I tried to pick a few that help me with work (e.g. summarising something, fixing or improving the process).
Here are my must-haves:

• Buyerstage  bookmarking LinkedIn posts

• ColorZilla to pick colours from websites (a must for graphics work)

• Grammarly  grammar checking and grammar correction

• Save Tweets Forever  bookmarking Twitter posts

• SimilarWeb for a quick overview of website stats

• SurfPal a time tracker to keep screen time in check

• TidyRead  AI summarising texts from websites

• Tweet Hunter analysing Twitter posts and profiles

Of course, I have more, but these are essential to me.
