Oh you mean like is currently happening right now without socialism?
The small business part of the transition is "easy" (or at least, not any harder than maintaining a capitalist business), people have been and are currently doing this already. They are known as worker-owned cooperatives, and are often extremely liberating to those who make the effort. Depending on the industry (and the government you live under), it's not even that difficult, roughly on the order of forming a freelancing agency. There are also entire organizations dedicated to assisting with corporate transition to cooperative structure.

AdGuard has a list of trusted DNS providers, which seems like a good source. Many of the ones in that list are free as well.

No idea if this is a useful suggestion, but I saw it spoken of in another thread about CAD software: there's a free and open source plugin called BlenderBIM that is apparently a decent option.
Both owned by Google, unfortunately, so not a surprise I guess.
Vortex seems to work fine using Lutris now. I'm not sure when it changed, but at some point recently I figured I'd give it a shot again and just downloaded and ran their installer exe and it worked.
The golden palace in their mind.
I think you need to take a break and get some perspective.
Besides, the Twitter link was already posted by the OP, why would it need to be posted again?
Give it a shot again, something changed recently in Proton (I assume) that made Vortex "just work" for me on my Steam Deck. I didn't even need to do any fiddling, I just ran the installer exe from desktop mode using Lutris and whatever Proton was latest, and it installed perfectly. Vortex now runs entirely as expected, even from game mode.
