You could already do this with Mullvad. Use an extension such as Sideberry which allows different proxies for different containers. Then use Mullvad's socks5 set of endpoints.

It sometimes manifests as audio stuttering (the kind which sounds like unstable sample rate) which suggests a lot of context switching, perhaps a scheduler problem. Had this problem intermittently and seemingly at random for many years. Som

Linux and Android have that too. Called Zram. When using zstd a compression factor of 3.5 on swap memory is common.

How often does a single vote decide an election? Never? Therefore your optimal move is not to waste your time voting - you gain nothing. If everyone thought that way it would be bad perhaps? But they don't so it doesn't matter to

The Mighty App will either die or become a privacy nightmare. Because a browser can run arbitrary compute it will be abused, and if they don't want to die they will have to spy on what their users are doing to find abuse.

The vast majority of the code you write is glue code, you can be as inefficient when writing it as you want and it doesn't matter. Optimize only what the profiler tells you your cpu is spending real time in.
