Docker to rootful podman is easy. Docker to rootless podman can get annoying due to the file permissions and slightly more limited networking

That's good to hear. I think self-hosting is one of the strongest use cases for Linux. I am a big self-hoster myself so I am glad to hear he'll still pop in every now and then and give us the latest news in the space.
Game performance is fine. It is the desktop performance that's the issue.

I would not recommend going to the open ones just yet. There are major performance issues with the GSP firmware. You can disable it on the proprietary modules but you can not do so on the open modules since they rely on it for functionality.
I only have a few privacy-focused friends on Signal and Matrix and I talk to them that way. I have a few friends who use my personal Nextcloud and just use Nextcloud Talk to chat with me. For all others, I still use the mainstream platforms and just take care to not post any info that I don't want public and I make sure the apps have limited info and app permissions.
I think it is tough to convince others to switch until they themselves see the need, at which point they'll start asking you for advice on what to do.
With new contacts, I'll usually ask if they have Signal first and if they don't then I don't really push it. I think just getting the name out there every once in a while is the most you can do.
I hate to say it, but depending on manufacturers for this kind of stuff will always inevitably lead to these kinds of situations. This is why I always buy OpenWrt compatible routers and DIY my own NAS.
Over the years, I've experienced:
- Netgear refusing to patch bugs like their IPv6 firewall essentially letting all traffic through on the R7800
- QNAP shipping NASes with Intel CPUs that had clock drift issues so bad they essentially bricked themselves. They then refused to provide any kind of support for them.
After that I basically said, fuck it, I'll DIY my own and have been much happier ever since. If you have the know-how and the time, DIY is the way to go for longevity.
I've been using my AMD 5600G's iGPU to do hardware decode and encode in Jellyfin and it works pretty well. Only downside is that it doesn't support AV1, but it works well with H264 and H265.
Holy god damn! Why does it look so damned slick?! Arch just keeps getting better and better for everybody.
Fuck those guys. I really wish LG would support DP a bit more in their products.
You may want to consider dockerizing your services just for maintainability and isolation from your host. I recommend something like Nginx Proxy Manager to serve as the "main entrance" for your docker network and to handle Let's Encrypt for you.
Yes and no. It's great for hiding your IP and preventing DDOS attacks, but it does require you to use their certs, which means they technically have access to your data. Cloudflare is pretty trustworthy, but the risk is still there.
I have a Nova 7 as well. The good thing is that the settings are saved into the headset itself, so you can just set it to how you like in Windows and have it be remembered in Linux.
I setup a small Windows VM and I passthrough the USB device whenever I need to change the settings, but I haven't needed to do that since I got the headset a year and a half ago. Of course, if you need to constantly change settings, yeah it is less than ideal.
