I use BitWarden for my password manager.  It's FOSS and cross-browser, so
if (horror of horrors) I have to use Chrome for something I can still get
at my passwords.

I use DuckDuckGo for the search engine.

DecentralEyes to cut down on the trackers, plus the built in Firefox stuff.

UBlock Origin, of course..

Pi-hole to cut back on the advertisements.

And Privacy Badger to keep RMS out of my hair...
