Ublock Origin is an obvious one, but I also can't stand not having Foxy Gestures anymore. It adds customizable mouse gestures, so you can set it up to have easy swipes to go back a page, reload a page, close a tab, etc, and it feels wonderful and smooth to use compared to just using the traditional buttons to do everything. Honestly it's kinda wild to me that this isn't more popular now that people are so used to phone gestures. It's good for the same reasons!

Other than Ublock Origin and Bitwarden, these are some of my favourites :

Temporary Containers is a new favourite of mine. It works just like container tabs, but the difference is that it deletes the history of that tab once it's closed, similar to Incognito/Private instance.

Reddit Comments for Youtube - If a youtube video has been linked to reddit, then it basically gives a small box which lists all the subs the video has been linked to and shows you the comments. If you're logged into reddit, then it will allow you to comment as well.

Keepa for Amazon. Let's you track price history for any product, so you can see if a sale is actually a real sale or not.

Tab Session Manager - Basically lets you save tab sessions.

Enhancer for Youtube and Pockettube Subscription Manager - Gives various youtube enhancements.

Stylus - To style websites. I mainly use it to fix the youtube thumbnail and font size.

I use CamelCamelCamel for Amazon. Besides price history it allows notifications on sales or price drops.

Lmao that's my only use for stylus too. And like 5 years ago I changed the roblox logo to a cheez-it with stylus. I need to find more websites to use with it but last I checked the website to get themes was terribly slow. It's been a fat minute though.
