I went on amiunique.com, and it says that I’m unique.

Lowest scores: list of fonts JS (0.01%), canvas (0.00%), media devices (0.00%), user agent (0.11%), and audio data (0.80%)

I use Linux Mint Debian edition, Librewolf browser, and Mullvad VPN. How do I become less unique?

    Less unique is equal to what majority of other’s do.

    So

    • Windows
    • Chrome (stock settings, maybe some addons like grammarly)
    • No VPN

      I know you’re saying to use widely-used extensions, but for privacy-conscious users I wouldn’t suggest grammarly

        well. as another said, one is pretty unique the moment they seek online privacy. this is the sad reality of it. You want to blend in, less unique? Ditch privacy is a way to go. Is this a shit choice, of course it is. The otherway around is embrace the uniquess on every refresh of the page. However, I still have a hard time to beat some very sophisticated fingerprinting engines. Or you can disable Javascript and you won’t be fingerprint-able at all along a VPN.

          Sure I after with that first point. But actively feeding all of your typed text to a corporate owned server isn’t the only way to so that.
