearURLs is useless with uBlock Origin.
PS: Criei minha conta no lemmy.world mesmo, mas sou brasileiro. Legal ver outros por aqui!
@Kazevic great! I still got some trackers in the URL though (with both extensions lol) anyway one less extension to bloat my browser, ty!
Tamo junto!
uBlock and DandelionSprout's filter lists are a must!

uBlock was already available for Firefox for Android
Sponsor Block (+ the already existing uBlock origin) for an ad-free YouTube.
Currently using the fennec build Firefox with those add-ons and have since ditched the YouTube app. Works great so far as an ad-free/native alternative to apps like revanced or newpipe
Enhancer for Youtube is great too because it enables so much more UI fixes (and disables auto play :))
I use the Libretube app for that on my phone, it uses Piped to get the videos which tends to be a littpe more reliable than waiting for Newpipe updates and has Sponsorblock build in, for the next release we will even get Dearrow support build in! (Crowdsources titles and thumpnails to reduce clickbait)
Temporary containers and a tab group manager. Hopefully the firefox devs did not forget about the tab hiding API
