TextSnatcher: Copy text from images, for the Linux Desktop
Just three hours ago I switched back to Linux after a few years on MacOS. The only thing missing was the amazing text copy tool I was using, "Rex" [1]. What a coincidence to see this post on the front page a few hours later!
Side note, what a breath of fresh air Gnome on Fedora is!

Clean Text alternative / text tools to auto strip most formatting from copied text? (preferably free / low cost)
So I know there's things like PurePaste (which I use), and TRex (auto-ocr screenshotted area, it's fantastic). But those work best for short shorter snippets.

Although if you don't need the screenshot functionality, Trex does OCR and is only about 3MB.

Tips – Preview the Mac app people forget about
To get this functionality everywhere, I’ve taken using the TRex app: https://github.com/amebalabs/TRex
I have it mapped to ctrl-alt-command-C. As more and more apps and webpages make text unselectable, it’s become invaluable. My favorite trick is to copy the URL when someone is screen sharing their browser in a virtual meeting!

MuPDF WASM Viewer Demo
I’m curious, have you tried SumatraPDF (uses muPDF under the hood)?

SumatraPDF Reader
Do you mind reporting those issues either to SumatraPDF at https://github.com/sumatrapdfreader/sumatrapdf/issues or directly to MuPDF at https://bugs.ghostscript.com/ if it also has the same issue? Thank you!
There are many wonderfully weird PDFs and epubs out there, but we do our best to fix issues. :)

FWIW, https://github.com/sumatrapdfreader/sumatrapdf/issues/1249 ("Support form filling for at least 1040 irs form") has a comment saying "MuPDF-GL has the capability to edit fields and save the PDF" of a 1040.
I have just learned the Firefox 93 added support XFA - https://techdows.com/2021/10/open-xfa-pdfs-in-firefox.html .
So it would appear there are free software solutions to XFA forms.
Just because something doesn't seem far-fetched to you, doesn't mean most people will regard it as far-fetched.
Many people all sorts of "sectarian objections" - far more than there are SovCits or other tax protesters. Stallman has never come across as a tax protester. Ergo, I think it's far-fetched that "sectarian objections" is strongly associated with tax protests.
Further, at https://stallman.org/archives/2017-may-aug.html we can read Stallman opinine that we need to "return to the "bad old days", when Americans in general could have a decent life, not penury; when the US could afford to build what the public needed instead of privatizing everything with a toll" by making taxation more progressive. At https://stallman.org/archives/2011-jan-apr.html we read he supports "The Fairness in Taxation Act [which] would raise taxes to 45% on incomes over a million dollars a year."
