What Hacker News says
31 sourcesI am using 14 different extensions in Firefox. I don't think any of them have broken due to a Firefox update for at least the past 3 years.
The only maintenance I have had to do was when the "I don't care about cookie's" extension got sold out, so had to switch to a fork [1]. That was 2-3 years ago.

In OneDev – Self-hosted Git server with CI/CD, Kanban, and packagesWhat's the difference between this and "I still don't care about cookies"[0]?

In Show HN: A Chrome extension that will auto-reject non-essential cookiesFunny, I use the "I still don't care about cookies" extension (https://github.com/OhMyGuus/I-Still-Dont-Care-About-Cookies) right now to automatically accept the cookie banners. They're literally one of the most annoying things that has happened in the web's history
In Block cookie banners on FirefoxThat's why GP is using "I *still* don't care about cookies" ;)
https://github.com/OhMyGuus/I-Still-Dont-Care-About-Cookies
In Mozilla expands extension support for Firefox for Androidhttps://github.com/OhMyGuus/I-Still-Dont-Care-About-Cookies works much better, in my experience.
In German court prohibits LinkedIn from ignoring "Do Not Track" signalshttps://github.com/OhMyGuus/I-Still-Dont-Care-About-Cookies does reject non-technical cookies – as much as it can – but https://github.com/Cookie-AutoDelete/Cookie-AutoDelete will do the rest.

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/multi-account... for subdomains you want to log into but still want to access the main and other domains without being connected. For instance, I have it set always open mail.google.com in the Work container so that I can log into Gmail but still search google.com, navigate google.com/maps (etc) outside the work account.
Then, install https://github.com/Cookie-AutoDelete/Cookie-AutoDelete and set it to delete all data from all domains expect the ones you want to stay logged into (Google for instance… but only inside the Work container

mentioned above). Then, all websites data (including cookies) will be auto-deleted a few seconds after your close all tabs from that domain. You have to enable the auto-cleaning and support for containers.
You can tweak a few more things but that should be enough.
I also recommend the awesome https://gitlab.com/magnolia1234/bypass-paywalls-firefox-clea... add-on but only for users who support some media financially. It's fine to workaround paywalls (such a bad system) but good journalists still needs to be paid somehow.
Idem with https://github.com/ajayyy/SponsorBlock
As for mobile, I use the excellent https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.mozilla.fennec_fdroid/ on Android. You can have the above add-ons there too, but you need to use Collections for that (as explained here: https://www.androidpolice.com/install-add-on-extension-mozil...). But this won't be necessary soon https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2023/08/10/prepare-your-fire...
By the way, Firefox will soon get rid off all cookies banner without the need for "I still don't care about cookies" add-on: https://alternativeto.net/news/2023/6/firefox-115-beta-relea...
I much prefer https://github.com/OhMyGuus/I-Still-Dont-Care-About-Cookies (far more reliable in my experience)
In The EU's war on behavioral advertisingJust so you know, "I don't care about cookies" was sold to Avast last year:

There is a fork called "I still don't care about cookies" which is probably worth switching to unless you trust Avast:

In Tell HN: "I don't care about cookies” extension bought by Avast, users jump shipRandom aside: this extension had absolutely the worst internals of any I've ever looked at. Love the functionality, but really wish I'd never seen the spaghetti behind the illusion (source files below). It feels like approaching it as a text classification problem might produce a clean general solution

In Tell HN: "I don't care about cookies” extension bought by Avast, users jump shipIt's not perfect, but you might be looking for the "I still don't care about Cookies"[1] or Consent-O-Matic[2] extensions.
