AdNauseam. An AdBlocker that also creates a trail of Garbage Data to make users less valuable for Advertisers and Data Collection

Is there anything that disables / stops sticky videos when scrolling on mobile?

I get pissed off when I'm reading a news article, scroll down, and their headline video (often just an ad) clips itself to the top 1/3 of the screen.

Aside from the popular ublock origin I'd get Sponsor Block. Too bad my mobile version doesn't support it.

uBlock Origin and Mouse Gestures.

Literally all I have ever used. I love mouse gestures so much because of Opera. I was using that for a bit before I discovered Firefox back in the day.

You should go through the suggestions made on this post. They are great. Maybe, sometime later I'll create a list and add it to this post's description later.

Lots of great extensions have been listed already, but here's one that I haven't seen mentioned yet and I really like: https://unhook.app/

[–] Justly0250@lemdro.id 3 points 2 years ago

Nice! UnHook removes YouTube recommended videos, related videos, comments, video suggestions wall, homepage recommendations, trending tab & comments

Tab Stash.

[–] Strayce@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Others have already mentioned some excellent vertical tab add-ons, so I'll post Tabs Aside, which is a super convenient way to save and load a window full of tabs. Saves having like 20 windows open with different stuff you don't want to lose.

[–] Justly0250@lemdro.id 2 points 2 years ago

Neat, I'll try this. I don't think the others save entire browser windows. So, maybe this has a different use.

In general:

Bypass Paywalls
Dark Reader
HTTPS Everywhere
I don't care about Cookies
Karrinator
KeePassXC Browser
NoScript
Simple Tab Groups
Tampermonkey
UBlock
UnloadTabs (Vor allem für Müll wie MS Teams)
User Agent Switcher and Manager
Vencord
Video Download Helper

For YouTube:

AutoReplay for YouTube
Disable YouTube Seek by Number
Return YouTube Dislike
SponsorBlock

Most of those Addons are for me to not go insane or blind.

Some of these are specialized tools, but to start, I make big, big use of dedicated containers, Google, Amazon, Reddit, Pixiv, Tumblr, and Discord. Sidebar note, uBlock Origin, NoScript, Bypass Paywalls Clean, Container Sidebar, Downloads Sidebar, Get RSS Feed URL, Pixiv Toolkit, FediShare, Tumblr - Post to Tumblr, Twitter Gif & Video Downloader, and Video Downloadhelper

Ever since Twitch Now stopped working, I found Gumbo which is working really well.
