I suggest going for addons recommended by Firefox.
For blocking ads and other annoying content, I suggest uBlock Origin. It allows you to customize your experience, and can have the same or better effect than some other extensions. It is also not recommended to use multiple ad blockers, as they may conflict with each other.
For deleting cookies, I recommend not using an addon, but the settings of Firefox. Under “Cookies and Site Data” you can choose to delete cookies on close and manage exceptions for the cookies you want to keep.
For translation, Firefox Translations is fine.
Search by Image, I never used but it is recommended.
I usually avoid “redirect skippers”. As they can be as problematic as the initial problem itself. I cannot find FastForward in firefox and Skip Redirect is not recommended by firefox.
edit: spelling
Skip redirect is recommended by Arkenfox user.js wiki.
