About Safari Extentions (lemmy.world)

What are some Safari extensions you yourself use and/or recommend?

I’ve been using Safari and it only ever since I switched back when the iPhone X came out and never looked back.

I got annoyed by advertisements pretty early and was looking for an adblocker that did not screw up the whole internet.

I’m using AdGuard ever since. It’s good, still blocks YouTube ads, but sadly does not let me read news since a lot of them want me to deactivate it, and news websites over here are quite annoyingly full of ads.

Second I use is Sink It. It makes the internet Reddit website behave a little bit okay-ish. Combined with ad-blocker it’s quite usable.

Third is Hush. A little open source app that kills cookies the way the internet keeps on working.

And the final one I use is honey. It hasn’t saved me a single penny yet, but maybe it might one day perhaps eventually.

I’m happy to read about what extensions you use!

Make sure to go through your AdGuard settings and turn everything on. You should be able to delete hush as one of the optional options in AdGuard does the same thing. Also for news sites that ask you to disable it, try reader mode, if that doesn’t work, tap the aA, tap AdGuard, and tap the element covering the webpage. AdGuard will refresh and hide the element :)
