  • I was an Invidious user until I found out about Libretube, and the fact that on Libretube and even on a Piped website you can login to get your subs from other instances. That is crazy useful.

    So I am full Piped for now.

  • I do have a nice home setup, and I know friends that also do... but we all still go to the cinema maybe like once a month. It's just nice to share something with friends and strangers from time to time. Socialize, feel the vibe of the crowd, get surprised, create memories. Being out of home is cool.

  • Torrent software usually shows average data transfer of the last X seconds. Actually, everything that measures data speed is doing that.

    It might be that your config has a relatively long average. Nothing to worry about.

  • For simple online consumption? Yes, definitely. PNG is even worse than JPEG for this.

    PNG usefulness is for those cases where you really really really need lossless compression, which would mostly be professional printing, or really high quality stuff (wallpapers, etc).

  • Not open source, but AnyDesk is another option that does exactly what you want.

    There was a Flatpak, but the maintainer quit, so, you'll probably have to install it directly from their official site.

    Anyway, RustDesk, as mentioned by other comment, is essentially the open source alternative to AnyDesk, so maybe look into that first.

  • I completely disagree with you.

    If you gain sufficient amount of money (we are talking 100M $ here, but it works even for 1M), you have SO MUCH MONEY that it can generate money by itself within a reasonable timeframe AND you can live really really well with it, enjoy your hobbies and free time, all at the same time. And if you don't know how to do it, let a professional help you, because you can pay for them, too.

  • Avoid Manjaro, if you plan on entering the ArchLinux space do it with EndeavourOS.

    I would avoid Ubuntu, but that is more because I dislike their politics on snaps.

    You are an entry-level IT pro, so, I'd suggest EndeavourOS for personal, Debian for work. Why? Simple, Debian is widely used in professional environments, nobody will look at you weird for using a "less professional" distro.

    In terms of University work, you are saying you guys use Teams and Office, probably with a student license that would give you access to a full online Office experience through the browser, just use that.

    In terms of gaming, things are looking pretty good nowadays, and with a more personal distro, such as EndeavourOS, you'll get the latest advancements in gaming.
