I really enjoy Firefox on Android as I can install a bunch of extensions and I find those extensions game changer, especially on the mobile.

One of my favorites are

Libredirect - literally one of my favorite ones. Redirects popular sites to privacy focused frontends, like YouTube to Invidious, etc.
uBlock Origin - I guess everyone knows this one
Privacy Badger - blocks trackers
Ghostery - blocks trackers, ads, scripts, etc.

What extensions do you guys use?

They don't. I'm telling you they don't. When I disable my ad blocker, the ads I see are not relevant to me. Many times they're not even in a language that I can speak.

They are not tracking me between sessions. Its obvious.

What you're saying makes sense, and its why Tor does what it does. But in practice, this works too.
