Since currently Lemmy is mostly made up of nerds, I'd like to know what browsers you use and why? You could just upvote the comment with your browser of choice if you don't want to explain.

Firefox on Mac and PC syncronized.

Clear Cache
ClearURLs
DownThemAll
DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials
Enhancer for YouTube
FrankerFaceZ (for twitch)
Print Friendly & PDF
Proton Pass
Tampermonkey
uBlock Origin
iCloud Bookmarks
Facebook Container
Firefox Multi-Account Containers (for work)

Safari on my iPhone / iPad.

Noir (dark mode websites)
1Blocker (as an alternative to uBlock - it’s pretty good)
Achoo (for debugging websites)
Amplosion (for redirecting AMP sites (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerated_Mobile_Pages)

The moment Firefox on iOS/iPadOS gets to use it’s own engine and run it’s own extensions I’m swapping to that, though.

Take a look at vinegar / baking soda as an extension for safari. It replaces the non-standard video players on websites like YouTube with a plain HTML5 player. Much smoother and you get all the iOS / macOS features like scrubbing and PiP. Plus it blocks ads as well!

I shall have a look at that! Peculiar names, though. :D
