but seems customized to Roblox and closed source

You don't have to give multiple reasons for one to avoid Roblox

How to reduce time on Youtube or make it more enjoyable

  • avoid shorts completely (revanced)
  • avoid reaction videos
  • avoid any video which has someone with a mouth open or just making a ridiculous face
  • avoid videos with clickbaity thumbnails/titles (duh) no matter how much you like the creator
  • avoid videos which have "watch till the end" in the title
  • [Important] watch channels with moderate number of subs and views

Those are jumping to Librewolf from Firefox, keep the following things in mind

  • It's a privacy first, usability second browser
  • It's not a browser for your grandparents. You have you take some steps to give it the same functionality as Firefox
  • Good news is it removes a lot of Mozilla cruft
  • Browser fingerprinting, which allows websites to recognize an individual user, is disabled on this browser. This feature greatly enhances privacy.
  • But it means it will 'slightly' break some websites. Nothing very serious but certain QoL features will be missing at first. Eg. When downloading a software, it can't determine which OS you are using.
  • You can enable browser fingerprinting and get those QoL features back.

Hope you have a good experience on Librewolf. I've been using it for the past 1 year and it's fine.

Discord uses unencrypted WebRTC

I'm a noob but how unencrypted are we talking about here? Can someone do a packet capture and reconstruct the video? Or like unencrypted at the machine level and other processes can see.

you're on a decentralised, federated social media website. why are you arguing that more centralisation is a good thing?

The same reason people gave up piracy for Netflix a decade back; it offered a better service.

Note: I know what Netflix is like now. But my point still stands.

Sorry but Linux is becoming too mainstream for me now. Time to hop on to BSD
