arkenfox recommendations.

  • uBlock Origin: best adblocker
  • HTTPS Only: Firefox has a new setting where you can force HTTPS. And if it’s not available, you get a warning that you can bypass. I would recommend enabling it by default.
  • Consent-O-Matic: always say NO to cookie popup related to RGPD.
  • JSLibCache: store locally JS lib to prevent tracking later if those libs are reused.
  • PopUpOFF: remove annoying popups

Configure uBlock Origin settings

you may want to check the settings (block remote fonts) and see which lists are used to block ads. You can enable more of them. For example: All the AdGuard filters (especially Français), malware domains. Here are some additional filters that you can add manually.

additional filters

Block by default third-party scripts and frames, and allow manually. This may break some websites (CDN for scripts or frames for youtube) but you can control what will be loaded and run. Disable in the left column, and enable in the right column when needed.

Other useful extensions

  • Gesturefy: mouse gestures for Firefox. Draw with your mouse to refresh a page, go back, close a tab, etc…
  • Hover Zoom +: hover an image to show it.
  • BitWarden: password manager with online backup protected by 2FA. Also has mobile app. But Firefox supports now randomly generated password out of the box.
  • LessPass: another password generator based on the visited website, login and master password. This one is offline and there’s an app for smartphone.
  • Enhancer for Youtube: add more settings for youtube (fullscreen, loop)
  • SponsorBlock: Easily skip YouTube video sponsors.
  • Auto Tab Discard: free resources by discarding unused tabs
  • Firefox Multi-Account Containers: Cookies are separated by container, allowing you to use the web with multiple accounts and integrate Mozilla VPN for an extra layer of privacy. Useful for example to log in with 2 google accounts (personal and work) in different containers.

    L’interet de BitWarden est pas vraiment de générer des mots de passe aléatoire, mais de synchroniser les mots de passes sur plusieurs appareils. Sur Android, BitWarden peut remplir les mots de passes sur les applications directement.

      yes, c’était un vieux commentaire quand Firefox ne proposait pas encore la génération des mots de passe.
