Issue #106, I am feeling too sleepy to continue this for some reason.

Raw Blame History

I often end-up installing addons without having syncing available, so this is a living list of the essential ones I will always miss and a few extras.

Oops, this has been living on the GitHub issue tracker since 2017-12-25 with the latest addition being 17 days ago…

I think I will just put extensions that I am not actively using with the rest of the extensions as long as I can recommend them to people or this would become even more confusing.

Firefox containers

I love them 💜, dont you? Multiple instances of web apps and with some helpful extensions Facebook and Google automatically separated to their own containers and hopefully leaking a bit less my browsing habits. I especially 💜 not using Facebook and having random links from IRC open in a dedicated container which hopefully looks more like a random user from the same IP (Carrier Grade NAT or different PC user or similar) than me.

Prevent Facebook from tracking you around the web. The Facebook Container extension for Firefox helps you take control and isolate your web activity from Facebook.

Oops, I explained why I love this above already.

THIS IS NOT AN OFFICIAL ADDON FROM MOZILLA! It is a fork of the Facebook Container addon.

Prevent Google from tracking you around the web. The Google Container extension helps you take control and isolate your web activity from Google.

Firefox Multi-Account Containers lets you keep parts of your online life separated into color-coded tabs that preserve your privacy. Cookies are separated by container, allowing you to use the web with multiple identities or accounts simultaneously.

I have understood that this is part of Firefox since I forgot and am too lazy to check, but this extension anyway allows naming/creating/renaming and otherwise managing containers and jumping to them easily.

Privacy

Control your cookies! This WebExtension is inspired by Self Destructing Cookies. When a tab closes, any cookies not being used are automatically deleted. Whitelist the ones you trust while deleting the rest. Support for Container Tabs.
