    • Games, though it’s more of a game company issue. I like Apex Legends.

    • Microsoft Office stuff. Every now and then I need to make a presentation, and LibreOffice Impress to Microsoft PowerPoint isn’t that good. I resort to Google Slides for now.

    • Cursor trails. I tried making it myself until I stumbled on the concept of hardware cursor. I still want to do it, but man, putting an image where your pointer is at is harder than I thought. So much more if you’re on Wayland apparently.

    • (Lack of) general ecosystem fragmentation. I still don’t understand why I can’t paste image that is clearly present in both xclip and wl-paste over Remmina. It does work if I open LibreOffice Draw, paste it there, then copy it back, and paste it in Remmina. Emacs on Xorg is blurry and requires xwayland-satellite but smooth, and Emacs GTK is sharp but stuttery.








  • Their website (https://coveryourtracks.eff.org/learn) do mention the concern you have; Blocking trackers means you are a user with a very specific privacy settings. I suppose it would be like going around with a full face mask; You are technically private, but you are uniquely identifiable unless someone else does that. I also get “Uniquely Identifiable” on my personalised browser, but nothing like it when I try it out on newly installed Mullvad browser with no changes.

    Not that I know much about how Tor traffic is identified, but Tor bridges seems like a potential solution? I would dig into that a bit more.
