Tree Style Tabs has been updated to a WebExtension.[1]
Getting a menu bar no longer needs an extension, you can just right-click in the blank areas near the address bar and select "menu bar".
uMatrix can control and spoof Referer sending (I'm unfamiliar with RefControl, so this may not be exactly the same.)
Self Destroying Cookies[2] is a good way to keep cookies under control, though again I'm not familiar with the addon you mentioned.

- Merad 9y agoSo, dumb question (maybe), but how do you get tree style tabs to install? I'm running FF 57 but that page says it's incompatible because I'm running FF 51. I checked and the user agent string being sent is: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:51.0) Gecko/20170125 Firefox/51.0;
- SAI_Peregrinus 9y agoStop spoofing your user agent string, install it, then resume spoofing. It should be Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:57.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/57.0 by default for Firefox 57 on Windows 7 64-bit
- milofeynman 9y agoI believe privacy.resistFingerprinting = true spoofs user agent. Does anyone know if there is an addon or to whitelist which pages you don't want it spoofed on?
- Merad 9y agoI have never (to my knowledge) done anything to change the user agent. I dug around in about:config and discovered that general.useragent.override somehow got set. Edit: Something is resetting that override every time the browser starts. Dunno what, the only addons I run are uBlock and RES (and now TST). Edit 2: It was being set in user.js. No idea how it got there...
- milofeynman 9y agoDo you have privacy.resistFingerprinting = true set?
- Merad 9y agoNope, I discovered that it was being done in user.js. No clue how that happened...
- StillBored 9y agoClick "See all versions" and scroll down until you find one that is compatible.
- JetSpiegel 9y agoSelf-Destructing Cookies is not a WebExtension, you want Cookie AutoDelete. https://github.com/Cookie-AutoDelete/Cookie-AutoDelete/ https://github.com/Cookie-AutoDelete/Cookie-AutoDelete/
- SAI_Peregrinus 9y agoSelf Destroying Cookies is a WebExtension. There are now a couple of forks.
- StillBored 9y agoHopefully one of them can deal with localstorage? Because my 30 mins of using cookie autodelete, leads me to think it isn't as good as self destructing... It doesn't seem to reliably delete cookies unless I click the "clean" button.
