So instead of using only tor when using tor browser, I can use tor while using firefox, the command line, etc.
I use Manjaro Cinnamon.
I know I’ll have to be careful with emails and some other applications that aren’t encrypted.

What archtorify does is it sets up iptables and a systemd service so that everything goes by default through tor. Installation shown in wiki.
What would happen if I use tor browser while using archtorify? I find it helpful to be able to change the tor circuit with a button. I wish there was something like that in firefox when using torify.
I think I’ll modify archtorify to change the circuit every so often. Perhaps I can check for internet speed and choose different circuits until it’s above a given speed.
There’s no point of using tor browser while using archtorify. I haven’t tried such a thing. Tor Browser additionally protects against fingerprinting which archtorify does not. You’ll be able to do that by restarting archtorify using “archtorify -r”.
Absolutely, that’s the advantage of free software! :) You can just have a script which checks if archtorify service is running and executes “archtorify -r” if it is on every x minutes (according to how you want).
