What browser extensions do you use that you'd recommend to others?

Do you contribute to any FOSS browser extension projects?

Are there any non-FOSS extensions that you wish had a sufficient FOSS alternative?

uBlock Origin, Bypass Paywalls Clean, Bitwarden, and SponsorBlock for YouTube are my favorite ones.

I cannot stand SponsorBlock anymore. It's been abused so much, that any time any video even slightly mentions a brand, sponsor or not, it skips it.

I find that it breaks context in a lot of videos, and you end up missing important stuff. I especially find it to be true in LTT videos.

For me, SponsorBlock is disabled until they fix the abuse. There's a very clear difference between a SPONSOR and just mentioning an entity that exists on this planet.

@JshKlsn @admin I agree with ya. Sometimes I actually wanna hear what product they are talking about but it's incredibly hard.

Channels like rctestflight frequently mention multiple products they use in their builds but people block that for some reason.. like what's the point of it?
