Imagus

When you hover your cursor over an image it opens over your cursor and you can enlarge it

Can't live without now

This just made my life so much easier, thanks for posting this. IT Glue recently introduced a bug they have acknowledged where you can no longer hover over large images to see the full size, making half of our documentation illegible unless you want to force open the image in a new tab. This fixes that entirely.

I may as well post my must have extensions while thanking you:

DarkReader - this combined with f.lux on the machine will save your eyesight

SponsorBlock - makes youtube so much more usable, as well as other video sites

CookieNoticeBlocker - Im guessing there is a way to use ublock to achieve similar results, but it blocks those annoying popups for you

Behind the Overlay- useful for sites that use an overlay to hide article content, click the button and it hides any overlays and suddenly the page is there again

UnPayWall - find the full text to scholarly articles

It's not really an extension, but I installed the Wayback Machine as a seach engine with the keyword "rez". Now I can rez any URL in my address bar.

Primarily uBlock Origin.

I have some browser profiles for testing out extensions which have broad permissions and I don't really trust them. I don't have them on my main surfing profile for security & privacy reasons. If some of them are malicious, they get very little data.

Kill Sticky, it it lets you kill all sticky elements with a keyboard shortcut (Alt+K on Windows/Linux, Cmd+K on Mac). Super useful for "sign-up to read" types of popups.

Old Reddit Redirect. Reddit is pretty much unusable without this thing.

Netflix 1080p (it renders in 720p if not using the OS-default browser, ridiculous)

SponsorBlock (removes sponsored ads in YT)

Empty New Tab Page (I hate start pages, when I open a new tab I usually just want to start typing in an URL, so blank is an improvement)

Buster: Captcha Solver for Humans (Auto completes CAPTCHAS, doesn't always work but saves a lot of time)
