Very useful, especially if you tired of your adblocker (like uBlock Origin) making weird spaces after videos, the spaces that are actually hidden ads.*

Well, these aren't all extensions that I have installed, but most of them.
Rest of them are either for Mastodon, either for Bluesky, or just homepage extensions. For example, I personally use Bonjourr.
I didn't gave you all extensions names, but I did shared all privacy-focused extensions and all YouTube-related extensions.
Some of these extensions are made for increasing the volume on else websites then YouTube, and some are just vertical tabs extensions, but I don't use them because I don't need them. Why?
Well, it's because it's time to share my setup, I think :-)
I use @zenbrowser as my main and @brave as secondary. I as well have @safing 's Portmaster app installed since it is privacy-focused.
So, I use personally Linux Mint, 20.3, Cinnamon as my OS.
My default search engine is Brave.
So, this is basically all it :-)
10K characters weren't enough for me, huh :-)
