Play on Linux has been succeeded by Lutris or Bottles. I've tried both and personally I have fewer issues with Lutris but Bottles UI is a lot more intuitive. So I'd suggest trying Bottles first and if you run into issues use Lutris.
I use SaltStack to automate my servers. Just feels better than Ansible to me.
For my PC and laptop I don't do anything, I haven't hopped distribution since I started using Tumbleweed a few years ago.
The main distribution we use has it like that by default and our (admittedly rudimentary) benchmarks haven't shown much of a performance difference versus ext4 so we kept to the default.
Repression against climate activism is (in my view) at an all-time high with movements even labeled as terrorists and a certain part of the populace agreeing with injuring or even killing members of climate activist groups. Not something I'd want to put myself into. :/
I pretty much stopped watching videos like that. "$Game story EXPLAINED" but actually it's just a 30 minute rehash of the story without anything added to it or explained by the content "creator".

That 0.18mb accumulates quickly on the server's side if you have 10000 people trying to access that image at the same time. And there are millions it not billions of images on the net. Just because we have the resources doesn't mean we should squander them..that's how you end up with chat apps taking multiple gigabytes of RAM.
Couldn't it be possible to set a script that restarts jitsi as that user's login shell?
