Disheveled hair. If you have long(ish) hair and you're going out in public, at least drag a comb through it so you don't look like a bed-head.

Whether people read as a hobby or not. As it implies a type of interest into the world around them.
And as a lesser second, what they read.
Their taste in music. Sorry but if Pink Floyd is your favorite band i have to assume you're boring

If I told you, it wouldn't be secret.
Why yes I am a clever little scamp!
For being british.
Here are my top 5:
- Being on their phone too much.
- Being willfully ignorant.
- Believing in religion.
- Using proprietary social media apps (e.g. Instagram, Snapchat, Facebook).
- Using non-free BIOS firmware / non-free software.
Using proprietary chat apps like Discord, Telegram, Slack, LINE, Meta’s WhatsApp / Messenger. Still judging on apps that require a SIM & mobile OS (like Android) primary device like Signal… or an expensive chat protocol like Matrix.
Hosting your code & bug tracker with a propietary forge like Microsoft GitHub when you say you support open source—but don’t even bother to apply the same mentality to your own project.
…Oh, the question was “secretly”.

Eating meat although they're fully aware, that we have to shift completely away of that (GHG emissions, land-use), and then blame the government that they need to regulate this more.
Yes more government regulations would be great, but it's one of the few individual things that have effect, if everyone would think similar. And a vegan or mostly vegan diet is not really worse in taste and likely more healthy as well... Eating meat is not sustainable (nor morally justifieable), it should be a thing of the past...
Been vegetarian now for about 4 years, haven't regretted it yet. I thought I would miss meat more, but I really don't.
I totally have experienced the random anger and judgment from other people. They hear I am vegetarian and all of a sudden they start either attacking vegetarianism/veganism, or they start trying to defend meat-eating.
On the positive, I've never been healthier, and there are more and more restaurants that offer veg/vegan food, or at least options to make it meatless. And I have met quite a few young people that are going veg/vegan, or at least are flex/pescatarian.
And from the downvotes I conclude that this will remain a mostly secret judge. It's sad, that you don't see it yet, this will very likely be the future whether you like it or not (when we don't fuck it up completely, but I'm somewhat hopeful).
The argument that meat is cheaper is also not really true anymore. There's basically no reason to eat meat anymore. Matter of fact, I developed a distaste to meat when I mostly stopped with eating meat, after eating way too much before (tastes kind of rotten compared to plant-based), try it out, it's easier than you think, and gets easier over time.
Sorry about the downvotes
