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?

This is absolutely false. In a standard browser environment you are going to require a multitude of plugins to achieve various tasks. In fact; having uBo installed is in and of itself fingerprintable to the nth degree. An advanced fingerprinting suite can glean data from your browser based on which uBo lists you subscribe to.
With the sole exception being purpose-hardened browsers like Mullvad’s or Tor Browser; there is no reason to skip having plugins. You already fingerprinted yourself by running that one plugin.
Fingerprint is not a real world concern lol. Actual usage in the real world is non existent, and aiming for fingerprint resistance will nerf your browsing experience to oblivion. Assuming you’re new to privacy, this is absolutely not sustainable, and you will definitely get burnt out trying to worry about obscure attack surfaces like this. uBlock Origin kills like 99% of real world tracking and threats. Your IP is what they need and actually look for almost every time, and trying to avoid that with a VPN/Tor will frequently get you hit with captchas or sites just blacklisting your IP range.
