I use Fedora on my workstation and somehow have trouble with packages. E.g., there is no OpenVPN 3, which I need for enterprise network. Huh, Fedora 39 doesn't even have it in EPEL. So sad.
The video author can enable a setting to analyze the comments. YouTube itself flags comments that it deems inappropriate. The author only chooses which videos to include this tweak and the level of strictness.
It is enabled by default.
Comments that may be spam, self-promotion, gibberish, and otherwise potentially inappropriate will automatically be held for review in YouTube Studio and will only be published if you approve them.
If you want a higher level of protection for your channel, increasing strictness will increase the number of comments held for review.
Let me tell you a secret: any linux distribution is a kernel + a set of pre-installed drivers and programs + their configs. Nothing more than that! Most distributions use the same kernel and roughly the same set of programs. The only differences are in the desktop environment and initial settings.
I would recommend Linux Mint Debian Edition (LMDE) as a start choice. Do not trust those who say that if you choose a “beginner's distro” you won't have to get into the console or text configs. Your choice of distro will determine how often you'll do this.
As a regular user, I've used different distributions and always something didn't work. Many issues couldn't be solved via GUI, so I had to deep dive into both the console and all Linux services.
We are together with you in favor of XMPP (I am with both hands)! You just "won't sell" that kind of solution to very many people. We are already living in a zoo of messengers. We need to come up with at least two that will cover all the basic needs and offer sufficient privacy.
Seems that's true. Text-only communication in Briar is built by design. I see this from its communication scheme. I don't think any other message options will come up. So I am also on it in case of the Internet outage. Besides, you can chat properly only when you and your contact are both online. Not a very handy option for daily use.
So SimpleX.Chat for privacy and Matrix for public groups.
We recently discussed it in another thread. I recommend you read it, there are a lot of facts in the comments that will definitely help you make up your mind!
Now it's completely dependent on Bing's results! I'd even say it does a worse job than Bing. I compared results for different queries and Bing was much better than Qwant! In fact, if you read their privacy policy, they sell your private data to anyone who asks for it.
I don't use it as my default provider. Obviously, for some messaging, I use Proton. But if you need a FOSS provider, that will be used for registration in some services and password recovery, this is a very good option! They don't use this information for commercial purposes, that's already better than Gmail or Outlook.
Well, you know, e-mail gives you complete privacy only in special cases. There is a reddit's comments thread about this. Non-gmail e-mail is only needed to avoid monitoring by the mail service provider.
TL;DR
If you need complete privacy of communication, use Matrix-based software with your own server located in a neutral country.

P.S. Arch Linux daily-driver.
Arrr! Ok, correcting to “with both hands”! Sounds better?
Both hands in favor!
😍
Wow. Does anyone share software from "the russian hacker" Valdik outside the RUNet? That's the first time I've seen it.

Matrix's groups have an important difference from SimpleX. Even if the primary server is gone, the related servers will still have the copies.
This!

Fantlab for the Russian-speaking community. Couldn't find anything better on the Anglosphere internet.
LibraryThing for English-speaking people. I use it for the rest.

They don't.
I'm surprised no one's posted about Skiff.
