Haha, you use the inferior browser even though it was superior to Chrome when you started using it (assuming you switched from Chrome)/j

That's one method, but I prefer to have as little extensions as possible. Since I used to use a lot of extensions for youtube once and it ate up my RAM. Also I hear that extensions can be used to track you more easily if you're not careful.I think you mean it makes your browser more identifiable, you're probably right on that. But if you're that concerned, you should use TOR instead, as Librewolf will never be 100% private in this regards. RAM is not an issue for me as I have 32GB of it, but I see your point. Thanks for giving an alternative.
tor is a meme and also a honeypot probably

eh i think the truth is more complicated to simply being or not being a honeypot. since the govt cut funding for it i think. i'd imagine they'd have a few nodes running to spy on people. but is that enough to say the ENTIRE project is a honeypot, given its decentralized nature? probably not
besides i'm more of an i2p girlie myself anyway

I use standard firefox with Geckium and a nature theme, with Ublock Origin, Privacy Badger, and a copious amount of youtube extensions (not all extensions are shown).

Here's the link to Geckium. You can install it on any OS that has Firefox, including MacOS.

just be sure to read the installation instructions for MacOS carefully because it's a bit unusual but simple
