Yesterday I asked you guys what your favorite addons are. Here is a compiled list plus some of my own recommendations:
Essential:
uBlock Origin (ad + malicious content blocker)
Consent-o-matic (auto-decline cookies + tracking) recommended by @slazer2au@lemmy.world
Privacy:
Multi-Account-Containers (isolate tabs and websites) recommended by @Iceblade02@lemmy.world
Temporary Containers (like Multi-Account-Containers, deletes cache & cookies automatically)
uMatrix (advanced content blocker)
ClearURLs recommended by @padge@lemmy.zip
LocalCDN (use local frameworks) recommended by @Kerb@discuss.tchncs.de
CookieAutoDelete recommended by @ooli@lemmy.world
YouTube:
SponsorBlock recommended by @Kelly@lemmy.world
DeArrow (replace obnoxious thumbnails) recommended by @shrugal@lemm.ee
Customization:
DarkReader recommended by @noroute@lemmy.world
Midnight Lizard (like DarkReader with more customization)
nightTab (customizable startpage)
Sidebery (Tab list in sidebar) recommended by @SomeGuy69@lemmy.world
Misc
Bypass Paywalls Clean recommended by @lorkano@lemmy.world
Cookies (3rd and 1st party) can be disabled per site from your browser settings in any modern browser.
JS can be disabled per site using uBlock origin for sure, and I’m pretty sure you can disable iframes as well
I admit I’ve never used uMatrix, but from what I know ublock is the successor of the project (and is considered the state-of-the-art adblocking software), so I’d assume you can do everything uMatrix can and more.
I suggest looking up some tutorials for uBlock to get the grasp of the possibility of the software
