Look for an extension that changes your user agent. For instance, if you're using Firefox, it can tell fool the server you're talking to into believing that you're actually on an iPhone running Safari. I can't vouch for any that you should trust so you might want to run any that you find past more knowledgeable people before you trust it. Rabbit hole 👉 https://www.privacyguides.org/

For privacy-related advice, you might want to review our FAQ and/or visit www.privacyguides.org. You might also want to try using Reddit’s search function to see if there were posts on topics similar to yours.

I highly recommend using https://www.privacyguides.org and actually avoiding PrivacyTools all together. PrivacyGuides is essentially the successor the PrivacyTools, with the entire former team behind PrivacyTools founding and running PrivacyGuides. You can read about the history and founding of PrivacyGuides here if you're interested.

Good place: www.privacyguides.org and r/privacyguides.

We've had a Discourse forum for a while, and actually replaced all links to Reddit with links to Discourse a few months ago.

NextCloud: I intend to use Nextcloud as a Google Drive alternative anyway, and it seems to retain the photo and video structure of my phone gallery. However, I've read conflicting information about its end-to-end encryption, with sources like privacyguides.org stating that its E2EE app isn't production quality and may lead to data loss.

Keep in mind that neither of those lists are default lists and neither are maintained by the uBlock Origin team. Issues with those lists should be reported to their maintainers: - AdGuard URL Tracking Protection: https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdguardFilters/issues - Actually Legitimate URL Shortener Tool: https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/discussions/163

Also, DDG Privacy Essentials, Privacy Badger and SmartHTTPS are redundant, you can remove them. (it's a similar story with ClearURLs if you add the Legitimate URL Shortener list to uBlock Origin)

ClearURLs for uBO (deletes tracking parameters on links and this solves the problem of Google, Amazon links being too long) Actually Legitimate URL Shortener Tool (same) I don't care about cookies (deletes the accept cookies screens and makes it look like you didn't answer the question, and some GDPR-compliant websites may interpret this as "So he/she doesn't want any cookies") If you want to explore more uBO filters you can check DandelionSprout's Github Repository

Also, FYI, ClearURLs for uBo is known to break some websites and even interferes with other similar lists (i.e. Legit URL, AdGuard URL Tracking Protection). If you still want to use this, then please report issues/ask questions at https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/discussions/163

Fixed in https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/commit/48d9f519661d996e1f4d09d33cfced391245c5f4. In the future, please report issues with Legit URL at https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/discussions/163 because: - this isn't an issue with uBo or it's filterlists - it was only luck that I saw this, and Imre (the maintainer) doesn't check Reddit. If you report it there, both of us get notified

It's included in some of uBO's filters, but if you want to add more, the main additional filter people are recommending adding is DandelionSprout's LegitimateURLShortener, which makes heavy use of removeparam. DandelionSprout also ported ClearURLs's rules to a uBO filter, although that one is more experimental.

It's not practical to mess with rules manually, uBO comes with many filter lists included that are not enabled by default, enable them if you want to; These lists are more than enough for most users, only add third-party lists if you need them (This is the only one I recommend).

Ok. If you have any problems, feel free to report them at https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/discussions/163 and DandelionSprout and me will try to help.

if it is gateway redirected (e.g. wait 5 sec. then click a button to destination) then use https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/blob/master/LegitimateURLShortener.txt on ublock origin

It's fixed in Actually Legitimate URL Shortener list: https://github.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/commit/7e6fc4c
