Sure, you can get fingerprinted if you have a unique window size, but do you really want to disable that at the cost of disabling all responsive websites?

I am using Librewolf and Mullvad Browser as daily drivers, both of which pass the fingerprinting resistance tests, and the only problem I have experienced was with Twitch and that was solved by changing the user agent.

That's not what I mean by responsive. Look at the first image in the article, and now resize the window. By disabling media queries, that probably doesn't happen anymore.

That image is responsive on both my browsers. I used the Twitch example only to make the point that that was the only problem I'd experienced, not that it was necessarily related to responsiveness.

Saying that "that image is responsive" confuses me. Do you mean the resized website behaves like the image?
