Whenever possible, use QR codes from sub-addresses to share your wallet.

Alphanumeric character strings, as we know our wallets, are much easier for analysis companies and AI to collect and analyze.

    I don’t think that matters much, even the Monero GUI wallet can read QR codes from your screen. I bet it would only make it minimally more resource intensive to look for QR codes while scraping for addresses 😅

    right, but qr codes are relatively easy to recognize (pixel pattern with 3 larger, aligned pixels), and they just decode to the text of the address, so this might (easily) not achieve the goal

    Actually it would be way easier for a public camera to read a qr address on your phone when waving it around in public. utilities/libraries exist to encode and decode them very easily. negligible. on pc it is annoying to use qr codes.
