Make sure the device you pick up has low latency. Not sure if you can find specs like that in the spec sheets. For watching video, latency is not an issue, but when gaming, you want as little time as possible to go by between you pressing a button and the thing showing up on the screen.

Yes your Matrix homeserver does have to run the bridges. So I agree with you - you have to somewhat trust the admins of your Homeserver, or host your own homeserver and bridges. But I understand that the latter is not for everyone.

Which funnily enough, has bridges to Signal, Whatsapp, Discord, Telegram and some more, meaning you wouldn’t have to have as many other clients installed to chat with contacts on those platforms

Knowing where the Netherlands begins?

have you tried the builtin “winget” as alternative to chocolatey?

check out “conversations” its free on f-fdroid and paid in the play store (although from time to time its free there, also)

thank you! more up-to-date packages sound good to me, will have to check out mint, then.

how would you compare Mint to MX Linux? Whats the biggest difference in your opinion?

When selecting a distro to mess around with, i just checked distrowatch to find the most popular distro and chose that (MX). My reasoning was that the resources like wiki/tutorials/forum posts would be most easily available with a more “popular” distro.

Alternatively: Firefox for Android + uBlock origin addon works well for me.

Unfortunately, there’s no Sponsor Block addon for Firefox Android.

Was habt ihr für eine Firewall? Mit einer, die auf Anwendungsebene filtern kann, würde ich einfach “HTTPS” freigeben, unabhängig vom Port.

Es passiert leider oft genug, dass Anwendungen auf alternativen Ports angeboten werden, da hast du schon ziemliche Einschränkungen nur mit 80/443.
