Even worse: the .deb file's dependences are only available in a specific version of Ubuntu LTS or with PPAs.

Revolt is the most Discord-like FOSS chat app; it's very easy to use and customizable. Rocket.chat and Mattermost do similar things and are more oriented toward organizations (the Slack/Teams Classic use case).
Debian Stable. It doesn't break with updates, it doesn't break when I try to customize it, it has all the software you could ever want, and it just works. It's robust, elegant, and free forever.
For most people I'd recommend a derivative like Mint, Q4OS, or SpiralLinux, since those smooth out a sometimes annoying setup process, but for me vanilla Debian is perfect.
Fandom does care about cash cows, and will almost certainly do the same thing they've done with several wikis that have left: take it over, remove references to the move, and continue attempting to compete with the new wiki, leveraging their better SEO.
But if anything, Fandom considering Memory Alpha a cash cow would be even more of a reason to leave, considering that Fandom tends to cover those wikis with ads (that's why Minecraft Wiki moved).
What makes this extra confusing to me, is that this doesn't seem to happen to the same extent for Invidious instances. I've only needed to swap between two instances on Clipious, whereas on LibreTube I was hopping across their entire instance list and sometimes not finding even one working instance.
I listen to music all the time, so probably, but most of the true sensory overloads I remember were when the album I was playing already finished and I still had them on... so I suppose I'll keep that in mind, that transitioning out of noise cancelling may be easier during music.
I suspect a lot of "evil admirals" were promoted by votes from, or just to appease, reactionary political movements.

The problem is, for me, noise cancelling often either isn't enough, or creates a much bigger sensory problem when I inevitably have to take the headphones off.
And the settings with a big enough loudness problem to justify noise-cancelling tend to be ones where having to turn it off is inevitable before the noise dies down (to talk to someone)... so I usually don't bother.
This is weirdly common, from what I've heard. You'd think it would be obvious that a disorder (or neurotype, or whatever you call autism) requires accommodation, which requires self-advocacy, which requires being allowed to know what's going on with you.

Hopefully this is original enough? I'm not sure. I've gotten away with posting desktops with mostly existing themes before, but on other occasions I've had posts removed for it. At least I mixed and matched some icons this time.
