How many add-ons do I really need to block trackers? (lemmy.ml)

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?

uBlock origin and CanvasBlocker/JShelter are probably enough. There's also uMatrix, which gives you more granular control over what to block or allow.
