Top Ten Mozilla Firefox Extensions
Ten extensions that make the best browser on the planet even better.
-
Adblock Plus
AdBlock was the reason I got Firefox, but I stayed for everything else! Makes me feel a whole lot safer and makes the internet a lot more fun to be on. AdBlock FOR THE WIN!
UBlock Origin is way better. Less memory usage, more customizable, doesn't sell out by allowing ads of those who paid the extension creators, is available on Firefox Android too.
Should come as standard with firefox. (Apart from then my own site wouldn't make money from google ads but oh well)
