For FireBug and true-full-screen- if you don't know why you need them,
chances are pretty good that you don't need them. You might try
disabling and seeing how Seamonkey behaves. I suspect you'll never know
the difference.
If you read the 2.53.1 release notes
https://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/seamonkey2.53.1/ , the
Extensions section not only notes that AdBlock Plus is problematic, but
there is still a version of uBlock Origin that is working (and
supported), and there is a link offered.
For AdBlock, the issue is that they've stopped supporting XUL
extensions, and at version 2.53.x Seamonkey does not support
WebExtension extensions.
I will note that I'm quite content with what I'm getting out of uBlock.

I'm wondering how many of my problems with lock up and excessive memory
usage is from AdBlock. The fact that the lists have not been updated in
years is also an issue.
I confess that the time to research and change and configure to uBlock
is part of why I am still at 2.49.5 but I am suspecting the issue goes
back to my version as well. I'm pretty sure when 2.53.2 comes out I'll
change to uBlock and update.
Ti.com stopped working with 2.49.5 this week and I am really hoping 2.53
fixes that.
