Consent-o-matic instead of cookies and adnausem instead of ublock origin.
Consent-o-matic will actively opt out of popups.
Adnausem is built on top of ublock origin and will silently “click” on the ads behind the scenes to mess up your advertising profile and cost the advertisers money.

Tried it a couple of months ago. Didn’t nearly work as well as uBlock Origin, seemed buggy as hell.
uBlock Origin can just hide cookie pop ups if you enable said filter, and AdNauseam still loads the ad so you still have slower page loading speed and increased network traffic.
What’s wrong with privacy badger?
Not OP, but what puts me off is that it calls itself badger, but really it’s just a software that has nothing in common with those glorious animals. Did you know that badgers’ keen sense of smell is about 800 times sharper than our own?

Well, it can be replaced with uBlock Origin and some people dont recomend it anymore

You could add that extension that replaces clickbait titles by community-made descriptive ones. (lemmy do your thing and find the name please)
It’s DeArrow
Thanks! I don’t use it but I want it so much on freetube and newpipe 🥲
DeArrow is on freetube though?
It is ??!
There’s a switch in settings to enable sponsorblock, and if I remember correctly that includes DeArrow. Was really happy to discover that back when I did, both of these turn YouTube into such a different, better place.
No love for Ghostery?
Pretty soon, Firefox will need to be replaced with Waterfox and LibreWolf, unfortunately.
What do you need dislikes on YT for? You can’t tell a shitty video by it’s shitty title and shitty thumbnail?
Why is Badger bad?
It’s not bad, just mostly redundant these days, as the heuristic features are no longer enabled, and the defaults ublock lists will cover a lot of the same.
Also the heuristics can be exploited to create a unique identifier for your browser, so it’s not a flawless solution.
