In my opinion, the most useful extensions in this list are metamask and ublock
Ublock because nobody should be watching ads.
And metamsk because it is also a security extension, as it will alert of most basic phishing sites.
Look what happens when you try to access a phishing site while using metamask.
It doesn't work for all phishing, but it may save some newbies funds.

While you're speaking about extensions here, I believe there's nothing that can be called as safe and secure when it comes to being useful in case of using and hodling crypto. You should be very careful while using such extensions because some of them need specific permissions and that could also lead to many malicious effects to your coins. Some extensions come with viruses that could lead to data loss where even your privkeys can be compromised. Don't use these things in a PC you generally us to store your coins in.

Most of the crypto users holding MEW wallet as a place to store their tokens so having an extension called MyEtherWallet will be really helpful.
