Firefox Channels
Firefox Release - Use this as a last resort or you will be laughed at by men that use less stable software than you.
Nightly - Automatic builds of Firefox every day. Bleeding edge features, but stuff can break. Don't go asking /g/ if something is broken when you're using Nightly. It's probably because you're using Nightly.
Useful Extensions
- Additional Filters. You probably want Easylist, EasyPrivacy, Fanboy's Annoyances, and Malware Domains.
- FxIF - View EXIF data in image properties.
- HTTPS Everywhere - Switches to HTTPS versions of webpages
- HTTPS Finder - Detects available https and creates HTTPS Everywhere rules
- NoScript - Whitelists execution of JavaScript, Plugins and other stuff

- ViewTube - Replaces flash video players with HTML5.
- ViewTubePlus - ViewTube for porn.

Libre forks
Since the Firefox brand is copyrighted by the Mozilla Foundation, special forks exist, created to remove those copyrighted assets and replace them with free/libre ones.
- GNU IceCat is a fork mantained by the GNU Project. Besides replacing the copyrighted bits, IceCat adds some small security/privacy features, and hosts a list of addons that are released under a free license.
- IceWeasel is the fork mantained by the Debian Project. It was created to fit Debians philosophy of backporting, instead of updating to a newer version more nicely.
