The only game I have ever played is FIFA on a PS4. Now I have a gaming laptop but have no idea how I should go about playing games on Linux. Appreciate your help in advance!
Calamity is great, but if you’ve never played any other games, I’d try others before running straight from Terraria to Calamity. If just for a broader experience
There really is no way to verify that any email service isn’t a honeypot. Even if you open source your server code, that doesn’t mean it’s what’s actually running on the server. They could publish served code then be running totally different code on their servers with no way to tell.
Tuta’s biggest weaknesses for me right now are the seeming lack of independent audits and the lack of interoperability for encryption. Proton is the biggest competitor and seems to have both. However, Proton has grown more in the way that a honeypot would, adding VPN, cloud storage, password manager, etc, so more data collection points. Tuta is still email, contacts, and calendar.
End-to-end Encryption client-side is available from Nextcloud desktop client 3.0 and newer as a folder-level option to keep extremely sensitive data fully secure even in case of a full server breach. The server facilitates key exchange for syncing between devices and sharing but has Zero Knowledge, that is, never has access to any of the data or keys in unencrypted form.
It’s not a big deal if you self-host at home either. You can use SSL for the traffic and LUKS for the storage.
BTC, ETH, and XMR are the only ones that matter. Some stable coins (USDC, GUSD) are okay, too.
BTC (Bitcoin) is good because it’s the most widespread. If a vendor accepts crypto, odds are they accept BTC. However, the blockchain is easily traceable.
ETH (Ethereum) is good because its blockchain is far more versatile, so it can be used for other things than just crypto payments. However, it’s less widely used for payments than BTC and is also easily traceable.
XMR (Monero) is excellent. It’s extremely difficult to track an individual user. Your transactions are private. There are some possible attack vectors for the future, but they’d require that you be an actual target to be worthwhile. Someone that’s going to track you is going to find a different way than XMR to do it. XMR isn’t as widely used as the others, though, and it’s also not on as many crypto exchanges. Kraken has it.
However, crypto as an investment is not a good idea. Spend your crypto.

For example, people of color tend to post fewer pictures of themselves on the internet, mostly because remaining anonymous is preferable to experiencing racism.
It’s working fine for me. I like the improved icons and slightly adjusted layout, and the auto-hide panel feature is great.
Issues with my setup: window title applet isn’t yet updated to support KDE 6. I know there’s a version on the AUR that should work, but I’m waiting to see if it hits the Arch extras repo soon. My Papirus icons don’t seem to be applying, so all my folders are Green but Dolphin’s icon itself is blue. I also did get a weird temporary black box when moving a window out of the way from an auto hide panel, and the auto hide causes a stutter when it comes back into view.
