As I know you do enjoy desktop minimalism, I highly recommend trying
out tinfoil-dmenu. Its totally suckless ;^)

Tinfoil does not replicate the torbrowser use-case, at all.

Torbrowser does an excellent job in tunneling all traffic tor, beyond
the capacity of normal browsers.

I do plan to support wrapping torbrowser too in tinfoil.

while I generally agree, I'm not really keen to entertain "epic
thinking" on most online avenues and I'm generally adverse in
declamating universal statements.

What makes me most happy lately is coding and good humor.

I hope you enjoy tinfoil
