Pretty standard stuff here:
In terms of actually recommending extensions to others. I'd recommend most of the above, excepting NoScript. If you are using UBO, then the use case for NoScript is a very narrow one where you want selective whitelisting of javascript while visiting a site. UBO's blacklisting approach works for most cases and UBO's whitelisting feature is lacking the granularity of NoScript.
If you use any kind of ad blocker, switch to FireFox
Chrome is deliberately crippling ad block extensions via manifest v3
Multi-account containers is one of my favorite things about Firefox. I use Temporary Containertabs too, so anything not in an explicit container is in a brand new one of its own.
God, I love Dark Reader. I don't know why anyone makes bright white websites.
I use Dark Reader on my work laptop was well. We had a conference call with a vendor and I was sharing my screen while talking with their team about our usage of their product and one of them stopped me and asked about the UI looking strange. I said, "oh ya, I use Dark Reader because you don't have a native dark mode. You do lose points for that." They had a native dark mode a couple months later.
I've come to the conclusion that UI designers hate their customers' retinas.
