I'd actually recommend consent-o-matic instead of IDCAC. It actually selects the minimum concent for you instead of just hiding it.
EDIT: Ignore my blind confidence. CAD is (mostly) broken in recent FF versions. (See ivn's reply to this post).
Consent-o-Matic with Cookie Auto Delete and Firefox's Multi-Account Container tabs covers it all nicely for me.
Cookie banners get handled, cookies I don't explicitly want to keep automatically disappear when I leave the site/close the tab, and those I do want to keep can be given their own containers to keep them separated.
Cookie autodelete doesn't work with strict mode and you should use strict mode. Just drop it.
You don't need an extension to auto remove cookies with Firefox.

Drop IDCAC and Privacy Badger, add consent-o-matic, sponsorblock and bypass paywall clean.
Check Arkenfox for Firefox config and extension recommendations.

Only use temp mails for unimportant, one-shot account, otherwise use an email relay.
It looks like bypass paywalls clean was actually taken down recently. Apparently mozzila recieved a copyright claim and it was taken down as a normal part of that process :/

It's insane how big a fight we have to put to JUST surf the damn Internet.
Why drop privacy badger? It's been working well for me.
Because it doesn't bring anything more than Firefox in strict mode and uBlock Origin.

DONT use the "I Don't Care About Cookies" plugin. It was sold to Avast. The same company that stole users information and sold it ON A PRIVACY PRODUCT illegally for years causing them to get sued for 16 million. (slap on the wrist tbh)

Why would someone use that instead of uBlock origin cookie filter?
Its really best to keep browser extensions as few as possible for fingerprinting resistance
To OP/readers you're OK with extensions this would be a better pick imo (read installation instructions)
Why would someone use that instead of uBlock origin cookie filter?
Not using the addon, but I simply didn’t know uBlock can do that.

Privacy badger is not longer needed IIRC, its role is taken care by uBlock.
IDCAC should not be on this list since it was compromised, ABP-style. consent-o-matic is probably better but the most direct replacement is "I Still Don't Care About Cookies".

UBO can block YT ads, no need to use a seperate ad blocker for YT
Sponsorblock to auto skip sponsor segments, or even non music parts of music on YouTube. Or interaction reminders, or end credits, etc can make it a little bit how you want it
ublock origin has a cookie notice and nag filter that removes those.
go into the settings and turn on the annoyance filters, they are awesome.

Ublock origin already has privacy badger and no cookies functionality. Worst case nothing gets blocked. Also slower internet for you.
What’s the upside down Z-Library icon in the lower left for YT?
Invidous
Currently, it is recovering from attacks from Google. Only self-hosting works reliably at the moment..

Go into uBO settings and then filters and enable all the non-language filters. You won't need privacy badger or that cookie addon anymore.
I’m not saying my setup is any better, but it currently looks like this:
- Firefox
- UBO
- SponsorBlock
- Return YouTube Dislikes
- DeArrow
- Archive.ph
I’m open to suggestions if anybody knows any better alternatives. I’ve had mixed luck with services that filter out YouTube’s crap.
Be careful with using Privacy Badger and uBO together as it might get in each other's way. I had YouTube detect me having ad block until I paused Privacy Badger for YT.
NewPipe and FreeTube if you want YT subscriptions without ads
Addy.io or simplelogin for email account signups
