Even if they did that it's not impossible to find some exploits. No software is free of bugs which can be exploited, especially networked ones which are often finicky because they have many systems in place to pretend flawless execution. Just look at the TCP protocol, it's dropping packets left and right but users usually don't notice because they get spammed till one gets through

Same. I hate people like that, no way in hell I'd let myself become like them. They're absolute scum, fucking over other people for their own personal gain

Firesticks use a hardcoded backup DNS which can't be changed/disabled without root access. This renders DNS level blocking useless because they'll just use their backup DNS if your DNS resolves to 127.0.0.1/0.0.0.0

I get little micro-stutters every few seconds

Sounds like your Video file might be to blame. Does it always happen at the same time stamps? Maybe try watching it locally, does it happen there aswell?

This is the one I use: DELL S2721DGF

It's really good and pretty cheap for it's weight class. Only bad thing about it is it's HDR, its' really ugly. You can also look at other displays on the website I linked, rtings is very trustworthy

Happens to me sometimes when my display freezes for some reason, making it unresponsive to any wake up signal my pc may send. After turning my display off/on, login in blindly and starting Xorg it works again. White LED (indicating no display signal) on my motherbord stays on though, and it's really bright which forces me to restart anyway

I almost never wait for my pc to start up, thank god I can start it from anywhere with Wake on Lan

It doesn't happen on Systems using Prime Render offlading. Are you playing on a laptop?

Are you on a laptop using Prime Render offload? That fixes it, otherwise you probably just didn't notice. I'd recommend you compare it to gaming on X11

Gaming on Wayland with Nvidia is straight up not enjoyable for games running through XWayland due to this bug. This affects all games running with Proton/Wine, Steam, Discord, Firefox without MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 environment variable and many more

Weird, it's definitely not fixed yet (just tried it on up to date Arch). I don't think Nobara included a fix for it, what Desktop environment and GPU are you using?

Edit: Also happens on nvidia-open drivers and with RTX 40xx cards, which is mentioned here

So if it really doesn't happen on your system in XWayland apps these people would probably be very interested in your setup

Are you not playing Windows games via wine/proton?

This issue is what stops me from switching to Wayland on my GTX 1080. It basically makes games unplayable because the frames get displayed out of order

Are you sure? I can enable it on android just fine, I can't say if it works though

I assume some of the tools you've mentioned randomize the fingerprint instead of just hiding it?

According to Arkenfox user.js the Canvas Fingerprint randomization is caused by Firefoxs Resist Fingerprinting

Of course, if we resist fingerprinting too much, we make ourselves have a unique fingerprint again

Yeah, that's why Tor Browser has such strong privacy. You blend into the crowd because everyone's resistance is the same :)

I'd also rather stand out sometimes by resisting Fingerprinting to much than always being Fingerprinted accurately

My favorite artist is Acaz (german rapper). Can't tell you my favorite song of his because I love all of them

There's so many more tricks to identify you, check out https://browserleaks.com

It's honestly scary how easy it is to fingerprint you. I'm using LibreWolf (PC) and Firefox Beta with Resist Fingerprinting and Strict Tracking Prevention turned on (Android) with uBlock Origin in Medium Mode, JShelter in Strict Mode and LocalCDN. That prevents much of it but sadly not everything

Edit: Didn't click your link, sorry for recommending browserleaks "twice". My Canvas Fingerprint is 100% unique, although it changes each time I refresh (thanks to JShelter iirc). You can also simply disable WebGL (I think LibreWolf does this by default)

uBlock Origin, JShelter and LibreWolf disagree.

Additionally one could improve that further by using a VPN

If you wanna be extreme you could also just use the Tor Browser

This isn't Firefoxs fault though, is it? Just a bad Website putting arbitrary restrictions in place
