How anonymous is Monero really?

As the title suggests, how much or little does Monero help protecting my privacy?

Monero (XMR) is secure, private, and untraceable due to Stealth Addresses, Ring Signatures, and RingCT technologies. However, it is impossible to know for sure 100% how anonymous Monero users are. It is important to make sure that your operating system is a clean install and free of malware before using Monero.

It's by far the most secure cryptocurrency, and to stay true to "Satoshis vision" I do believe that Monero is doing a better job with it's ASIC resistance in choice of mining algorithm as well as dynamic block size, which both allows faster and cheaper transactions, while also preventing spam.
