So two things: basically install user.js and forget it (except changing minor settings you want).

What about recommended extesnsions. It just says minimize extensions (which is a good policy), but which extensions are recommended to use with it.

Are there certain privacy extensions that are redundant because of it?

I understand I may be asking things outside of your purview, but I am curious how does this work.

Interesting enough, if I visit a fingerprinting site such as kuber.studio/cookie, it still recognizes me as a visitor, even with user.js.

    Yeah, I'm not a privacy expert. And I didn't ever think of user.js as privacy protection personally. I use it to turn off AI and other things that annoy me. Privacy-wise I use OBO and few others. The arkenfox settings I used as a basis but I removed anything that wasn't ai related or that I didn't understand.

    I think the main protection I'm looking for at the moment is fingerprinting protection. ON their site they do claim that, but there isn't much info (at least that I can understand about that).
