Compare to cookies. I use two extensions. The first accepts all cookies to bypass cookie banners. The second deletes all non white listed cookies on closing the page. This works well for me since I seldom have more than 20 pages open, and I constantly close them.

Is there a way to avoid browser fingerprinting like this at all (with potential qol benefits) or am I extra screwed because I do things like this in addition to running Linux on a computer I built?

    For sure, if way more people used them the fingerprint would get smudged. That being said noscript would break the internet for the average user and degrade their browsing experience so I don’t see mass adoption of that awesome add-on. Ublock however is so simple it should be in everyones add-on list.

    Solid advice though!
