Because you can already do that by pressing down on the middle mouse button and moving up or down?

The 4 extensions I couldn't live without are

Tab Mix Plus

NoScript

FxIF

POTO Sidebar Extension

POTO should be the default way of using Firefox bookmarks IMHO, but it's only practical with a full screen Firefox. Basically, move mouse hard left and click to get the sidebar, same to get rid of it.

-Scrollbar Anywhere:

I dont understand why this isnt more popular... you can scroll up and down a page by simply holding down the right mouse button and moving up or

Is it really? How do you open a new tab? Or a new window? These tasks are accomplished by the gestures Up and Down, respectively. Wouldn't it conflict? And I love the Up gesture, for opening links in a new, focused tab, so I wouldn't change it to something else.

I guess the middle mouse button is enough for me.

Adblock Plus (using Easylist)

Fasterfox (on Optimized, not Turbo Charged)

Noscript

Newest versions of each of these from mozilla addons site.

BTW to everyone using Adblock Plus Filterset.G, the creator of Adblock plus dosnt recommened you using it because it dosnt exactly take advantage of the Adblock addon like the rest of the subrictions, you could switch to easylist and have the same or beter results, but its up to you.

Do you find that all those plugins slow FF startup?

  • 3 weeks later...
is there a plugin that allows you easier access tabs? Like instead of having a hassle to click on each and every one. (Scroll?, Keyboard Shortcut?)

you can already scroll tabs using the keyboard. Off my head the combination is "ctrl" + "page up"/"page down"

    • OpenAI is making Codex more useful in Chrome and the cloud by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI's Codex now has more than 5 million users, up nearly 4x from earlier this year. To further accelerate Codex's growth among developers, OpenAI today announced that it has agreed to acquire Ona, a company that builds secure cloud execution and orchestration technology for developers. Ona will enable developers to run Codex with persistent and controlled cloud infrastructure for long-running agentic workflows. Right now, most Codex execution happens locally on developers' laptops and PCs, and the agents work continuously for hours. Through Ona, OpenAI aims to make Codex agents keep working for days without being tied to a user’s local machine or an active session. This will be an important capability for enterprises that want to deploy AI agents in production while maintaining control over infrastructure, data, security boundaries, credential scope, logging, and review workflows. Like any acquisition, the deal is still subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals. Until the deal closes, OpenAI and Ona will continue to operate as separate companies. After closing, Ona’s team will join the Codex team to improve developer workflows. Alongside the Ona acquisition announcement, OpenAI today introduced a few Codex updates. Developers can now save Codex rate limit resets and use them later instead of losing them when they are not needed immediately. OpenAI is also adding a referral option where users can invite a friend to Codex and get a saved rate limit reset. OpenAI today also announced a developer mode for browser use in Chrome and the Codex in-app browser. With this mode, Codex can use the Chrome DevTools Protocol to debug web apps, inspect pages, and work more directly with browser-based development workflows. Developers can use this when they want Codex to profile JavaScript, inspect console output and network traffic, examine web page states including the DOM and applied styles, and more.
