Qvm-connect-tcp to sys-whonix for casual onion browsing?

[gasull]

Is it a good idea to have an AppVM use qvm-connect-tcp to sys-whonix for casual .onion browsing?

The main use would be DuckDuckGo onion with FoxyProxy. Almost all the rest of the browsing would be on the clearnet, without going through Tor, because it slows down the browsing and I don’t trust exit nodes.

Could this compromise/deanonymize VMs behind sys-whonix?

Machines based on the whonix-workstation template should always go through the sys-whonix network.

On the other hand, for your regular needs you can use another browser, located, for example, in qube:personal and connected to qube:MullvadVPN.
