Between uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger, ClearURLs, Decentraleyes, and Privacy Possum, I'm having a hard time deciding which ones I actually need and which ones I don't. Do they actually do different things, or are they largely the same?

I use noscript and whitelist javascript URLs per-origin, this coupled with uBlock means even the trackers uBO doesn't block usually don't work
