So as the title mentions, I’m wondering how much is too much?

I am currently using Brave with the setting to:

  • Aggressively block trackers & ads
  • Only connect with HTTPS
  • Block fingerprinting
  • Block cross-site cookies

In addition to that, I have installed the following extensions:

  • uBlock Origin
  • Ghostery
  • Decentraleyes
  • DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials

So my question is: Is this overkill? If so, what should/could be removed that may be redundant? I want as much coverage as possible, but not have things bloated.

      Eh, only 2 sorta well. I’ve tried learning a bit more, but without being immersed regularly I lose them relatively fast. I can still read a bit of some of them, and hear things in movies or tv shows that I understand.

      How about you? You have to have a couple you can at least get around with?

        And what languages would those be? Try to keep them fresh with YouTube videos of something that interests you (in the target language).

        I can speak ENG, SPA, POR, and ITA 😊 In the past I’ve studied CHI and JAP, but I remember so little and they are so difficult that I doubt I even have a A1 level 😐
