Must have is quite personal tho
Not a plugin but also consider using searx. Recent convert but love it
uBlock Origin and some kind of mouse gesture with rocker commands extension. Those are the only two universal types I use. Everything else I can't live with is pretty specific to my own usage to alter the function of specific websites (like RES for Reddit, but for other sites).
Sidebery is much better from my experience.
Might not be a useful plugin, but fans of Terry Pratchett might like the GNU Terry Pratchett idea. For librewolf I use this slightly updated add-on which fixes some minor issues (source available).
Since it hasn't been mentioned yet, NoScript imo. Some sites run an absolutely absurd amount of scripts and the majority are not required for the site to function. So at best, there's no value from letting them run.
I prefer uBlock Origin on hard mode instead, personally. Of course it probably isn't as through.
That used to be a must-have for me about 20 years back, but today, it just breaks too much on too many websites.
I could maybe see selectively-blacklisting particularly obnoxious websites, but I don't think that whitelisting them is really practical today.

Flagfox, not that useful but it's interesting to see
For me, I cannot go without the flagfox extension on PC. Otherwise, I'd probably just be going over extensions everyone else has been beating like a dead horse.
Can you explain why? I installed Flagfox and it's interesting especially cos I used to be a web dev but I don't get why you'd really need to have it? No offence I just wanna know if I'm missing some hidden feature! 😂
I just use it because I like to see where a website's server is supposedly located. No hiddeb features, just server location.
Other than ublock:
You really don't need anything besides uBlock Origin. With that said:
About some other ones that are mentioned:
Other:
IIRC, Privacy Badger and Decentraleyes are no longer necessary with uBlock Origin. Neither is HTTPS Everywhere.
