It's always nice to have some motivation from doing things for others. Depending on the service, you can always host for others AND for yourself. It's 10x as much work but you do get positive feedback (sometimes..)
Yeah the Roblox thing is hard to swallow, it used to work better on Linux than on any other platform for me. Everything else there's alternatives - my local PC shop sells machines at a significant discount "without windows installed", maybe if more did that the market would take care of things and the software vendors would have to support Linux.
As a professional juggler practised early on to do things with either hand - whether it's washing dishes or putting a key in the door.. just paying attention to how you do things. Now can take juggle 3 balls in either hand

Then I think the actual answer is there are none. Although PipePipe can access PeerTube? Also BiliBili and NicoNico. BiliBili is possibly larger than YouTube but of course it's all in Chinese!
Digital. I've been reading ebooks for years, starting on my flip phone back in the day. The best part to me is being able to seamlessly switch from reading with my eyes to being read to (tts - I'm used to it now and it's waaaay better than it was).
I do a lot of driving for work so I can get a ton of reading done on the road 😁
The apipocalypse same as everyone else. I do miss my niche communities, and my 4000+ internet points, but as an open source enthusiast (I use arch btw) I'm very much at home here 😁
Yeah looking at you Roblox 😠. Has anyone hacked that anti cheat nonsense yet? Right now I'm mirroring my android phone on my desktop to be able to see what I'm doing (I'm over 40 but I play with my kids in case you wondering)
