I really enjoy Firefox on Android as I can install a bunch of extensions and I find those extensions game changer, especially on the mobile.

One of my favorites are

Libredirect - literally one of my favorite ones. Redirects popular sites to privacy focused frontends, like YouTube to Invidious, etc.
uBlock Origin - I guess everyone knows this one
Privacy Badger - blocks trackers
Ghostery - blocks trackers, ads, scripts, etc.

What extensions do you guys use?

For me, it's many of the ones people have already said, plus:

StreetPass (seriously cool - collects the mastodon profile of any website you visit where someone has set up the special link to their profile)
Video Speed Controller (gives you fine-grained control over video speed, e.g. watching video at 2.6x speed)
Privacy redirect (automatically redirects to various services, e.g. from Twitter to Nitter - can select a random instance each time)

Privacy redirect is unmaintained, not updated for 3 years, switch to LibRedirect

Thank you for taking the time to write this, LibRedirect is so much better!
