Falkon Browser Privacy Hardening - eviltoast

I’ve been wanting to use the Falkon browser as my daily driver because I like the integration with the Plasma desktop and it works quite well for most things, but I’ve been hesitant to do so because there are so few extensions and the only privacy-focused one is the AdBlock. I’ve tried using GreaseMonkey scripts, but half of the few privacy-focused scripts I’ve found just don’t work and I’m not good enough with scripting to really figure out why. I’ve set what I could in the Preferences menu for privacy, but I’m wondering if there is any way to access other settings to do things like disable WebGL and/or otherwise block trackers and prevent fingerprinting? If I can set it up to be reasonably close to Brave or LibreWolf privacy-wise, I’d be happy to use it more.

        I’m no programmer, but are those updates real ones (improving security, functions, etc.) or is it more like keeping up with modernised libraries throughout the system? I believe this is the case at least with Konqueror.
