If Windows makes you happy keep using it. You owe a bunch of Linux nerds anything.
I mean if you want root, just buy an unlocked phone. You can run Lineage OS on the Pixel phones just fine. Full root access. This VM system has nothing to do with that.
If it's anything like Chrome OS, you have full root in the VM.
I've been using Termux for years and there are a lot of nice things you can do. Also, a lot of nice tablets have good keyboards.
I've had no problems with LDAC. There is a free software LDAC decoder in Debian.
You should be able to pair them just like any Bluetooth audio device, providing your system has a Bluetooth radio chip in it. Most laptops made in the last 10 years do. I use my Redmi buds on my desktop and laptop without issue.
It's also worth mentioning that the VPN in question, Proton, offers one of the best free tiers of any VPN company.
As long as you have notepad, you're good.
I'm not going to condone this, but also.... haha.
I'm a YouTube creator, part of the partner program, and I also manually upload to TILvids. The videos I make generate about $100-$300 a year through the partner program, so I'm not a professional by any means. It feels like they're trying to keep creators from leaving by putting up small roadblocks that limit our reach beyond the platform. Given PeerTube's non-profit model, I see it as a potential future for content sharing. Though there are a few rock stars on YouTube, most of the creators on that platform make little to no money from publishing videos. There are more people like me than Linus Media Group.
It's had all the signs of a bubble for the last few years.
