Because they're DRM free, they're super easy to install too! Another install method is Heroic

I find having the full OS is useful, and this KDE environment proves great https://plasma-bigscreen.org/

If you want to preserve your battery, follow the same principles for any battery, avoid having above 80% and below 20%. I'm not sure for KDE, but on GNOME I have a GUI utility that lets you set this and enable/disable with a toggle.

LOL, that's like saying any positive article from PBS or CBC is bad given the US & Canada are even bigger oil producers

1:1 calls, sharing is available through their WebRTC implementation. Group calls if they're still using Jitsi are done through Jitsi, which has support for them

Gnome Health and my GNU Health works well. Linux only though

Element meets all of that criteria

Kodi If you are using more than one device, and have an always on device you can serve from, Jellyfin makes sense and is super easy to get up and running. Trakt and LibreFM can track your media usage history and integrate well. You can even continue to use Kodi as the front-end.

The two most common sources of microplastics that enter your body are from the vessels you eat/drink from, and from particles in the air from things like clothes, carpets, furniture, linens.

How to avoid? Use stainless steel, aluminum, copper, (or other metals), ceramic, or glass storage vessels for things like water (including your Brita) for warming things in the microwave, or for storing food, and reduce buying things in plastic if you plan on keeping them there for awhile (eg glass ketchup bottle). Replace any plastic water pipes in your wall with good ol copper. My main water vessels are all stainless steel.

For particulate, consider air filtration, buy clothes/furniture/carpets made from natural animal/ sources like cotton, wool, bamboo, avoiding plastics like polyester. That includes your scrubbing utensil for dishes. Your carpets are probably made with some sort of plastic, so if it's too much to do hardwood, or replace with a natural fibre, the Dyson vacuums are good at getting out loose microplastics.

Be warned, one time I almost bought a stainless steel cup from a reputable retailer, and upon further investigation it was just plastic with a steel coating.. Yep, made in Communist China..
