So as the title mentions, I’m wondering how much is too much?

I am currently using Brave with the setting to:

  • Aggressively block trackers & ads
  • Only connect with HTTPS
  • Block fingerprinting
  • Block cross-site cookies

In addition to that, I have installed the following extensions:

  • uBlock Origin
  • Ghostery
  • Decentraleyes
  • DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials

So my question is: Is this overkill? If so, what should/could be removed that may be redundant? I want as much coverage as possible, but not have things bloated.

    With brave you don’t need any of those addons.

    On Firefox just uBlock is fine.

        I don’t use it just because I’m not a fan of how chromium browsers work. They have had some controversies too around their crypto stuff and other things, but I’m not too familiar with them.
