Judging by a default browser is also really misleading. Firefox is by far the most private with extensions, no competition.

This is just my personal list

  • Ublock origin in advanced mode to block js like matrix did (or in basic mode on mobile/if you don't want to waste time fixing broke websites)
  • Decentraleyes to avoid loading libraries
  • Cookies autodelete to you guess it
  • Consent O Matic to auto consent gdpr banners
  • Link cleaner to clean copied urls from tracking queries
  • Redirector to redirect famous websites to their alternative front-ends (YouTube to piped etc)
