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.

    lol. I just turned your words back onto you, and that’s it. I don’t feel inferior at all, because I know who I’m chatting with now and why you don’t get it.

        Yeah, that’s definitely what’s going on here.

          We’ve been talking so much, i like talking to you.

          What do you do in your spare time?

              I enjoy learning languages, working on Spanish at the moment.

              Its a bit difficult for me because I studied Portuguese in the past, so i mix the two!

                That’s awesome! Are you learning for some travel or just to learn?

                  I’d say both?

                  Traveling is expensive, and could you belive I’ve never been to Portugal? Was supposed to go there in 2020,but then it just fizzled away…

                    Nice! I’ve never been there either but had a friend who lived there for a few years. Well, maybe you’ll get to visit soon and use your Portuguese.
