I could not possibly browse without Adblock. I am too spoiled.

I couldn't see half the sites I like to look at without No Squint.

And Tabgroups. I don't remember how I browsed before I got that one.

I currently have 19 extensions running.....

Default gTranslate

Found another one that I love!

gTranslate lets you select a line of foreign text, right click, and see the Google translation of it! It even works with Japanese!
