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

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

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?

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.
