Title says it all. Do you use custom filter lists in uBO? If yes: Which ones?

Here are the ones I use:

Also great website to find many more filter lists: filterlists.com

To me it looks more like this website tries to guess what filter lists I’m using. In my case it for example detects “EasyList Portuguese”, “Latvian List” and some others that I definitely don’t use. Also there are some lists it doesn’t detect. It definitely makes it easier to fingerprint me but it can’t tell exactly all the lists I use.

But it also detects other addons like Dark Reader. And since pretty much everyone has their own set of addons in their browser they’re easy to fingerprint anyway. One probably should just use uBO with standard filters as the only addon and that’s it. But I can’t live without Dark Reader and some other addons that I use. That sucks but it is what it is. At this point adding additional filter lists probably won’t make it worse.
