Its cool, but I try to keep my plugins to a minimum. Its all too easy to do shady things with plugins, as we saw with the popular plugin stylish.

FYI, here's a fork that isn't evil: https://add0n.com/stylus.html
(so my SL theme is still usable)

Also... If you're using Firefox, you aren't gonna lose much privacy-wise (you're already screwed) by using the addon mentioned in OP, it's made by Mozilla

I guess you use Palemoon, Icecat, or Ungoogled Chrome.
I like Palemoon and Icecat but can't get around using Chrome, I just don't like the feel of it.

No I hate all browsers so I gave up and stayed with Firefox (which I've used since I was like 4, with a Chrome break in the middle)

I'm considering switching to Brave Browser though, if they get extension support

As you're definitely aware, the more add-ons you have, the better the chance of being tracked. A starting point (and at the bare minimum) with FF, Is to disable It's built-In geolocation feature via geo.enabled.

I've Installed this add-on and messing around with It's colors.
Not sure If I'll keep It, though.

Forgot about addon fingerprinting, I was thinking about potential malicious activity by the addons.
Good point
