Disconnect is a good one as well as ublock origin 

 

This i recommend to everyone, the rest are extensions that are more specific to your use.

 

I have a bunch but I only use them when needed - so they are hard to generally recommend.

Nobody here uses NoScript?

breaks things more than it helps on most websites IMO

 

I use the following on my browser

  • uBlock Origin (Neowin whitelisted of course)
  • HTTPS Everywhere (when not using Brave as it's built in on Brave)
  • FireShot
  • Session Buddy
  • Improve YouTube - used to stop auto play and a few other useful tweaks - https://github.com/code4charity/YouTube-Extension
  • FrankerFaceZ - in which I also have the 7TV and BTTV emote plugins

Do people use uBlock Origin instead of AdGuard?

I thought the latter was supposed to be pretty good.

I've used both and currently use AdGuard.  Not sure if one is better than the other, but for some reason settled on AdGuard recently.

 

I also use a "Remove Cookie Banners" extension so that I don't need to press "accept" on every webpage.

Yes. Absolutely. I only use Ublock Origin for years and I see no reason to switch.

 

Try it. It is likely the best extension you ever used.

I did.
But then switched to AdGuard 😛 
Maybe time for a switch back and see.
I'll highly likely not notice the difference.

    • Bose QuietComfort Ultra Gen 2 headphones are down to lowest price in over a month by Taras Buria Bose's second-gen QuietComfort Ultra headphones are premium over-ear headphones with noise cancellation, but right now, you can save 16%, thanks to a discount that brought the headphones to a new lowest price in over a month. While the general look and aesthetics remain unchanged compared to the previous gen, the Gen 2 features redesigned wear-detection sensors, which accurately pause your music the moment you take them off. Additionally, the headphones now support lossless audio via a direct USB-C wired connection, letting you enjoy uncompressed sound when plugged into your laptop or phone. There is also spatial audio support (works wirelessly) for a more immersive audio experience and improved noise cancellation, which makes the QuietComfort Ultra go-to headphones for many users on long flights or other scenarios when they need to isolate themselves from the surrounding noise. The QuietComfort Ultra (Gen 2) also features Bluetooth Multipoint for seamless switching between two devices at once. As for battery life, you get up to 30 hours on a single charge (up to 23 hours when using spatial audio). Besides good audio quality and noise cancellation, the headphones should be comfortable to wear, thanks to the lightweight 250-gram design and soft protein-leather ear pads. The QuietComfort Ultra Gen 2 are available in four colors, and all five are now available at the lowest price: Bose QuietComfort Ultra Bluetooth Headphones (2nd Gen) - $379 | 16% off on Amazon This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Started implementing weapons! Here's a little sneak peek! 👀 Animation was done inside of Unreal Engine using Control Rig! Really useful tool, I don't have to go back and forth between Blender and UE, you can basically make tweaks while the game is running.
    • Keep in mind Intuit has lobbied like crazy to keep taxes complicated so they can continue to sell tax software. They also got caught hiding their legally mandated free version so they could release a second one that pushed countless people into charges they didn't need to pay to file. Intuit leads the charge on inventing problems so they can sell you the solution and disrespecting you in the process.
