How trustworthy are those extensions? I see they are APKs.

Does a PiKVM to enter the password manually count?

Modern Android versions can use DoH (DNS over HTTPS) which can not be intercepted. If you don't have this option or are not sure how to configure it, you could use the Quad9 app to enable secure DNS. This way you can make sure it is not related to DNS. Frankly, I can't imagine they are blocking the IPs of the DuckDNS servers directly.

If it's just a DNS block, you could use a different DNS server. You should do this anyway in my opinion.

Can one recover from an accidental rm -rf of system directories by copying those files back in from a backup? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

What system are we talking about here? The --no-preserve-root option is part of every modern release of rm.

Edit: Never mind, I didn't read the post properly.

I'd probably try a minimal Debian installation with the Openbox WM.

You care enough to write ignorant comments about it.

What is your go-to Linux distro and why? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

For the past six years it has been Kubuntu, but I think it's time to finally abort Canonical and their idiosyncrasies and choose Debian as a KDE base, especially now that Debian 12 includes non-free firmware by default.
