We see these things differently. I would argue that Matrix clients are better organized than Discord. That said, not only is Discord a privacy nightmare, but ilthe interface is only pseudo-organized at best.

Use LibreWold and/or Mullvad. Done.
I use the whole 365 suite, including cloud pc, provided by my work, on Fedora. I block a whole lot of stuff, and everything works, minus the annoying ads and pushy up sales.
YMMV, but I strongly suggest you start blocking crap at the hosts level, if something breaks, start unblocking.
In that case, and please anyone correct me if you think I’m wrong, I would create a user just for that, entirely divorced from real life “me”, including, but not limited to, different country, gender, age, all demographics, and use this persona exclusively for this purpose.
Know that if you are expecting to monetize directly from YouTube, this is most likely an exercise in futility, but if you you’re not concerned with that, you’re golden.
I would make sure to upload always over a VPN, just for good measure.
Here’s the deal, YouTube belongs to Google, which makes the content inherently easy to find, unless YouTube doesn’t want it to be. That removes any possibility of you controlling who can see and who can’t.
Peertube is a completely different animal, you have much more control on who has access, in special if you self host.
My confusion with you post is that you say you want it to be hard to find, but at the same time you want it to be “successful”, what do you mean by that? What would make it successful for you?
Mind the compatibility with the instructions set. Armv7 apps will not work on Armv8 processors and viceversa. That makes it even harder to get the right modded apk.
Use a DNS out of your jurisdiction, preferably a privacy focused one, that issue will go away.
That’s a real brain fuck. Now I need to go research this.
My gut is circular, that’s bullying 🤣
A VPN has it’s advantages, mostly to avoid your ISP snooping on you (while having to trust another party not to snoop) and giving you access to stuff in the internet that may be geoblocked.
A solid DNS provider with Doh or DOT will encrypt your browsing, so I also believe it’s better than a VPN, but I use both.
It’s a matter of not overdoing it. Do it one step at a time. I feel you on the ADHD, I am also diagnosed, and now I inly check Lemmy and Mastodon every now and then. My mental health has improved dramatically since I dropped all the mainstream social networks.
When I look at my gut, I ask myself the same question 😭
I did the same on a PC I built like 10 years ago just because “why not?” 🤣
I’ll watch it right now and come back. BRB.
Edit: now I have to “arrr” that series and watch it. 🤣🤣
There are many reasons Microsoft software is only “good” (and I’m using that word loosely) in business and home settings. Can you imagine a rocket taking off and windows suddenly “rebooting to complete updates” (or whatever it is that it says along those lines)?
Yeah, I’ve no idea what happened either, as I’m not that smart, lol. I just tend to move away from stuff that breaks easily. I searched a bit around to see if I found anyone else with this issue, but found nothing even remotely similar.
Could be that my hardware is the issue? I was running it on a Gazelle 16 (System76) with an RTX3050Ti. But Fedora Workstation has always worked flawlessly on it.
Since Fedora 37 I had issues waking up from sleep and hibernation only on my laptop with an NVIDIA card, never on my 2 Ryzen PCs.
Since Fedora 40 it works everywhere now. I’ve always been on Gnome, so that could be a factor as well.
Here’s the deal, most people from yesterdays started on Ubuntu or something similar. So, they suggest what worked for them. I just moved my wife away from Windows and straight into Fedora, I haven’t had to help her on anything other than once she could not find the printer (it’s on another VLAN and she was not connected to it 🙄). She is loving it and just last night told me, and I quote, “I should have changed sooner”.
Fedora just works, but another factor may be that Debian and Ubuntu based distros are LTS what le Fedora is more semi-rolling, this helps with stability, thus it makes sense to suggest something with less probability of breaking suddenly than something they may need to roll back.
As for atomic distros, YMMV. I find them sluggish during install, boot and when starting an app for the first time, and in my case, broken after a few updates (would not work on Wayland forcing me to log in over X11).
That has not been the case anymore for months. We have 3 different Fedora Workstation 40 computers/laptops and 1 Nobara laptop, and they all sleep and hibernate just fine, and wake up just as well.
That’s to be expected. Linux distros are barely just getting their feet wet in the tablet/mobile world.
I have no use for tablets, but if I did, I’d certainly go the Linux way and deal with whatever I have to before ever thinking to use Apple, Microsoft or any Google OS.
That’s fucking hilarious and awesome. 🤣🤣
