I really enjoy Firefox on Android as I can install a bunch of extensions and I find those extensions game changer, especially on the mobile.

One of my favorites are

  • Libredirect - literally one of my favorite ones. Redirects popular sites to privacy focused frontends, like YouTube to Invidious, etc.
  • uBlock Origin - I guess everyone knows this one
  • Privacy Badger - blocks trackers
  • Ghostery - blocks trackers, ads, scripts, etc.

What extensions do you guys use?

Dark Reader is sort of annoying to set up, but I like it. It would be better if you could choose to share your location with it rather than inputting your lat/long manually. (It's possible that's a limitation of extensions though.)

I use the DDG extension too but it's caused problems by blocking a webpage on localhost for some reason. Not sure what it does that uBO and Privacy Badger cannot.

I haven't used https://adnauseam.io/ but I like the idea of it. I stick with uBO and use AdGuard's public DNS in my router (too lazy to set up pihole).
