Ask HN: What are your favorite browser add-ons?
What are the YCers' favorite browser plugins for web development or just plain browsing?
Are there any features you use in Firefox/Safari/Opera or another browser that you just haven't seen elsewhere?
- dhotson 18y agoFirebug is a pretty obvious choice. Highly recommended! I also use Flashblock.. oh and Sage for RSS.
- LogicHoleFlaw 18y agoMy personal favorites in Firefox for personal browsing are: Adblock Plus, Colorful Tabs, NoScript, Nuke Anything, Popup ALT Attribute (for XKCD), and Tree Style Tab. For web development I find Web Developer and Firebug indispensable.
- zacharye 18y agoIn terms of browsing, these are the add-ons I don't know that I would fair well without: easyGestures, Adblock Plus, ChromEdit Plus / Smart Bookmarks Bar, Greasemonkey, Foxmarks Bookmarks Synchronizer Also a fan of some others such as Zotero, Delicious, Tab Catalog and a few others.

- AndyKelley 18y agoI can't wait till everyone starts using Adblock (Plus) and it completely throws off the Internet economy.
- unalone 18y agoInquisitor is the only add-on I use, for Safari. It's a beautiful add-on and it's the only thing that does something for my browser that makes me more productive.
