This page superseded FSD:IceCat extensions (proposed) because Firefox 57 (so IceCat 57) will ONLY run WebExtensions Firefox 57.

IceCat is based on Firefox ESR. Firefox ESR version 57 will be released between 2018-03-06 and 2018-06-26 according to Mozillas RapidRelease/calendar. It will take some weeks extra for IceCat to build.

uBlock Origin
Finally, an efficient blocker. Easy on CPU and memory. Review note: uBlock Origin is ideally used with Violentmonkey and user script Anti-Adblock Killer Continued (AAK-Cont). "uBlock Origin ("uBO") and uMatrix must be considered incompatible with NoScript." - Raymond Hill, author of uBlock Origin. You can subscribe to GNU IceCat SpyBlock filters “Block all well known privacy trackers: (high risk of web page breakage)” and “Block all third party resources when in private browsing: (high risk of web page breakage in private browsing mode)” through https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Filter-lists-from-around-the-web#external-filter-lists-of-interest. SpyBlock uses filters merged from EasyList, and EasyList is already enabled by default in uBO. However, duplicated filters will be discarded so you can subscribe to anything you want without being concerned about CPU usage. uBlock Origin is an excellent tool to block popunders, currently the only of its kind.

Google search link fix This extension prevents Google, Yahoo and Yandex search pages from modifying search result links when you click them. This is useful when copying links but it also helps privacy by preventing the search engines from recording your clicks.



Privacy Badger
Protects your privacy by blocking spying ads and invisible trackers. Review note: Prevents canvas based fingerprinting, (like CanvasBlocker) supercookies (like Click&Clean), and unique cookies that contain tracking IDs.


Snap Links Plus Select a number of links with a rectangle and open them all in new tabs in the same or a new window(s), download them or copy them to the clipboard. You can also lasso checkboxes to quickly check or uncheck them.

Violentmonkey
Violentmonkey provides userscripts support for browsers. Review note: Useful to block anti-blockers with developed user scripts. User Scripts are licensed separately by their authors so you should check them separately in order to verify if they are free software.


Zoom Page WE
Zoom web pages either per-site or per-tab, with optional fit-to-width and minimum text size, using the toolbar button, context menu, keyboard shortcuts or mouse wheel. Review note: You have to configure it to make it useful, for example on 20” computer monitors people usually prefer: Preferences -> Zoom levels -> Default Level (%): 150
This extension can be used as a workaround to Firefox bug: Set a Default Text Size (or Page Zoom Level) in Tools > Options > Content > Default Page Size - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=332275
