    ClearURLs is not really needed anymore since you can enable AdGuard URL Tracking Protection and import Actually Legitimate URL Shortener Tool to uBlock Origin.

    I noticed that using the built in ublock origin lists did not shorten every URL. I had to also use clearURLs. Is this fixed by adding the legitimate url shortener list? Does that capture everything?

      I don’t think that it captures everything, but according to the Arkenfox project, any additional benefit ClearURLs could have compared to this setup is minimal, and thus, it probably isn’t worth to install another extension.

        Got it. Yea I’ve looked at the arkenfox project before. In my opinion it seems like overkill for that extra like 2% of privacy lol. I feel like a reasonably hardened Firefox with ublock origin will get you 98% of the way there. And anything else is just trying to get that last little bit of privacy.
