I've been using the following addon to block this fingerprinting for a while now: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/canvasblocker...

No canvas is a full blown canvas blocking addon. addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/no-canvas-fingerprinting/

It is developed by multiloginapp.com a privacy first browser suite.

Looks like the chrome equivalent is: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/canvas-defender/ob...

If you use Chrome than you don't care about privacy at all so suggesting privacy extensions for chrome is ludicrous.

This isn't true at all. If you know how to use Chrome right (with right flags / startup options [1]) it is way more private browser then FF and more advanced. All it takes is some reading and some patience (but you get useful knowledge in return).

Security and privacy is just a marketing gig for Firefox in my personal opinion. Not truly reflecting the reality.

Additionally you can use ungoogled-chromium to take it to the next level.
