Finally migrated back to Firefox today after a multi year user of Chrome.

What pushed me over the edge? Most of my app icons (keep, pulse, calender, whatsapp) stopped opening in their own windows again.

I had to install the PWA extension in Firefox to get that working again, and it's going to be a slight hassle having to copy and paste URLs from all those windows, but I'm tired of fixing the task bar icons.

Could've gone to Edge since it would work out of the box, but I like Firefox. (except for no native PWA support.)

Edit: found I can right click links in the PWA instances and use the send to other device option to open them in my main Firefox window.

uBO has all you need, ClearURLs is not needed. Use these filter lists instead:

  1. ➗ Actually Legitimate URL Shortener Tool
  2. ClearURLs for uBo (unofficial)

Also, Badger does the same as uBO, therefore you don't need it. The same thing goes for cookies. Use default Annoyances lists (Adguard + EasyList) and add that:

  1. I don't care about cookies

    Thank you for your lists, mind if i ask you where do you find this kind of info?

    I am not sure if I got the question? I have been using uBO from the beginning and can clearly remember as year after year uBO was able to replace more and more extensions. Furthermore, I think (assume) that addon you are using has something to do with JavaScript and thus may be replaced with uBO. But you either know how to write the rules or know the list with those rules. Personally, I made a personal list for everything I need yet is not founded anywhere within available lists.

    I highly recomend you to read the uBO documentation. It has all you may need to understand it better: uBlock Origin Wiki
