    Fingeprinting is a concern of mine. I use linus based OS so that is a major hit against me. Does firedox have any extensions that can spoof fingerprint, like OS or screen res, or browser? I have tried user agemt switchers, they dont seem to work well.

      Check privacytoolsio's guide

      privacy.resistFingerprinting deals with the screen size problem so don't maximize Firefox. Tor browser is better at handling this problem, if you maximize it'll create empty space to deal with it but it isn't really advised.

      I'd recommend using Tor browser if you want some peace of mind. With Tor you are advised not to install any extensions or do any tweaking. Tor makes linux user appear as Windows users for example.
