Advice Request Most necessary extensions?

[JM Safe]

Hello guys, personally I have HTTPS Everywhere and uBlock Origin. What are the most necessary extensions for you?

 

[erreale]

Regardless of the name of the App ...

1) password manager
2) ad blocker
3) https force

I do not see the utility of using anything else.

There are too many choices, so I'll split it down to 3 main categories that I think are necessary.
Extensions:
+ Block adverts, trackers and other dangerous web content
+ Password manager for log-in credentials and secure notes
+ VPN for secure connections and privacy

I use it when posting.

@show-Zi I think your english is well written and understandable, I think you would be able also without translator

- adblocker
- password manager
- anti-xss

The rest is not mandatory and depend of the user's needs.

Bitwarden, free cloud-based multi-plarforms.
Tried many, can't find better yet.

If you already have uBlock Origin, why also uMatrix?

uBlock Origin (ad blocker) and LastPass (password manager) for me, like @Gandalf_The_Grey and @Umbra said, this is the essential.

For dynamic filtering

My own English ability is inferior to YouTube's automatic translation subtitles.
I have multiple browsers, but in the case of transcribing and browsing overseas sites, I feel that Firefox is much lagging compared to chrome browsers. Firefox used add-on of translation called s3Translator, but it seems that it has been deleted from the official add-on now.

The less extensions you have the better, I only use Adguard (and I don't expect it to protect me from Malware, but I'm not worried about malware).

Even Google Safe Browsing gives you basic protection against malicious URLs, at the cost of privacy though.

On my main machine:

Most necessary add-ons for Firefox: uBlock Origin and NoScript
Most necessary add-on for Microsoft Edge: Nano Adblocker

It's an ongoing effort to find the fewest, most effective and resource-light extensions. Getting there. :emoji_ok_hand:

Edit: temporarily allowing JavaScript on here as a trusted site allows me to "like" a post without that "are you sure" dialog. Anyone else notice this?

 

[DeepWeb]

For anyone here using Privacy Badger, may I recommend Privacy Possum instead? It's a more aggressive version and blocks canvas fingerprinting.

That's a nice collection of password managers.
Anyone your favorite?

Lastpass and Bitwarden. I have used several others, including 1Password, Dashlane, Keeper, Roboform, Password Boss, Enpass etc but BW and LP are the winners. I obviously cannot rely completely on SaaS providers with what I consider critical information for fear they may go out of business someday and leave my info inaccessible. Therefore I have backed up my logins and safe notes in Keepass & Sticky Password configured for local WiFi sync. I won't trust Enpass until they have their code audited.
