Alternatively, you could try to set your ISPs router into Bridge mode and use another router as the main router.

Having sealed sender only with contacts is an anti spam measure and they allow you to turn it on for everything. Also requiring a phone number is something that is fine if your threat model is not related to anonymity but to keeping conversations private. Moreover, at signal they are working on removing the requirement for phone numbers.

You can usually set up which DNS server to use in the device settings of each of your devices. is more work but fixes it.

I did not mean that you do literally everything with a keyboard.

What is quicker for opening an application? Going to the app overview finding the application and then clicking on it or quickly moving my hands to the keyboard (especially when using a laptop) and typing the application name + enter key?

A tiling WM renders my computer unusable for other people to use so it only is an option for a machine that only I will ever use.

The author seems to not get how Gnome in its default is meant to be used. Opening applications is not very efficient if you do it with your mouse but this part of Gnome is incredibly efficient when the keyboard is used. Moreover, that the dock is now further away is something that the Gnome designers have become aware of and planned fixes are in the pipeline for Gnome 41.

Of course the author also has some fair points. Extensions would be better of to be updated and downloaded via the systems package manager as otherwise updating them might break them.

That files does not give any default files to create by default I find a bit idiotic too but this functionality exists you just need to add a file to the template folder.

Matrix does not keep metadata completely private.

I don't get why you are concerned about your IP address, every service you use will be able to see your IP so if you want to hide it use TOR.
