FYI: Yeah, Librewolf is safe, unless the user disables resit fingerprint, which is enabled by default

It doesn’t matter to be unique. The trick is to be different each time you start the browser or visit a site. This way you avoid profiling as the fingerprints don’t match. A unique fingerprint, shared by lots people and therefore indistinguishable, would be the case with the TOR browser.

@Lanthanus @grimer @kixik you can also do that by using various browsers on multiple devices. this technically may decrease security, but by splitting your activities and accounts the fingerprints would only be connectable by IP and eventually OS, no?
