Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.

Some Rules

Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn't great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post
Don't promote proprietary software
Try to keep things on topic
If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience
Be nice :)

Editing PDFs

For everyone wanting to do that:

Don't. PDFs are made for printing and viewing. If possible, edit Text documents not PDFs.
For merging, removing, rotating, rearranging pages: PDFarranger, really stable and awesome tool even for 500+ pages
For adding Text or marking: Firefox, then Okular. Okular Flatpak has full portal support (does not need any filesystem permission)
For censoring stuff: GIMP. Just marking with black is not secure, you need to edit the image! If it is text, use Libreoffice Draw
Adding Signatures: Okular, Firefox (I think?)
For actually changing stuff in the PDF: Libreoffice Draw
