3. Lastpass - Use your browser's built in manager. Chrome has a custom sync password and Firefox has a master password option. One less extension.
4. HTTPs everywhere can be avoided if you use Brave, as it automatically upgrades to HTTPs when available. You can set dom.security.https_only_mode to true in Firefox for a https only browsing experience.
5. Decentraleyes - Not that useful as it doesn't contain too many cached resources. Use LocalCDN if absolutely insist on using something similar.
The more extensions you install, the more people you are trusting not to sell out. Most of these extensions request access to all sites (passwords, cookies, browsing history). Try to keep the number of extensions as low as possible.
Productivity extensions usually lead to more wastage of time. I do not recommend anything. Use whatever you like.
From a comment I noted down some time ago where the user provided a comparison between Decentraleyes and LocalCDN:
- Decentraleyes has the advantage of being a "recommended" webextension which "undergoes a thorough technical security review to ensure it adheres to Mozilla’s add-on policies."
- Decentraleyes' has public ownership; Thomas Reintjes.
- Decentraleyes' last commit and last activity by the maintainer was 4 months ago; there are 78 open issues, and 9 merge requests with no indication of being merged in anytime soon. So I assume
- LocalCDN was forked because Decentraleyes actually appears stale which is unfortunate.
- LocalCDN doesn't have public ownership.
- LocalCDN isn't a recommended webextension and thus updates won't undergo "thorough technical security reviews."
- LocalCDN does support more assets/CDNs (which increases privacy beyond Decentraleyes) and will support more.
- LocalCDN has not slipped a new permission in. Compare LocalCDN's manifest.json with Decentraleyes'.
It's been the same since the extension started being developed.
Reddit comments are mostly the same info being spread again. One redditor must have posted wrong info and other users spread the same thing. Never trust them blindly.

6. Nimbus Screenshot - Screenity (https://github.com/alyssaxuu/screenity) is open source and much better.
