Firefox Extensions

[Skhilled]

I started to post this in the "What Browser" topic but thought it should have its own topic. What extensions do you like to use in FF? Here's some of mine:

1.  Disable AutoPlay - Click to play by Ed Gar - Click to play by Ed Gar. It will disable most auto playing videos, etc. I found it after getting tired of all of the videos and popups on my local news site and it worked like a charm! Just click on the red square if you want to play the video:

Edit: YES! It works on YouTube for auto playing videos, etc.

2.  Decentraleyes by Thomas Rientjes -  Protects you against tracking through "free", centralized, content delivery. It prevents a lot of requests from reaching networks like Google Hosted Libraries, and serves local files to keep sites from breaking. Complements regular content blockers:

3.  Privacy Badger -  Automatically learns to block hidden trackers. Made by the leading digital rights nonprofit EFF to stop companies from spying on you:

4.  DuckDuckGo Search & Tracker Protection by DuckDuckGo - I love this one! It will show you a list of all trackers blocked and what app or website it blocked them from:

5.  ClearURLs by Kevin - Removes tracking elements from URLs. Great for copying and pasting without the extra stuff.

6.  uBlock Origin by Raymond Hill - Finally, an efficient wide-spectrum content blocker. Easy on CPU and memory:

The best thing is that all of the blockers play nice with each other.

I forgot to mention these two...

7.  WCAG Contrast checker -  Checks for compliance with the contrast levels of foreground and background colors combination based on the requirements of WCAG 2.. It's great for working on themes and colors.

8.  Lightshot (screenshot tool) by Serg at SkillBrains, Andrej at SkillBrains - I JUST found this one and it works great! However, you may one one that isn't just Firefox-based.

Hmmm, a Privacy board, maybe in the lounge or somewhere private and only for users, would be welcomed. 

I have a lot of info and videos on it.

You're meant to be working on Crips theme upgrades

Ad Blocker ultimate and Ghostery are the two I use for FF. I thought I had more but musta not installed all of them back when I built this rig.
