Finally migrated back to Firefox today after a multi year user of Chrome.

What pushed me over the edge? Most of my app icons (keep, pulse, calender, whatsapp) stopped opening in their own windows again.

I had to install the PWA extension in Firefox to get that working again, and it's going to be a slight hassle having to copy and paste URLs from all those windows, but I'm tired of fixing the task bar icons.

Could've gone to Edge since it would work out of the box, but I like Firefox. (except for no native PWA support.)

Edit: found I can right click links in the PWA instances and use the send to other device option to open them in my main Firefox window.

uBO has all you need, ClearURLs is not needed. Use these filter lists instead:

  1. ➗ Actually Legitimate URL Shortener Tool
  2. ClearURLs for uBo (unofficial)

Also, Badger does the same as uBO, therefore you don't need it. The same thing goes for cookies. Use default Annoyances lists (Adguard + EasyList) and add that:

  1. I don't care about cookies

You have a new list in uBO for the cookies banner.
