Tampermonkey is an absolutely indispensable browser extension that truly puts you in control of your web Browse experience. If you've ever thought, "I wish this website did this," or "I'd love to change that," Tampermonkey is the powerful tool that makes it possible.
Its core strength lies in its ability to run userscripts—small pieces of JavaScript code that can modify web pages as they load. This opens up a world of possibilities: from adding new features to your favorite sites, blocking persistent pop-ups, simplifying complex interfaces, or even integrating data from different sources. The vast and active community of userscripts means you can often find ready-made solutions for common needs, or easily tweak them to fit your specific requirements.
Managing your scripts is straightforward, and the built-in editor, while initially appearing a bit technical, is surprisingly robust. It offers syntax highlighting and basic debugging, making script development much more manageable. I've found Tampermonkey to be remarkably reliable and consistently performant across various browsers. It runs silently in the background, only activating when needed, without any noticeable performance overhead.
For anyone who wants to tailor the web to their exact preferences and go beyond standard browser settings, Tampermonkey is an essential addition. It empowers you to make your Browse more efficient, enjoyable, and personalized.

- Rated 1 out of 5by molitar, 22 days agoLatest release has broken Firefox. When starting Firefox it no longer allows any network connectivity. Unable to even open google.com. Totally and utterly broke in latest update. When it does open it takes over 5 minutes sometimes before I can browse.

Unfortunately not open source and complex, which may mean that enterprise users may not have permission to use it as enterprise IT departments are tightening their security policies.
And unfortunately, there is another extension of almost identical name ("Tamper monkey" which even uses Tampermonkey's icon/logo), which may trick people into installing the wrong extension. While I have reported this, I think the author of this extension should have more luck to get Mozilla to ban that other "fake" extension. - Rated 1 out of 5by user, 2 months agoUse “Greasemonkey” or “Violentmonkey”, both open‑source, whereas “Tampermonkey” is closed‑source.
