How effective is it for online privacy? I have been using it for some time and it tends to break some sites like banking websites and twitch. I haven't messed around a lot with the config except allowing DRM and setting up a start page.

I am wondering if using arkenfox/user.js is making my browsing fingerprint unique and whether there are better alternatives for privacy focused browsers.

In the ArkenFox zip there's a updater.bat (Windows) or updater.sh (Linux) script which will pull the latest user.js. I do run this periodically as FF settings will for sure evolve over time with new versions, absolutely.

You could probably schedule these with a task scheduler/cron if you wanted.
