Is uBlock Origin already doing what DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials is anyway?

Or, do uBlock Origin + DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials compliment each other well ?

Cheers !!

uBO covers DDG’s functionality as far as I’m aware, there’s no point having both.

I’d recommend keeping your extensions list to a minimum, since every added one makes you more fingerprintable and increases your attack surface. If there aren’t any extensions you need for functionality (password manager, bookmark manager, etc), just uBO should be good enough.

Did you know that dark mode whether through an extension or in site setting makes you more fingerprintable
