From what I understand, wayland is better than x11 for privacy bc of the use of portals (the way apps communicate with the system), and flatpak over distro packages for sandboxing (you can also change the permissions yourself with flatseal).

don't forget if you have location enabled in your phone it tracks every single place you've been to
I use flatpak for all GUI apps I use.
next week I'm finally going to get an AMD card and get rid of nvidia for good!
I have a zenbook as well (not the same model) and I only had problems with Windows. When coming back from suspension it would be hot and the screen had like white fog on the edges. I tried to fix it but with no success. Frustrated with that I decided to give Linux a try and never had that problem again.
I assume you changed the ssd, I didn't know that was possible, I thought it was soldered to the motherboard. Is it possible you received a faulty drive from WD?

go back to your Linux sucks community where it's only you and your other account. no need to come here to get attention
If that is a true priority, then you do not want Android TV.
Not even a raspberry pi with lineage os?
You would also be hesitant with youtube and netflix
I know. As I said, I'd be using Jellyfin for the most part.
check fd-find, "A simple, fast and user-friendly alternative to 'find'". Really good trust me
in my case if I use mkv it starts transcoding and mp4 works fine on every device (desktop, android app, Chromecast, browser)
that surely is the issue. you can convert it to mp4 with ffmpeg:
ffmpeg -i input.mkv -c copy output.mp4
If you want to keep subtitles this will probably work:
ffmpeg -i input.mkv -map 0 -c copy -c:s mov_text output.mp4
Thanks for recommending gamescope. I was trying so hard but it wasn't working, turns out it was because I was using the flatpak version of steam and gamescope. When I installed the fedora steam (rpm-fusion) and gamescope, it worked without any issue.
I know that it is possible to run gamescope on flatpak steam, but it didn't work for me.
4k FSR boosted my fps from 60 to 100 and it maybe looks even better, it blew my mind.
