Dark Reader, LocalCDN, Firefox Relay, Firefox Translations, LanguageTool among others I have installed on Iceraven, a Firefox for Android fork.
- maccard 3y agoDark Reader and Relay are both on Android. I'm not sold on LocalCDN being necessary or even helpful these days (but there was a time when it was. A bit like antiviruses other than Windows defender these days, or those registry cleaner tools). The others are missing for sure, though.
- ReadCarlBarks 3y agoLocalCDN is helpful because it makes Firefox use local copies of popular JS libraries instead of downloading them over and over again. This makes browsing faster.

- Cyuonut 3y agoTampermonkey is installable in (my, at least) Forefox Android.
- ReadCarlBarks 3y ago> consent-o-matic You don't need this. Just go to your uBlock Origin filter lists settings and enable these: * AdGuard - Annoyances * uBlock filters – Annoyances
- Macha 3y agoNot the same - sites will then take your not opting out of "legitimate interest" as consent. Not valid under GDPR really, but I'm not interested in giving them any argument to stand on.
- ReadCarlBarks 3y ago* The laws specify that it must be opt-in. If a site doesn't respect this, you can't expect it to respect any of your choices anyway. * You can now also use uBlock Origin to set cookies and LocalStorage entries automatically. The annoyance lists already set opt-out cookies for sites like Google and Youtube * Firefox has actually been isolating third-party cookies and other site data (e.g. LocalStorage) for over a year. It's pointless for you to ever be concerned about them.
- Macha 3y agoClient side data is only part of the problem, and it's a common myopic argument to GDPR for opponents of GDPR to say people should just use their browser's cookie controls. Server side fingerprinting is as much as a problem, something the ad industry has adopted since Safari added ITP and are accelerating since Chrome has been making noises about following Safari and Firefox for a few years now. I suspect as soon as Google figures out how to do it without disrupting their own ad business it'll come into effect.
- ReadCarlBarks 3y agouBlock Origin blocks connections to trackers/marketing companies by default. If you don't even connect to them, they can't fingerprint or track you.
- dahateb 3y agoThanks, I didn't know about consent-o-matic, will try it out. If it works that will be the best extension in a long time.
