My fonts alone makes me pretty unique it seems (<0.01%). 180 or so fonts that the browser is happy to share with the world. Does seem a little unnecessary.

- Jonnax 7y agoI can't remember which but either Firefox or Chrome only send a standard list of fonts.
- hmexx 7y agoDoesn't seem to be the case. I tried both browsers and got the same result, i.e. 180+ fonts sent (<0.01% match)
- systoll 7y agoSafari does that. Firefox has an about:config preference that would let you set up a font whitelist yourself, but it doesn’t have a standard set.
- cpeterso 7y agoFirefox's preference is "font.system.whitelist". You can specify a list of which fonts are exposed to web content (such as the default set shipped with your OS). The preference is used by the Tor browser. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1121643 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1121643 Does Safari actually do something similar? On my Mac, amiunique.org reports 344 fonts in Safari, 331 in Firefox (not using "font.system.whitelist"), and 309 in Chrome.
- smoyer 7y agoMy list of fonts includes OpenDyslexic and OpenDyslexicMono and puts me at < 0.01% as well.
