be sure to check out the extensions, there's several that are game changers.
What are some of the game changing extensions?
For me, it was multi-account containers. All Meta properties open in their own independent, sandboxed tabs now. Xwitter opens in a different independent, sandboxed tab. It makes their tracking cookies useless, plus it also lets you be logged into the same service with multiple accounts simultaneously.
We'll, uBlock 😎
Listen here, you little shit

Camelizer, will give you price history for anything on amazon.
Ad nauseum
Vimium. Allows you to use your keyboard to navigate instead of needing to always reach for the mouse.
Libredirect
New tab tools.
You can even do a trick to make it your home tab
"I don't care about cookies" although it does occasionally break some websites
probably different for everyone, for me i use Adblocker Ultimate Ublock Origin Enhancer for Youtube DeArrow Stylebot Buster Context play/pause
You used a comma once. You could have used it again ...
Looking at the source of the comment, OP only hit enter once per extension name they entered, and that's why they're showing up as if they're one long run-on sentence. @[email protected] probably didn't know that you have to double enter for things to show up on separate lines.
I went ahead and found links for all of them, for anyone curious to check em out. I don't personally know any of them, besides uBlock and Stylebot:
Oh thanks! Dearrow looks interesting
thanks Riot, it looked fine in Voyager when i was creating it. hitting enter once for carriage return has been correct for a century, whats with the double enter system?
As far as I know, that's just always how it's been for markdown, which is what Lemmy uses. So in order to be sure that your comment looks the way you want it to, it's a good idea to use the Preview function, which Voyager thankfully also has under the 3 dots menu in the lower right.
@[email protected] also mentioned that you can put two spaces at the end of each word, and then it'll count the one enter as a proper line break.
Like this. You can also do as I did, and just put a dash in front of everything, and then it'll turn into an unordered list.
Christ on a bike, you'd think they'd give it a more succinct name
(Either leave a blank line between lines, or put two spaces at the end of each word)
