I only have Ublock Origin as a browser extension, and I need some advice on how to prepare myself for the insufferableness that lies ahead. I'm mainly making an account to post memes related to my favorite works of fiction.

I hope it's for doing agitprop.

Like I said, it will mainly be used for entertainment, video games, and meme subreddits. Also, I just do not have the energy or mental patience to argue with liberals on the internet.

I should have mentioned that I already have Ublock, my bad.

I don't use it myself, but some good extensions I'd recommend for any bourgeois website with trackers, CDN bloat, and fingerprinting elements of all kinds. Besides uBlock Origin which you mentioned, are ones called LocalCDN and ClearURLs. Both are also FLOSS. Similar ones probably exist but these are just the ones I've been using.

LocalCDN substitutes CDN-derived page elements with local elements on your PC by injecting them through emulating a sort of CDN where ever possible, bypassing some remote content. ClearURLs clears tracking garbage through web navigation basically.

~~Also, hopefully you dont use Chrome lol. That pile of spyware imperialist Silicon Valley crap needs to be boycotted, just like Silicon Valley needs to be bombed to pieces~~

Hope it helps!

Don't worry, I use Firefox for my browser because it's the one I've been using the longest.

Reddit Enhancement Suite

Also Privacy Budger for additional tracking prevention.

Privacy Badger is redundant with uBlock Origin

Sometimes uBlock Origin doesn't block all ad trackers, particularly if they are new and not on its lists yet. Privacy Badger is a good back-up to have running alongside it.
