Tampermonkey®

Warning: your're using an unofficial version of Tampermonkey!
Please check it for malware because this version was re-packaged!
The Tampermonkey's popup is useful for quickly and easily managing installed userscripts. In some browsers you have to manually pin the icon to see it all the time. It allows users to enable or disable scripts, view the status of scripts, and start update checks without leaving the current page. This makes it easy for users to control the behavior of their installed userscripts and customize their browsing experience. Furthermore the number of running scripts is displayed as small number right at the extension icon near the address bar. ( video tutorial)

Tampermonkey's dashboard shows a clear overview of the scripts that are installed. You can see when they were updated the last time, if they do have a homepage, you can sort them and many more... ( video tutorial)
You can choose between three different configuration modes Novice, Beginner and Advanced. This allows power user to access and use advanced features and capabilities of Tampermonkey. ( video tutorial)
Automatic updates can help to keep you userscripts secure by automatically installing the latest security patches and updates. It can also help to maintain compatibility by automatically installing the latest updates for web page changes. You will also automatically benefit from latest features and enhancements added. You can setup how often the scripts will be checked for updates.

Only the paranoid survive! Blacklist all sites that never should be accessible by a userscript.
Tampermonkey offers a compatibility layer for older userscripts and userscripts that were written to run at Greasemonkey (<= 3.x) It tries to detect which options are necessary automatically.
You're using more than one browser, one at home and one at work? Simply enable Tampermonkey's sync feature to synchronize your scripts.
You need to develop or edit a script? No problem! Tampermonkey comes with a built-in editor.

Tampermonkey's editor is OK, but you want to use your own? The solution is to enable file access and to @require the local copy of your script.
You can also try out the Tampermonkey Editors extension to edit the script at vscode.dev
If you're not happy with Tampermonkey (this is unlikely to happen, but who knows 😉), then you can remove it at the browser's extension page.
