What would you consider to be the 7 browser extension Wonders of the World/Internet?
I'll make a list of them and periodically update it, depending on their overall ranking in the comment section here.
As with everyone else, I agree that Ublock origin is the first wonder of the world.
Also up there however is just password managers in general, be that bitwarden, lastpass, protonpass, etc...
I have never had more and safer passwords without any hassle, than since using Vaultwarden as a passwordsafe (there are many instances offerd without cost) in combination with Bitwarden extension in my browsers and the app on my phone.
It's so incredibly easy to use.
-Ublock origin (first place, nonnegotiable)
-Dark reader
Dark reader for the win.
Don't forget DeArrow!
You don't need HTTPS Everywhere anymore by the way, it has native support in Firefox now.
Yes.
Tree Style Tab does not get enough mention here. It's a much better way to display a tablist.
XClear and TabMixPlus are up there too.
I'll add ViolentMonkey (run arbitrary custom script on a site), and Stylus (add custom CSS to a site). These are great for adding extra features/utilities to a site you use a lot, adding dark mode to a website that doesn't support it, etc.
Is this similar to TamperMonkey? (i.e. userscripts)
I don't know what I'd do without it!
Never needed any other, although i have a few anyways
Add bitwarden and that's what I have on all my browsers. Skip ads, skip passwords, skip paywalls — it's like the internet of old!
Love how you gave uBlock Origin as a starter already, so we don't need to repeat that obvious champion over and over again, yet almost nobody can take a hint.
uBlock Origin
Dark Reader
FastForward
Search by Image
Yomitan
I'm not sure what the other two would be.
Bypass paywall clean d
uBlock Origin, duh.
Privacy Badger.
Mouse Gestures (any of them, there's multiple).
Reader view, because sometimes all you need is the text, in a pleasantly readable format.
I think a chrome update nixed it, but I used the heck out of Imagus. All it does is expand to a full size image when you hover over an image on a website.
I really need to get that working again. I'm constantly hovering over images for no reason still.
Can't live without it! Works on Firefox if that's an option for you.
Pocket used to be on my list, but it was unfortunately shut down. Now Joplin web clipper took its place. I still miss Pocket.
I only have two; uBlock Origin and Firefox Multi-Account Containers.
Those are the only two I use all the time (I like to keep things clean and simple and avoid fingerprinting, there are others that I might enable for a specific task), and I consider them essential enough that they ought to be built into the browser.
I also use Temporary containers for all the sites I don't explicitly assign to a persistent container. How do you handle this? Is there a way to delete cookies just for the default (non) containers? Is there a way to fully isolate the sites in the default one?
Since you already have the 3 most important ones listed, I'll throw a vote for Enhancer for Youtube. Makes Youtube less annoying.
I don't even have 7 extensions enabled in my main browser. I have:
Other than uBlock Origin, I don't think they are worthy of "Wonder of the world" status.
Why Return YouTube Dislike? Isn't lowest/no engagement more effective these days.
I wouldn't need the extension for pressing the button. I have it to see the number.
no script, authenticator, bitwarden, power tabs, tab session manager, print friendly, terms of service didn't read.
UBlock Origin

I want to add multi account containers to the list
I prefer Adnauseam over uBlock Origin.
It uses uBlock Origin as a base, but extends it to click on ads in addition to blocking them.
RemovePaywall deserves at least 3rd place
I couldn’t live without FoxyGestures (formerly FireGeatures) anymore. I’ve been using it for over 15 years.
Everyone who says Dark Reader needs to let some light into their rooms.
I use it for accessibility reasons, I struggle to follow black text on a white background but the opposite is much better.
uBlock Origin
NoScript
...and then uBlock Origin 5 more times.
If this wasn’t the top comment, it would have ruined my day
