I really enjoy Firefox on Android as I can install a bunch of extensions and I find those extensions game changer, especially on the mobile.

One of my favorites are

  • Libredirect - literally one of my favorite ones. Redirects popular sites to privacy focused frontends, like YouTube to Invidious, etc.
  • uBlock Origin - I guess everyone knows this one
  • Privacy Badger - blocks trackers
  • Ghostery - blocks trackers, ads, scripts, etc.

What extensions do you guys use?

If you try with a Tor browser you'll get a unique ID everytime.

Feel free to try this one instead: https://www.amiunique.org/fingerprint

Or whatever website you prefer, really. Fingerprinting is not solved by a single extension or checkbox. It's really hard.
