I use uBlock Origin and make some changes to the default settings. Have seen recommend configs, but haven't gotten to implement them yet.

What do you do to make Firefox even more privacy respecting and secure?

Both LocalCDN and any anti ad-block scripts are useless nowadays. uBO by itself does quite a bit of defusing itself as long as no other extensions conflict with it (so, make sure it's the only ad blocker you have) (also enable the built-in annoyance filters. They deal with anti-adblocks as well)

Noscript can also be replaced with uBO's dynamic filters/advanced mode. Read it's wiki if you want to learn how

Is localdns backed in Firefox or ublock now?
