Hello. I recently discovered Tor and all the cool things you can do with it, like hosting nodes and stuff, but I really can’t make up my mind with one thing

I use both GNU Icecat and Tor Browser as my daily browsers. I often change between both, as Icecat has JS disabled by default.

My question is: due to fingerprinting issues on Tor when installing extensions (LibreJS, for example), is it a good idea to run Icecat on Tor?

I know that the most normal answer is “no”, because it’s always better to use the tool provided by the Tor team for those things, but, what I wanted to know is, what would be the worst option? Using Tor with a JS blocking add-on or the Icecat + Tor?

Thanks in advance ;)
