Your may be talking about more strict immigration policies but the subject here is "societal collapse" and population reduction and I was pointing out a possibility.
That is valid, but I don't know if you can still talk of "society" about a very reduced population, it depends on the reduction factor and stops at reproduction rate zero.
A probable outcome would be that another society takes over the one disappearing.
I'm all good about the single binary for installation and I understand the concept better now for achieving the same level of documentation in any project.

You're litterally using a personal computer with at least personal data on it, passwords in a password manager, passwords in your browsers, website account sessions (!) all on your drives and folders. Everything accessible by ALL programs you execute.
The more info Javascript has and therefore the server, the more attack vectors open up to just inject code into your browser and leverage code execution on host (recent CVE on firefox and Chrome !).
Or into your slack electron's chrome. Or any spyware app.
All your keystrokes accessible also !
Consider using a virtual machine or container to isolate the apps from your data so that they can't access it. If needed, mount a folder between host and guest for purpose-only sharing.
Some services even refuse to serve if one changes the UA, which is only one tracking capability. Though a blank or custom UA is worse, everyone should spoof the one in the onion browser.
User agent switch is currently "not available" on android Firefox.
