Tree Style Tabs is a must for me. It makes the tab/tab goup functionality in other browsers feel awful.

Most of those Addons are for me to not go insane or blind.
How do you use no script these days, are you turning it on after visiting a page, or whitelisting when things don't work?
I whitelist after visiting a page, if it breaks majorly so I can't use it. And often I only need to allow the main page's scripts and maybe video., img. or cdn. subdomains.
What's Karrinator?
There's nothing that explains it on its description page. Based on comments on its page (translated to English), my wild guess is: it's making people laugh while reading news somehow by changing names of politicians in the news articles.
Thanks for the other suggestions too.
Damn, I just noticed I accidentally wrote in german, I didn't even notice the post is in english lol. To Germans it would make sense, as it's exactly what you noticed; it just changes Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauers name to something funny, she's an ex-defense minister of Germany.
LOL.
Why specifically her though. Although, the idea is neat. Does it generate random funny names?

Is there anything that disables / stops sticky videos when scrolling on mobile?
I get pissed off when I'm reading a news article, scroll down, and their headline video (often just an ad) clips itself to the top 1/3 of the screen.

Tab Session Manager
Lots of great extensions have been listed already, but here's one that I haven't seen mentioned yet and I really like: https://unhook.app/
Nice! UnHook removes YouTube recommended videos, related videos, comments, video suggestions wall, homepage recommendations, trending tab & comments
uBlock Origin and Mouse Gestures.
Literally all I have ever used. I love mouse gestures so much because of Opera. I was using that for a bit before I discovered Firefox back in the day.

Others have already mentioned some excellent vertical tab add-ons, so I'll post Tabs Aside, which is a super convenient way to save and load a window full of tabs. Saves having like 20 windows open with different stuff you don't want to lose.
Neat, I'll try this. I don't think the others save entire browser windows. So, maybe this has a different use.
Aside from the popular ublock origin I'd get Sponsor Block. Too bad my mobile version doesn't support it.
