Yes, it is enough: https://panopticlick.eff.org/

PS: my result

Your browser fingerprint appears to be unique among the 1,852,797 tested in the past 45 days.

Currently, we estimate that your browser has a fingerprint that conveys at least 20.82 bits of identifying information.

That is an interesting site. It made me think that the best way to avoid this tracking is to have the most common OS with the most common Browser and all default settings.

I am a linux and firefox user in Brazil. I am probably very easy to track combining this information with my geolocation and ISP.

I'm pretty sure Panopticlick gathers a lot more information than Vivaldi is claiming to here.

Just putting this out there but... does any browser pass the fingerprinting test?

Quick look with Firefox, Brave, Safari and all has similar results for me.

I did read once that Tor should pass, but never had a chance to try
