Show HN: uBlock Origin filters to remove distractions
I use something similar to this, the only differences are because my use case is privacy protection and avoiding algorithmic feeds. I use the Redirector extension for Firefox so that it redirects e.g. Youtube, Twitter, and StackOverflow links to the corresponding alternative frontends Piped, Nitter, and AnonymousOverflow. You can find maintained lists [1] [2] of such projects and their instances. Mostly they are FOSS and privacy-respecting, and they have distraction-free frontends because it's a helpful coincidence of being ethical software.

Librewolf passes all the deep privacy tests. Is it the best Firefox fork?
There are front end alternatives for major sites if you really need that btw. I use from time time to time Invidious when I want t o see a YT video for example. As for sites that require tracking cookies to work I simply stopped using them. If a given site requires the use of intrusive "necessary" cookies I just stop using it. I'm convinced is about priorities. If you quit a browser that is safe because is slow, well, you need to re-estate your priorities imho (not you, op, anyone ;) ).
