I have connected my Ubuntu PC to my TV to serve as my source for media consumption as well as for scrolling through some online fora. Sometimes I have the need to transfer links and random text from the PC to my phone. An extension to convert any selected text to QR code comes very handy in those times. The QR Code reader in my phone keeps track of what was scanned in the past so that's neat too.

Ad blocker. Same for every browser.

I feel naked without uBlock Origin and Bitwarden on whatever browser I'm on.

Back then it definitely was an adblock. I think Ghostery was one of my favorites. Now, you gotta be stupid if you still actively use Chrome as your main browser.

My favorite chrome extension is not having anything to do with google at all

I misread and thought you asked “what’s your favorite chromosome extension?”

[-] tal@lemmy.today 6 points 20 hours ago

I don't use Chrome, but a favorite Firefox extension is Dark Reader (dynamically makes webpages that lack dark mode support dark mode), and it's available for Chrome. So maybe that.

Not using Chrome as a daily driver.

For Firefox I use 20. 4 for YouTube directly 2 for Twitch 2 for Steam uBlock Origin Privacy Badger

Besides that, I use the following: Flagfox - Shows me a Flag in the address bar. This way I know where the server IP is located and with a click on it, I get some information, like who owns the IP. Keepa - A price tracker and alert for Amazon Tampermonkey - Userscripts for websites
