"Life is going to continue on just fine" - unless you're a woman (bans on contraceptives, loss of bodily autonomy), queer (rolling back protections for LGBTQ+ people, penalizing even talking about them), non-Christian, a minority...
I don't think one currently exists, but it would be an interesting project. There are plenty of trackers for CVEs but in terms of project ethics, acquisitions, etc., there's a space for it.
The two main problems I can see are:
How do you define 'negative'? An open source application being acquired is often a bad thing, but not always. An acquisition by FUTO is more likely to be viewed positively than an acquisition by Microsoft, but either can be interpreted positively or negatively depending on the person.
Community involvement is absolutely critical. If I were running a service like this (for example), I would only really be keeping up on the services I use and care about. I would need others to submit info and then verify it.
I hope eventually we get an ARM-powered Framework.
Bought a Framework shortly after Linus Techmin joined forces with them. Was stolen out of my partner's car a few months later and just haven't been able to justify (or afford) a replacement.
If you want your environment to be consistent between desktops, keep it mostly stock. The default KDE themeing and setup is pretty damn similar to Windows 10, and I've kept it stock ever since I started using it ~1 ½ years ago.

AV1 is definitely what I'd like to do. I'm not aiming for maximum compatibility; small file size and high quality encodes are my goal. I can transcode if needed.
The issue is storage costs. Currently they (and some Blu-ray shows I ripped) are taking up just over 12TB. I bought all of these movies when I had money to spend on stuff like that, but money is short and times are tough. "Storage is cheap" but my wallet is cheaper right now, aha.
For what it's worth, I've been running alternative Discord clients for years (Webcord, discord-screenaudio, and now Vesktop/Vencord) and haven't encountered any issues or bans. By far, the most polished and well integrated is Vesktop/Vencord. I don't consider my Discord account worth risking either, but given that I've yet to see a verifiable report of someone losing access to Discord for using an alternate client (even the ones that enable Nitro subscription features), I think I'm pretty safe.
Personally, I'd say risk it for the biscuit. There are some hacky workarounds but all of them are annoying to set up and finicky. As for alternative platforms, I'm not sure...
Gas fees, fees to convert to fiat, electricity bills for miners / initial investment for stakers... No matter how you frame it, there are still associated fees. Might as well use the standard we have at the moment.
Unrelated, but I would have preferred a stolen, watermarked Getty Images photo rather an an AI-generated one. Fits the pirate vibe better to have blatantly and unabashedly stolen something than to indirectly do so with plausible deniability.
Depending on your threat model, your best bet would probably be to purchase a burner phone at Walmart or something with cash. Then only use the phone for verification purposes.
