Use cases

If a user wants help in troubleshooting an issue, with this tool user can share logs for other users to see e.g. on the EndeavourOS forum.
Note that without logs and/or other system information troubleshooting can be practically impossible.

This tool aims to hide all personal information from the logs that will be sent to the internet. But hiding is not perfect (especially on journals), so it is a good idea to Save logs locally before sending.

Button Share logs to the internet sends the logs to the internet, and an URL is returned after a successful send.
This URL is the thing to share with those that help troubleshooting the issue.
