Good to hear. It depends how deep you dive into the configuration, it can get very frustrating setting some things up. If you stick to what's popular, it should be easy.

This is my pet peeve. This is one application that should be paid for. It hugely lacks features. Non-destructive editing with gradients, adjustments, masks. Better selection tools, CMYK would be nice. But that's not the worst part, it doesn't have the entirety of Adobe Illustrator, which you can work between. Affinity has the Designer equivalent, which I use a lot.
I can assure you they're doing more than that. If you see the recapture or cloudflare verification box, you have been cross-site fingerprinted. So if you turn a VPN on and you're using the same OS and browser, they know who you are.
I don't think you have used Affinity of Photoshop much.
Yoooo, how you finding it? Freeing?
If they go public I'm changing distros
The cutting edge/novel techniques was what I was looking for, this is really cool. I'll look into it more.
Why don't we have an open source anti-cheat protocol that is a demon-level service. Everyone hates kernel anti-cheat, but only because they're close source, so why don't we have one that's open source. Seems like a simple solution.
I still use VirtualBox with Windows 10 to launch all the Affinity products because GIMP is so bad. And for browser fingerprint protection, e.g. chrome (ungoogled) on windows, because no browser fakes it. Not mullvad, Tor or Brave.
Yeah, it's much harder to completely hide the fact you're using encryption.
Oof 😅 0.59 nanoseconds. I dang messed up. This would be a good project for students to identify the weaknesses. Like the Theprimeagen says the problem with the tutorials is they're neatly packaged, refined end products and you miss out on all the learning and debugging. You sound like you know what you're talking about and the 1-byte block size is a huge mistake. I think I'll do some more research into the different algorithms. Thanks for having a look, and weighing in.

V2 of my Anonymous, Private, Encrypted text/URL tool, with crazy strong encryption.
(programming.dev)
~Update~
You can now encrypt plain text, so anything you want. With this, you can send sensitive information over insecure channels or share publicly with real plausible deniability. (below 2000 characters works without issue)
~Changes~
I rebuilt the system with a different encryption design, and address many of the flaws pointed out in V1.
I really wanted any password to always decrypt so you never know if you are right. I found the XOR algorithm that does this, but there is an entropy problem, where an incorrect password will almost always output non-common characters, I attempted to solve this at its core by diving into the math and some research papers but got nowhere, as it seemed to be almost impossible.
I tried finding an algorithm that would give me perfect plausible deniability, so if you shared a link X with a password you could use a different password and get Y, saying you never intended to share X. It doesn't exist 😢 I came up with a workaround by adding decoys which are mutable XOR ciphers joined, it allows you to set what other data is included, so you can tailor your alibi.
Here is the demo link. There are three memes you can find
Password: test1, test2, test3
~Safety~
It should be safe to share data encrypted with this method, I did some basic brute force tests and did not find any shortcuts, I have a rough estimate of a billion years on a server farm for a 12digit password.
~Considerations~

"There’s 2 secrets here: the link and the password. And to share it with someone you need to share 2 secrets: the locked link and the password."
A strong password is almost impossible to crack, but you can use a popular text link tool like pastebin with expiry to mask the encrypted data. As for eliminating the password, I have considered using the site as the 'shared secret' so you share just the cipher, and if you know the URL you can paste it in, and it would be encrypted/decrypted with a derived key the site stored.
