For tracking analysing the data is required. Even if user doesn’t do anything sophisticated, just upgrading the browser will change their fingerprint; services that track users need to be prepared for that. But consider that 34 bits is enough to uniquely identify every person on the planet. If you’re able to collect say 50 bits of information about a request, even if some information changes, you can cluster the requests and attribute to the same user.

Yes, that’s why I wrote ‘in this case’. Those two bits of information which are highly correlated with user’s behaviour on a website don’t meaningfully impact the privacy. And regarding Discord, having age attestation on OS level has a chance to reduce number of websites which ask for ID thus improving overall privacy.
You’re already uniquely identified: https://amiunique.org/. Privacy is a non-issue in this case.
My first recommendation is to just use graphical environment. My second is to try
fbterm.
Terminal and console are two different things. Console is what you get if your computer boots up in text mode. Terminal is what you start inside graphical environment (X or Wayland). Which one are you having issues with? What does
echo $TERMoutput? If it’s the former, how are you watching videos exactly? O_o If it’s the latter,setfontwon’t do anything; you need to look at configuration of your terminal emulator or try a different one.


Define ‘sold’ because everyone has its own understanding of what that term means. What are you worried about?
