✨ NAME ✨

obfuscate β€” bestie, it censors images πŸ’… (yes this is the man(1) page for it, welcome to the group chat 🫢)


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

obfuscate

That's it. That's the whole vibe. No flags, no drama, just obfuscate and go πŸ¦‹


πŸŽ€ DESCRIPTION πŸŽ€

okay so obfuscate lets you censor images πŸ’– As of right now, only images are supported β€” not PDFs, so don't come for it about PDFs, it's not that girl yet πŸ™ˆ

To do the censoring, you've got two tools in your little toolkit:

  • blur β€” this one just drops a blurred transparent overlay on top of whatever area you picked. lowkey important: it should not be used for sensitive data, fr fr, because a blur is not a real censor. It's giving ✨aesthetic✨ not ✨security✨. πŸ’€
  • fill β€” this one blacks out the area you selected, which actually censors it. That's the real one. That's the main character. πŸ‘‘

Also, currently only a rectangular selection of the area to censor is supported β€” no freeform lasso situation, just a nice lil rectangle πŸ“

And if you're sitting there like "what do I even press??" β€” the keyboard shortcuts can be viewed by pressing CTRL+? 😌 iykyk.
