Which add ons do you recommend for Abrowser in 2025?
depends on what country you live in
The web browser is not an isolated program for your own personal enjoyment, instead, it's a tiny pebble within the greater context of the system of networks you call "the internet"
How the browser behaves, how you experience the internet, is dependent upon that context.
So, where are you from and which add-ons do you recommend to the Abrowser in your country?
I recommend to people now, not to use *abrowser* it's evil...
it's only purpose now, is to meet the demands of contemporary web services, to *fit in* with the crowd
it would be better to completely separate it, from your own dedicated operating system, and to avoid using it completely.
we need new paradigms for using the internet really, web browsers like abrowser are a complete virtual domain, a complete operating system in themselves, isolated from the rest of the host, so malicious activity always has a simple/clean environment to operate within, and doesn't suffer any obstacles to itself barring a tremendous effort with like attempting to manage a variety of addons...It's a complete waste of time, because you're still going to be using the same system in various capacities that is ultimately designed to serve the broader system of networks. and not your own individual freedom.
NoScript if you have a problem with javascript but there's still a bunch of places you'd rather visit despite the fact, other than nothing that isn't already well known such as Ublock Origin.
If you do really hate javascript (everyone should in an ideal world) you can set the flag javascript.enabled to false in the about:config settings page.
Add-ons to enhance privacy? There are add-ons for different purposes.
Privacy Badger and ublock origin are good ones for privacy for current firefox based web browsers such as Icecat, Abrowser and also Librewolf or Mullvad. Although not sure how free the last two are in terms of settings built in.
Also, AdNauseam and JShelter
IF you get the 3rd one i listed, don't get any others.
If you get the 4th or the 1st or 2nd you can get all but the 3rd however.
Reason being, Adnauseum doesn't do its job right with those other addons in place.
Mullvad browser appears to be completely libre. I think Magic Banana and I gave it a look over a few months ago and couldn't find any licensing issues at all. One nice thing about it is that Mullvad has one of those portable tar packages that will run on just about any GNU/Linux distro - doesn't have to be a Debian-based distro. So if you are using a distro where it's hard to get Abrowser or IceCat installed, might want to give Mullvad a shot. But it also has a deb package repo, so you can add that repo to a Debian-based distro and keep it updated with your regular apt upgrades.
