Whats one browser extension you cant live without? - Artemisss - Nov 12, 2025

For me, uBlock Origin is non-negotiable. Once you use it, the internet without it feels broken.

What’s your must-have extension or add-on?

Don’t make me say it lol.

DarkReader is up there for me.

I enjoy ad and tracker blocking Ublock Origin.

I agree for uBlock origin, it would stress me out to browse without this extension

Password manager for sure

Really? Why use a password manager as an extension in your browser? Why not use KeePassXC instead?

Not an extension... but brave for watching YouTube without ads and a VPN that also blocks ads

I prefer having my passwords sync automatically across devices.

Totally respect your choice! Automatic sync is convenient. I personally stick with KeePassXC because it has built-in 2FA (TOTP) support for every account, so I can store my authentication codes right alongside my passwords. It also automatically clears copied passwords from the clipboard after 10 seconds.
Different workflows for different needs, both approaches are perfectly valid.

My choice is Bitwarden also because of its builtin TOTP support and password generator is super convenient.

The encryption is also strong and the code gets audited annually.

Bitwarden is honestly excellent for everyday personal use. The only little “catch” I personally keep in mind is that once you go Premium (to unlock TOTP), you’re paying with a credit card or PayPal, so the account is inevitably linked to your real name/email.

(Nice R6 Randomizer btw)

Good point! And thank you, I spent a lot of time on it. Would you mind giving it a star?
