All advice here seems to focus on linux, but I'd say rip that bandaid off first. Go cold turkey on roblox. That shit is the worst cancer to come out of something that was fun initially.

Not in four months to a year. Yesterday. Learn to control your impulses first and the rest will fall into place, whichever way you go.

As the other commenter mentioned, only cards I have give grocery cash back / rewards at 5% rate and that doesn't apply to Amazon purchases (which is 1%). AMEX Cobalt for example is a paid card, C$12/mo, but with grocery and amazon gift card purchases the rewards pay for the monthly fee.

Reading that whole page, holy shit, it's like a twelve year old wrote it trying to sound very smart while also attempting to divert blame and falsify agenda. If this ain't a Russian psyop, nothing is.

The only reason I buy them is cash back / rewards credit cards. Say I know I want to spend $225 on something on amazon? I whip out my visa dividends, MC world elite or Amex Cobalt at the grocery store for 3-5% cash back or rewards card while purchasing groceries, and add a custom amount $200 gift card to the tally. So now I got $10 back on it in rewards that I can spend elsewhere. The CC issuer, Amazon and the grocery store are none the wiser.

I have a HP printer that works perfectly fine on Linux. But it's from 2015.

Why would anyone use that browser though? Besides all the rounds of shit it went through, the CEO seems like a nutcase. First he does anti-lgbt political donations, not just once, and has to resign from Mozilla among outrage after only 21 days as the CEO. Then he tweets uninformed shit about covid and has his staff remove criticism on reddit. Sounds like a real champ.

Datcord is just a Firefox based wrapper for Discord, instead of electron (which the Discord thick client uses). But you could just use a flatpak discord probably.

I'm using sheets provided by my GOOG work account already. Was just asking in case someone absolutely needs to have the thick client of Excel.

I think even web-Excel works well enough. I've used it recently through a sub provided by my university on my Mint laptop via Firefox.
