For a while now I’ve been quite happy running LibreWolf, with Bitwarden and some other privacy extensions. I’ve also switched over from Google to Kagi as a search engine; doesn’t keep me anonymous, but I do love not being the product for once.

Currently, I’m using Brave Browser :

  • Clear URLs
  • Dark Reader : for sites that don’t have a dark mode
  • Decentraleyes
  • Grammarly: I’m not a native English speaker. I like to write English with good grammar
  • HTTPS Everywhere
  • Imagus: for zooming pictures by just hovering
  • JSON Formatter
  • Local CDN
  • MultiLogin : a container like in the Firefox browser
  • Privacy Badger
  • Link Grabber : grabbed all the links on the page
  • Disable automatic tab discarding : I don’t like when the tab automatically refreshes when I didn’t open it for a while. This extension disables that
  • Old Reddit Redirect
  • Reddit Enhancement Suite
  • Return YouTube Dislike
  • Snowflake
  • SponsorBlock for Youtube

For search engines, I’m still using Google. Because I think the results it’s more and better (I guess). If not Google, I will use DuckDuckGo or Brave Search

Keep in mind LocalCDN will make your fingerprint more unique. HTTPS Everywhere is unmaintained and no longer needed… and you certainly don’t need Decentraleyes, thats a duplicate of LocalCDN and is also unmaintained.
