At this point it not about passive collection, corporations are going to extreme ends to get our data.

I am interested in what people are doing to enforce their privacy while using the web.
I have some things in place, looking to compare with the community.
(btw, I am new here, this is my first post. So uh… Hi )
I only use LibreWolf on my pc's and IronFox or Vanadium on my phone. All except Vanadium have uBlock Origin with all social media blocked. I also use Mullvad vpn with social media blocking at dns level. In addition where vpn is not configured I use Mullvad's dns with all content blocking enabled. Of course no Meta or another social media apps on my Graphene OS phone (except Mastodon and Lemmy). As a cherry on top I use a Linux based OS (OpenSuse Tumbleweed) on my computers primarily (some Windows usage for some gaming).
I game on Debian.
I game on Tumbleweed but on some rare occasions I use windows e.g. my gaming laptop doesn't have Linux.
Why not?
Haven't actually tried but I have bad experiences with Linux and dual graphics laptops.
Me too. I still can't get the Nvidia card to work on my Acer Nitro 5.
Had to upgrade to a better laptop when Dawntrail released on Final Fantasy XIV.
Kids want me to play Roblox.
Don't listen to them. I've tried it and it's full of brain rot, slop, microtransactions, and a lot of inappopriate content. It's not even privacy friendly.
TL;DR:
DON'T
Easy to say, not so much to convince kids. Keep in mind they want to play Roblox mainly for 2 reasons:
That's the biggest fight, no matter how good some other game you make them play actually is, they will feel attracted to Roblox because of social pressure. If you want to see a similar effect among adults, look at football (either normal or murican) and EA's digital offerings
yep
MMO, They're playing with friends in different states/countries. Roblox, Minecraft, there are few remotely playable social kids games.
I mean, those are all the things that they want out of a gaming experience.
