Pale Moon can be setup and configured so you don't give out any identifying information. Unlike Brave. Pale Moon also does fingerprint randomizations, instead of fingerprint uniformity, but PM does it with so much more stuff than Brave.
The more chromium forks there are, the greater hold google has on the internet, and fingerprint uniformity only works by restricting usage of the browser. No customizations, no addons, no nothing. It's the wrong way to tackle anti-fingerprinting.
Pale Moon didn't score as well as a new Brave profile, with Pale Moon having a non-randomized canvas, GL, number of cores, and audio fingerprint whereas in Brave these are all randomized. Pale Moon screen size approximates the actual screen size whereas in Brave reported screen size is not similar to actual screen size.
But it doesn't even matter that Brave is more private by default. They all give out so much info that if you want to have multiple personas it's best to use different browsers for each; use Pale Moon and Brave.
You show that you don't really know what you're talking about sadly. coveryourtracks doesn't work on Pale Moon (Bad Request
Request Line is too large (8192 > 4094), which is why I left that one out in my post here about fingerprint tests..
"canvas.poisondata (true/false, v25.6+): Controls whether to mitigate browser fingerprinting through canvas rendering specifics.
This preference, when true, will poison data read from canvas areas with humanly-imperceptible variations in color and lightness.
Defaults to false; accurate reading of data is generally preferred, and poisoning severely impacts performance of reading data from canvas." -from 2013
They also randomize the addon order, and other things.
Screen-size spoofing and such can easily be circumvented, since most code "resisting" such fingerprints don't do enough (https://archive.is/kN0D5).
I do agree about compartmentalization, but one should use the best privacy and customizable browser as a main one, and use LibreWolf for the few sites that insists on implementing the latest google experimental "standards", and those "standards" only. Brave is the least worst google chromium browser, but it's still a google chromium browser..
That's even more dumb to have a switch for it and turn it off by default. Is there another switch to turn off audio fingerprinting and other fingerprints? /facepalm
I don't see any "bad request" error either on the site or in the dev tools. Maybe you have some extension or setting that's causing that, which of course is a signal to differentiate you from default pale moons.
Are you perhaps forgetting what I said here: https://communities.win/p/16b5un7XTE/x/c/4TsbFCc9qpq ? and of course there are more switches you can turn off or on in About:Config. It's your browser your way. It's literally the tagline. Unlike lying browser who claim to be about privacy though is anything but. Especially when they try to foist fingerprint uniformity/anonymity and out-of-the-box "solutions".
Also yes, of course I'm using privacy addons. Only a fool doesn't. Out-of-the-box is a trap for the lazy. It doesn't teach you what's what, nor how to protect yourself, Like you've just shown. You also missed how I said that the addon order is randomized, meaning that my addons do not identify me..

You're always giving out identifying information. What matters most is how you are using a browser, and you can check with something like:
