PSA: You probably don't need that extension - Lemmy

I’m sure a lot of us are already using Firefox with uBlock Origin, and I’m also sure that most of us already know about Arkenfox [https://github.com/arkenfox]. Despite this, one thing that I’m still noticing on the internet are people recommending extensions that, as per the Arkenfox wiki [https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js/wiki/4.1-Extensions], are frankly just not needed anymore. So people, please stop using: * Cookie extensions like Cookie Auto Delete * URL cleaning extensions like ClearURLs * Anti-fingerprinting extensions * Redundant privacy extensions like Ghostery or Privacy Badger * NoScript And also please note that Firefox Multi-Account Containers is probably overkill for most threat models, and that Firefox’s builtin Total Cookie Protection is probably just fine.
