I definitely like the idea of heads, particularly over tails. But my setup actually uses both the Tor network and the clear net; most downloads and browsing are over Tor using privoxy, except when I really want something and it is denied just because I am using the Tor network. Palemoon normally transits using socks5 proxy (Tor), with some exceptions. Firefox is set to go direct. Thunderbird also used the proxy. Most times when websites block me for using Tor or even uBlock Origin and uMatrix to stop tracking and lessen advertising rubbish, then the content is often available elsewhere -- if they want to lock me out, then I'll find alternatives. Just like I use Devuan over Debian as my alternative to avoid the cancer of systemd. I'm concerned that heads is too far behind in terms of security, the last release was some time ago now, I have been keeping an occasional eye on it. The last release being 2018-03-26 (6 months ago). Tails, which I hope to stop using one day has had a number of releases in that time frame. Don't get me wrong, I do want heads to win over tails here for sure. In any case, tails and one day heads instead will have their place for my usage, but I need more than either of this for everyday tasks. > is a Devuan derivative based on Beowulf (current testing) hardened > for security, routing all traffic through tor and removing all > non-free firmware (100% free).

All of which is why I will definitely be preferring heads over tails, but down the track.
