Title. How many extensions would be the average to not be profiled? Obviously not having any or having 23 will make you pretty easy to fingerprint, so how many is the average or safest?

In general, you should use as few as possible.
On FireFox browser, the best privacy extension is uBlock Origin. I wouldn’t use any other extension for ad blocking or privacy unless it is for something specific you need that uBlock Origin cannot do on its own. NoScript is another privacy extension that is sometimes recommended.
There may also be some benefit to using the extension for your password manager, as it may help you identify phishing links and prevent you from filling in your password on fake or scam sites. I strongly recommend Bitwarden as a password manager.
Installing extensions is unlikely to help you defend against fingerprinting. You should enable resist.fingerprint in the about:config on FireFox.
