What browser extensions do you use?
Top comments (36)
Listing from my browser:
And obviously last but not least the daily.dev extension.
Cors everywhere? Way to get XSS hacked
I don't think the extension does what you think it does
It enables CORS requests from any website to any domain making you vulnerable to CSRF and session hijacking. CORS is enabled on browsers because its a security standard.
Hahahaha @rsa is right. That extension is meant for developing purposes, meaning I'm not going to have it turned on everytime for the reasons you mentioned.
Just the ones I didnt see here:
external-application-button free buttons that have access to the dom, can invoke local scripts and even pass contextual data. currently just fuses my youtube-dl, but some day, it will probably replace my job
SingleFile A "save current page to file" that actually works. Generates a single .html with base64 images. Recreates a correct layout and even most simple actions.
Capital! No more fiddling with .mht files, I take it!
daily.dev - helps me stay updated with the latest tech news for developers.
Grammarly - helps me in writing properly in English.
1Password - help me manage my private passwords and my team's passwords.
I'm using Glasp. It allows me to highlight and extract web articles and import & export Kindle highlights.
Thanks for sharing 👍💯💖
It's my pleasure :)
Dark Reader because i hate white screens
Diigo because I miss delicious
Latest versions of Dark Reader are great! Previously, it was very slow, but now it is so quick, especially in static mode.
I'm using Firefox Dev Edition and I'm using these plugins:
Cookie Auto Delete
great for clearing all the cookies that website makes once you close the tab.
CSS Reload
for fast way to reload CSS when you don't want to lose all your JS changes and want to see the CSS changes you've made.
Facebook Container
Facebook Container isolates your Facebook activity from the rest of your web activity in order to prevent Facebook from tracking you outside of the Facebook website via third party cookies.
Fake Filler
for fast filling up forms when you are testing them.
Gitako - GitHub file tree
for browsing the github filetree
Google search link fix
prevents Google and Yandex search pages from modifying search result links when you click them. This is useful when copying links but it also helps privacy by preventing the search engines from recording your clicks.
JSON Lite
Fast JSON viewer - highlights, shows items count/size, handles large files
Open Graph Preview
Shows approximately what users will see if this webpage is shared on websites that uses OG tags to display a preview like Facebook, Twitter ...
Panorama Tab Groups
THE BEST tab organization addon. You can scope tabs in multiple groups and have them when needed.
SearchPreview
SearchPreview enhances your search results pages by inserting site preview images (thumbnails) and popularity ranks into Google™, DuckDuckGo™, Yahoo™ and Bing™ search results.
Temporary Containers
This one is great for those websites that limit you the number of daily/monthly reads like medium.
Twitter Container
unofficial fork of Mozilla's Facebook Container designed for Twitter. Twitter Container isolates your Twitter activity from the rest of your web activity in order to prevent Twitter from tracking you outside of the Twitter website via third party cookies. This is not an official Mozilla Product & is in no way related to them.
uBlock Origin
hands down the best adblocking addon. It's not slowing down page loads and gives you the ability to pick elements manually that are going to be blocked.
Vue.js devtools
Debugging the VueJS apps
Wappalyzer
Inspecting the technology used on particular website
Wayback Machine
Great for links that have expired if you still want to see that information. It automatically detects 404 links and gives you the last version that was online.
YouTube Container
Same as Twitter and Facebook containers. Stops the YT from profiling you and having all those cookie tracking on other websites.
Nope - An extension I made for blocking website domains when I don't want to get distracted with social media and those stuff.
Tree Style Tab- I usually open a looot of tabs, which makes it hard to navigate between them. This extension helps you with tab organization and makes navigating way easier.
Adblock Plus - I hate websites with too many adds.
Lighthouse - Firefox doesn't have it for default and I don't like switching between browsers all the time.
React Developer Tools - I always like to see what technologies were used in an website and since I like React a lot, this extension helps me a lot as well.
I see most of the extensions I use are already mentioned in the comments. I shall add those not mentioned yet.
I use many extensions 😬
