Modded discord is the only way I can tolerate it anymore, custom UI and plugins take a lot of the friction away on both mobile and desktop, Discord still needs a viable competitor though so stuff doesn’t get trapped only on Discord, and so they have an incentive to improve stuff instead of enshittification
The issue with modded Discord is the ban risk, despite how uncommon it is, the risk is still there
Welcome to PC! One thing I wish I knew back when I started on PC was isthereanydeal.com, checks a bunch of safe sites to buy games from (most in Steam key form, some just for other stores in general) and can email you when any of them go on sale.
Also, the Augmented Steam browser extension (Chrome/etc) (Firefox) is really nice, sadly no version of it to work in the Steam client itself that I know of, but it adds a ton of QOL to the store.

So I’ve been using youtube ad blockers since pretty much when ad blocker extensions were first available. Lately though I’ve been getting hit more and more with these messages that YT was sending out every 5 or so videos telling me that adblockers aren’t allowed. No problem, just gotta wait 5 seconds to x it out and then...
My 9yo daughter has a tablet with family link, so I can monitor what apps she wants to install. As the garbage games are mostly at the top free, she keeps asking for games that I reject, in most cases because it’s riddled with ads....
There are these little handheld console things you can get online for like $20-50 if you think she’d like older games like classic Nintendo, one of the cheap ones is called data frog SF2000 and it looks like an old SNES controller or this one for something higher quality that can run more consoles powkiddy.com/…/powkiddy-q90-3-inch-ips-screen-han…
