Between uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger, ClearURLs, Decentraleyes, and Privacy Possum, I’m having a hard time deciding which ones I actually need and which ones I don’t. Do they actually do different things, or are they largely the same?

    I suppose that I can be leaving some other (like disabling webgl), but in principle yes. The bad thing is that this setting can be annoying, it does things like change the time zone, force the light theme, always start in window, among many others.

      it’s strange for them to specifically choose the light prefers-color-scheme instead of ignoring it completely. So if a website has a dark default interface with an optional prefers-color-scheme:light, it will use the light interface ignoring the default.

      Seems counterintuitive
