Go to 'Tools', then 'Add-ons' go to search and type in 'Block'. There are a bunch to look through.

On the top of FF is a menu bar, that is what I am referring to.
I am not familiar with Windows Edge. |

I wouldn't run Firefox without Adblock and Noscript installed.
I opened another browser, not too long ago, and went onto a couple my favorite websites and could not believe how much crap they ran. I'd never seen all that stuff with my Firefox add-ons installed.
