thank you!!
>>52118688
This anon almost got it right…
NoScript is obsolete - just use uMatrix instead.
Privacy Badger is redundant - you only need uBlock Origin.
RequestPolicy is redundant - you only need uBlock Origin.
>>52118629
That's kinda hot!

Replace uBlock with Redmorph. It's the one that blocks the most requests these days.
tree style tabs. Changed my browsing experience.

Reported for advertising.

>tfw firefox is deprecating XUL and tree style tabs will stop working within the next year
life is suffering
>>52118749
fuck off already, stop shilling that closed source piece of nigger shit.
>>52118749
Fucking shill

NoScript is enough, I put uMatrix and RP in "other addons" because those two are a bit much of a hassle to use. Privacy Badger is unnecesary if you use uBlock Origin, but if not, its useful
>>52118873
>NoScript is enough
No, uBlock Origin with Dynamic Filtering is "enough"
If you want to go beyond what that offers, the only logical option is uMatrix.
NoScript has no place in 2015.
>>52118629
Also, get self-destructing cookies, that addon is godtier.

µMatrix has the worst fucking UI

I just switched to uMatrix. It's pretty fucking tedious but it's not very complicated and it allows for stricter control. The biggest problem so far has been some of the guess work.
googleapis needed to be whitelisted with 4chan X and Noscript, but for some reason, it's not needed with uMatrix. Now I'm not sure if something under the surface is broken or not.
Going to toss a related question in this thread. What's the best downloader extension for drabbing shit off of Youtube? Been using Youtube Audio And Video Downloader simply because I'm familiar with it and it offers a good slew of basic options, but I'm curious if there's anything better.

Firefox is the cutest browser.

Allow me to interject
Ublock
Treestyle tabs
Https everywhere
>>52120447
fucking disgusting

Those are crazy, "I burned all the pictures of other people so you'll have more time for me" eyes.

youtube-dl. It's a program, not an extension, but it is without doubt the best. Does everything you could ever want.
It's command line but it's worth learning a few commands even if you don't normally into that.
Should be in your package manager if GNU+Linux.
Annoying to set up if on windows (you have to modify your PATH extensions, and get ffmpeg, I think) but it's worth it.
>>52118629
Get greasemonkey too for 4chanx. you'll thank me later.

I don't understand the point of treestyle tabs. You still have a top window border, but now that space is wasted when it could be filled with tabs instead. People say that treestyle tabs is supposed to save you space on widescreen monitors, but instead you just end up with a giant dead zone at the bottom left of your screen and an unused window title bar where the tabs would normally be.

If you have 10+ tabs regularly open then it's a godsend
>>52124107
Pretty much. Also I can do things like open all of today's news then read it through the day and collapse the group into one slot when I'm not reading.
>>52124069
You can have 30+ tabs open, easy. And organize your tabs by nesting them.
