That would be 5 (five):

  • HTTPS Everywhere: force https on sites
  • LastPass: password manager
  • Canvas Defender: block canvas fingerprinting
  • Malwarebytes Browser Extension: malware and general security blocking
  • AdGuard (PC app but let's count it as extension for the injection): tracking and ads

Bitwarden: password management

decantraleyes: Only seen it replacing google hosted libraries on few sites, useful if you dont have scriptsafe. Scriptsafe can take over and block google domains, wich makes decentraleyes useless

Malwarebytes: pup/pua/phishing protection

Privacy possum: leftovers from ublock

Scriptsafe: makes sites more pleasant to read with, works well together with ublock origin, can block domains and annoying scripts, fingerprint protection. Can work as user-agent ( i think it wont work tho)

Ublock origin : blocking ads/trackers

1: uMatrix = shows you all remote connections, whitelist/blacklist all kinds of requests from domains to cookies, CSS, images, plugins, scripts, XHR, frames and others. No reliance of curated blacklists. You can blacklist by default globally and whitelist when needed.

2: Smart HTTPS = no reliance on lists. Assumes every website supports HTTPS. If an error occurs it reverts the website back to HTTP.

3: Claire = the icon shows up orange when connecting to a site that uses Cloudflare. All it does really.
