## Utilities
Extensions that add some helpful tools to the Firefox browsing experience. Usually super useful for some people, and largely unnecessary for others; it all depends on you!

* [Indie Wiki Buddy](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/indie-wiki-buddy/): Provides a direct link to an independently-maintained alternative to nearly all Fandom wikis you might visit.
* [Swift Selection Search](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/swift-selection-search/): Access a fully customizable list of search engines directly from a highlighted portion of text.
* [Progressive Web Apps](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/pwas-for-firefox/): Turns websites into stand-alone applications when requested - only available for websites that support the PWA format. Particularly useful for apps that might not need an active internet connection to function (i.e. Excalidraw)
* [Web Archives](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/view-page-archive/): Allows you to quickly access archives of the website you're currently on, from a variety of archive services.
* [Sidebery](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/sidebery/) Highly customizable tab manager, including tools such as grouping tabs by container, organizing bookmarks in different formats, custom rules for offloading tabs, and plenty more.
* [Firefox Multi-Account Containers](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/multi-account-containers/): Improve the already-existing "containers" feature of Firefox by introducing custom containers, allowing you to isolate tabs from one another so you can log into multiple accounts on the same website, avoid cookie troubles, and more.
* [SingleFile](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/single-file/): Download any webpages you visit to a single, portable HTML file.
* [De-Troll YouTube](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/de-troll-youtube-hide-comments/): Permanently remove spam and troll accounts from comment sections.
* [LibRedirect](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/): Automatically redirects you from privacy-disrespecting websites to more reasonably-behaving frontends - same content, better experience. And, yes, you can pick and choose what gets redirected and to where!
* [LanguageTool](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/languagetool/): A writing assistant to improve your grammar, spelling, and prose across all the websites in which you type; pretty much an free and open-source alternative to Grammarly.
* [Snowflake](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/torproject-snowflake/): Allow individuals in internet-censored countries to leverage your browser connection as an entrypoint to the uncensorable TOR network (you can read more on their add-on page to understand why this is secure).
* [Enhancer for YouTube](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/enhancer-for-youtube/): Take complete control over your YouTube viewing experience, from disabling those annoying cards that show up at the end of videos, to creating custom keyboard shortcuts. Works well with Return Youtube Dislike. *Alternatives: Improve Youtube*
* [JustDeleteMe](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/justdeleteme/): Adds a little icon to your browser showing you how difficult it is to delete an account you might make on the current website.
* [Netflix International](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/netflix-international): Allows you to select *any* of the available audio and subtitle tracks for whatever you're watching on Netflix from all the countries in which its available. English subtitles for your favorite foreign show are only available on the German version of Netflix? Not anymore!
* [Improve YouTube](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/youtube-addon/): Fine-grained control over the entire YouTube experience. *Alternatives: Enhancer for YouTube*
* [Auto Tab Discard](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/auto-tab-discard/): Offloads unused tabs from memory to save RAM (THIS DOES NOT DELETE TABS, the name is based on the underlying code used to build the add-on.)
* [Chrome Mask](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/chrome-mask/): Allows you to "trick" certain websites into thinking you're on Chrome, which may improve functionality (looking at you, YouTube...)
* [Gesturefy](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/gesturefy/): Use mouse gestures to control your browsing experience, allocating things like a counterclockwise turn or a swipe right to do things like going back a page, opening a new tab, and more. **Note:** This only allows *mouse* gestures, *not* touchpad gestures.
* [600% Sound Volume](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/600-sound-volume/): Take advantage of all your speakers' power by increasing the maximum sound output YouTube allows.
* [Dark Reader](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/darkreader/): Automatically render any website in a dark mode theme.
* [Copy PlainText](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/copy-plaintext/): Copy website text without any of the formatting. No more unexpected changes in font or color when you add stuff to your documents.
