What does Lemmy use?

Looking at the comments, interest in privacy and adblocking seem high. But the actual addons suggested here are often redundant or even worse, make you easier to track. Instead, take a look at the Arkenfox wiki, which is more or less the gold standard for browser privacy. Both LibreWolf and Mullvad Browser, practically the most privacy/anonymity oriented browsers out there, right behind Tor, either rely on it or stick very closely to it.
I highly recommend reading the entire wiki from the start. You dont have to do everything it says, obviously, but even if you dont do anything it will give you a better understanding of browser privacy. And lastly, do not use Chrome or any chromium based browser if you care about privacy and a free and open internet. Even if you only use a chromium based browser, you help increase googles monopoly.- crius ( @crius@beehaw.org ) 6•1 year ago
An extra thumbs up for mullvad vpn from me. It’s a bit more costly than the mainstream ones but you don’t have to subscribe to any plan. Just pay month by month, absolutely no personal data needed.

Thank you 00 and crius for introducing Mullvad. Been looking for a VPN that doesn’t lock you into any subscription plans.
- 00 ( @00@kbin.social ) 5•1 year ago
Mullvad VPN is great! Though I was talking about the Mullvad Browser (which is great as well and integrates well with their VPN service).

uBlock Origin
Decentraleyes
Consent-o-matic
These are essential to me. Consent o matic automatically fills out cookie pop-ups by opting out of everything for you. Some of these cookie things take a while to process which shows how devious they are set up

I love these types of posts. From the outset they seem mundane, but they are discussion provoking and I’m able to learn of new things at the same time.
My list (Firefox) 🙃
- Absolute Enable Right Click & Copy
- Bitwarden
- Don’t Fuck With Paste
- I still don’t care about cookies
- SponsorBlock
- uBlock Origin
Some of you have a LOT of addons, jeez.
Edit: Updated to use the /still/ don’t care about cookies addon. Thanks @stepan@lemmy.fmhy.ml
- Wizard ( @Wizard@lemmy.dustybeer.com ) English4•1 year ago
Don’t Fuck With Paste
You don’t need an addon for this one. Search about:config for dom.event.clipboardevents.enabled and double click on the key (set it to false). It should take care of that for you.
Edit: Typo
- stepan ( @stepan@lemmy.fmhy.ml ) English2•1 year ago
Wasn’t I don’t care about cookies acquired by Avast or something? I don’t exactly remember why, but in response to something like that, community edition I still don’t care about cookies was created and I’m using it since then.
- lazynooblet ( @lazynooblet@lazysoci.al ) English2•1 year ago

- livingcoder ( @livingcoder@lemmy.austinwadeheller.com ) English1•1 year ago
Why are so few people using Tampermonkey? It’s so useful. Is there an alternative that I don’t know about?
- TheFrenchGhosty ( @TheFrenchGhosty@lemmy.pussthecat.org ) English2•1 year ago
Because it’s proprietary and borderline spyware.
Use ViolentMonkey.

The Cookie addons work wonderfully together. IDCAC just accepts every cookie banner automatically, AutoDelete removes them after the tab was closed.
