Tracker blocking precedence with Ghostery vs Firefox tracker detection

I have Ghostery installed and when going to a website the list of trackers Ghostery blocks shows up in the status block that Ghostery projects onto that web page. Then going to the security shield icon that Firefox has next to the 'Home' icon on the address bar, Firefox reports 'No trackers known to Firefox were detected on this page'.

Can someone explain the order of precedence for detecting and blocking trackers here? Does Ghostery intercept the web page load before Firefox analyzes the page for trackers? If Ghostery blocks trackers is this the reason Firefox does not detect trackers?

Running Firefox 104.0.2 on Windows 10 Pro - latest installed patches as of 9/21/22.

And finally does Ghostery (not running Ghostery Plus) keep a list of web URL and blocked trackers somewhere?

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

This is pretty much a duplicate of https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1334684 : I have the uBlock Origin and Skip Redirect extensions installed, both work by checking/modifying the URL of the site I am trying to visit.

Unfortunately, I am running into some sites that are re-directed via some tracking URLs. Here's one example I had today:

Original URL: https://sslh62px.r.us-east-2.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F%2Fwww.allaboutcircuits.com%2Ftechnical-articles%2Fanalyzing-dc-and-steady-state-ac-circuits-with-python%2F/2/010f01832042551a-ed0a0774-ca39-4cd9-825e-a375504c6ea5-000000/c7T-m43jFRD5B3k49nHcvIOhCtM=71

As you can see, the destination URL is embedded within the tracker URL and as such, is exactly what Skip Redirect was designed to deal with. Unfortunately, uBlock Origin seems to look at the URL before Skip Redirect does and blocks it outright because it is a known tracker (awstrack.me).

If I could tell Firefox to let Skip Redirect modify the URL first (to https://www.allaboutcircuits.com/technical-articles/analyzing-dc-and-steady-state-ac-circuits-with-python/ ), uBlock Origin didn't need to block access to it.

Is there a way to change the order in which extensions are applied (i.e. get to run) when a URL is opened?

I have Firefox installed on Linux (Fedora), Windows, and macOS, and on Windows and Mac, I can use ctrl (cmd on Mac) + shift + Y to open the Bitwarden extension. On Linux, this instead opens the downloads library (which is normally ctrl + shift + j...). Is there any way to change the shortcuts on Linux to be the same as the other two OSes? Judging by the many many open questions on this site about changing shortcuts, I'm not holding my breath...

I'm a Firefox Desktop and Mobile phone User for Long back, very recently I understood that One important feature that is missing in firefox Desktop is the "Desktop Password protection for our Saved logins". in my Mobile I use Lockwise as a password saver, now it's discontinued, so I used to save in the Browser itself. but there the Passwords and login are protected by our biometric protection or the pic. very recently i signed in with my firefox account in College PC in Laboritory to enable the Extension like ghostery. After I did sign out... but most of my friends saw my passwords, they are very close to me so they didn't misuse that..

I wish a password protection in Firefox Desktop and After signing out all the Login password has to be deleted...

I learned the hard way about a month ago that my main bank will not work with firefox. I've now received notices from two other banks that state they only support safari on Mac. I have run into issues with some others that will either give errors but still allow me to pass through or others that state I have an unsupported browser but still allow me to log into the site - for now.

With this wide a net, this seems to be specific to the security issues in the Mac browser. Is this already being looked into? Is this specific to the new OS and firefox integration?

While I basically trust Safari, I certainly don't want to use it unless I have to and I generally use firefox exclusively on all my Macs and PCs. Can someone shine a light on this? Is there an upgrade or update planned?

Thanks

Even if I simply type "walmart.com", it takes me to the log-in page but it doesn't allow me to log in. I can't even browse their website in Firefox. I restarted my computer (desktop), but that didn't help. I have always used Firefox to access Walmart. I tried my other browsers, and they work fine.

youtube is the only site that streams properly(mostly), any other site gets stuck with 3 god dam dots in the middle. OTHER BROWSERS work JUST FINE. but I dont want to use internet explorer anymore. FF USED to work well.

some site literally just stop playing video. for 10+ minutes or until I intervene. if I copy the link and put it into edge it streams without issues.

internet, router, and pc are not the problem, I'm having a firefox issue. ive reinstalled the browser and cleared cache but nothing fixes streaming.
