Just FYI: I just put Ubuntu on an older laptop. I had a problem with streaming video, they kept stuttering. The fix, as far as I can tell, is to run XORG instead of Weyland. (Select on bottom right of log-in screen, where it asks for password.)

But yeah, I'm almost there. Replaced Google with Proton (paid service, but worth it to be out of Google's ecosystem, and there's free options, too, I think). Just need to decide on a secure browser and phase out my existing accounts.

Feels good, man. Feels so fucking good to be moving in the right direction.
