Here are some extra tips for increased privacy:

  • Don´t use your browser in fullscreen
  • Download Chameleon for Firefox, it periodically changes the browser and OS it pretends to be

OR: Use Chameleon and set yourself to the most common combo. Get lost in the noise.

What's the issue with full screen?

[–] Twongo@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

randomlzing your window size shows trackers different resolutions.

depending on which OS you use it won't show 1920x1080, as taskbars and other extras take off a few pixels.

example: if your browser is fullscreen and only shows a resolution of 1920x1075 it could most likely mean you use macos (randomly chosen)

Librewolf has letterboxing which locks your website's intrinsic size to specific resolutions (like 1600x1000) to combat this
