Firefox plugins

These are the Firefox plugins/extensions I use:

• uBlock Origin - Essential to block out all the junk. This was a game changer when I heard about it only 6 months ago. If you are seeing YouTube ads, visiting recipe websites, or just using the internet full stop, then this is a must.

• Google Sign-in Popup Blocker - I can't stand those popups. Only release June 2024, this is fairly new, and makes it really easy to disable those relentless popups.

• Bitwarden Password Manager - I use Bitwarden to manage my passwords, so this is a no-brainer. I make sure the "Display suggestions when icon is selected" option is ticked under the Autofill settings so I only see suggestions in forms when I click the icon (sometimes the suggestions get in the way otherwise).

• Dark Mode Website Switcher - I switch between dark and light mode a lot, and to do it via settings takes a while, so this is a nice little button that now sits next to my address bar that does it in one click.

That's it. There's a lot of hoohah about browsers at the moment, but Firefox with the above works just fine for me.
