Browser extension stores are full of clutter, but a small set of genuinely useful ones can noticeably improve everyday browsing.

Worth Installing

A reputable ad and tracker blocker speeds up page loads and reduces intrusive popups. A password manager extension autofills logins securely, and a reader mode extension strips clutter from text-heavy pages, making long articles far easier to read.

Keep It Lean

Every extension installed adds a small amount of browser overhead and a potential privacy risk, so periodically reviewing and removing ones you no longer use is worth doing. Only install extensions from verified publishers with a solid review history.

A handful of well-chosen extensions does far more for daily browsing than a browser cluttered with dozens of rarely used ones.
