ublock origin with the annoyance list activated.

dark reader. It’s not perfect but I get most sites in a usable dark mode.

That’s mostly it.

Same, all you really need. Maybe also password manager extensions for the added phishing protection

Yeah, I didn’t include my Enpass extension, as it’s more like a plug-in.

I also excluded TamperMonkey because I solely use it to sell my Steam cards and become filthy rich. Already 34 cents into my first million.

And last but not least: an extension that auto-upvotes YT videos from my subscribed channels because I’m too lazy to do it manually and YT can’t be bothered to assign a key to it.

In my testing, dark reader made sites load much slower. Anyone else notice this?

Dark Reader is entirely client side, so it shouldn’t affect load times.

Render times may increase significantly though depending on cpu((/gpu?).

This is my experience as well. Noticable slowdown after installing it. But IMO, it’s still worth it.

In my experience enabling some of the annoyance lists broke several websites and it took a while to realise why. I do use the cookie consent list but no longer use any annoyance lists.

Double upvote for bitwarden, since OP is switched browser, they defenetly need move all their passwords. No need to use built in Firefox manager. Don’t forget to use password export from Chrome.

Also browser password manager couldn’t be more unsafe…

honestly it’s fine if you’re generating different passwords for every service and you’re just storing the less important ones there for convenience.

Used to use lastpass before they became paid. I haven’t even remembered that until I read your comment. Bitwarden is great.

What’s the point if having NoScript AND uBlockOrigin? ubo does everything noscript does, but better

It does have some rather specific use cases but if you need it it’s amazing. Way better than chrome profiles imo

Also any sort of privacy redirector, specifically to go to nitter instead of xitter, is a must have

Something not so far mentioned is Tree Style Tab.

If you habitually have a lot of tabs open, you’ll probably know how annoying it is finding things when each page title has been condensed down to 4-5 characters. On widescreen displays (especially 16:9), vertical pixels are also a lot more precious, while horizontal ones are plentiful.

For me (3840×2160 display, 200% scale), its vertical tab sidebar fits about 30 tabs before needing a scrollbar, and you get a full width title for each and every one.

It can be a bit of an adjustment at first, but I’ve been using this since the pre-WebExtensions days (since around Firefox 4.0), it’s definitely one of my must-haves.

This changed my habitual way of working with browsers for the better, can’t recommend it enough. I’m using Sidebery though, not sure of the differences, but I really like its snapshot feature.

Can’t recommend TreeStyleTabs enough!

Not only does it trade off precious vertical space for plentiful horizontal space, but also the tabs get organized hierarchical, so when searching and opening multiple tabs , the tabs get grouped naturally

If you like Tree Style Tabs I’d also recommend trying Sideberry. Does the same thing but has some additional functionality.
