What is a stick computer?
and Slimjet has built-in ad blocking plus I have the AdBlock, Privacy
Badger and Ghostery extensions installed. When you mentioned scripts
I've heard of Adblock because I use it on my browser, but Slimjet is new
to me, and so is Privacy Badger. Seems like I've heard of Ghostery,
once upon a time, but can't remember where.

Here are links. The tiny computer is a bit limited but I like it for what it can do. I have the optional multimedia remote which works well but the buttons are so small I must switch to my 4X reading glasses to see them.. I have an older full sized Logitech wireless keyboard and mouse I use instead of the multimedia remote. Privacy Badger is a product of The Electronic Frontier Foundation which leans Liberal but the members have the right ideas about privacy and everyone should read their stuff. ヽ(ヅ)ノ

So, if I use AdBlocker with firefox, do I also need any of these other ones?

I haven't tried them with Firefox but you should give the Slimjet browser a try. It's based on Chrome so the same extensions work. When I change any settings or extensions in Slimjet on this tiny Win 10 stick, it all shows up on my Win 7 laptop running Slimjet. ヽ(ヅ)ノ

Firefox has an ap that syncs with multiple devices. My crappy Android
tablet apparently does not like it and closes it down.
That's the reason I like to experiment with different web browsers. I have a 7" Amazon Fire tablet that I only use to watch Amazon Prime videos when I'm on the toilet dropping a load of readymix. I used to have a novel or newspaper with me when I had to visit the throne room. Technology has changed everything. I have a 10.1" Android tablet that I rarely use and I should really play with it more so I can learn all the nuances of the Android OS. I don't have a smartass phone or any modern working Apple product. If I were to get a smartass phone it would be an Android phone but since I had cataract surgery I need 4X reading glasses to see the screen on one of those evil devices. ヽ(ヅ)ノ
