But just because something existed before the Internet doesn't mean it doesn't still exist now. You say you're using pre-90s expectations, but it's a modern object still - so why would that help at all?

Saw the other comment about Linux and did some searching. Found it on Wikipedia; appears to be a window system for Linux or a protocol that enables a window system for Linux? Don't know enough about this stuff, but here's the link I found: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wayland_(protocol)

It should be noted that canvas is only one method of fingerprinting, so just randomizing that will not be enough to prevent fingerprinting.

Ah, the arrogance of not knowing what you don't know. Except people are telling you that you are lacking knowledge of mergers, and you're still demanding that you're right. So now it's willful ignorance.

...they're talking about that ToxicAvenger person in this thread that you're replying to.

Ohhhh I see. Yeah, I think Sync uses Chrome too. Sync has an option to always open links in external web browser, so that's how I got around that.

Dunno if this is what you mean, but you can definitely set another browser as default. Any context menus will change too: "Open with Firefox", or w/e you're using.

Ah ok, gotcha. Who knows, I might agree once I actually pick the game up. I just don't want a map filled with what feels to me like filler.

I just started this too! Agreed on all fronts. It's gorgeous, the combat is refined and a combination of a lot of great old-school JRPG mechanics, I like all the winks and tongue-in-cheek mentions of classic tropes. I was just really hoping the story wasn't going where I thought it was going. But now that I have gotten a certain bit in, it feels like it's going exactly where I think it's going. But it's such a self-aware game that I hope I'm wrong. Because you're right, the characters are actually likeable and do at times subvert tropes, blatantly even, like they know we expected them to behave a certain way. Fingers crossed.

That's really great to hear. I heard an estimate of the game length elsewhere too. I'm really glad to hear that overall it's generally a tighter experience rather than including a bunch of collectathons.
