ublock origin has a cookie notice and nag filter that removes those.

go into the settings and turn on the annoyance filters, they are awesome.

Also FWIW you should care about cookies. That said, I use that filter in UBO but I'm wondering if using it is the same as hitting "reject all" or "accept all"? Does it even matter if you're using Firefox and thus isolating cookies regardless?

Why don't you download something like Voyager or Thunder from f-droid?

Try out boost (for Lemmy), and if you like it there's a small one time payment option to support the Dev and remove ads

[–] [email protected] 2 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Oh for sure. Sync offers that as well, I just haven't taken it up yet.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Try [email protected] It's dev is more active than Sync and Boost. And don't have any ads.

If you want a usable mail for all your accounts that is also spam resistant, may I recommend https://port87.com

[–] [email protected] 7 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Or just buy a domain for like $12 and use it for catch-all email. My custom domain routes everything to a single inbox, and I can tailor the email address specifically to who/what I’m making an account for. And if I ever see spam hit that address, I can just set a rule to automatically spam anything that comes in at that address.

For example, maybe I sign up for a Target account using Target@[mydomain]. Then a few weeks later, I see spam addressed to Target@[mydomain]. I now know Target has sold my info, and I can automatically route everything addressed to Target@[mydomain] directly to spam. Now I have no more spam hitting my inbox, because it all automatically gets sent straight to spam.

What happens if you need to place an order using your Target account. Wouldn't your receipt and shipping confirmation also go to that spam folder?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Eh. If I need it it will show up in search, which is how I would look for it anyway.

Dear god. My inner 90's kid wants this as a browser.

Did not know Privacy Badger existed, it's going right on the must have corner

[–] [email protected] 2 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Nah, uBlock Origin is the must have, Privacy Badger doesn't bring anything more.

As long as you're using Firefox strict mode, yes.

I have yet to see unpaywall workk ever. All that site does is link you to free versions if legally available. So it does nothing. Bypass Paywalls clean sometimes works, but if you want non mainstream sites going to archive.today is the most reliable option.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 17 hours ago (2 children)

I noticed archive websites sometimes skip the paywall
