Some would say all you need is to cuff your jeans and appreciate lemon bars! Jokes aside, I always took the prevalence of memes like that by and for bi people as a self aware dig at the fact we don't really have much of an established culture just yet and it's kind of an ongoing thing. That's been my interpretation at least, I'm certainly no authority.
At any rate, hang in there and I hope you manage to find your way out of the closet and into a situation you're comfortable with soon if that's your wish :)

Not OP but thanks for bringing n8n to my attention, wasn't aware of it. At a glance it seems similar to Node-RED but leaning more heavily towards the IFTTT/Zapier side of things with tighter integrations, definitely an interesting project.

Not to mention Pixel phones aren't available at all in several countries, don't think I've ever seen one myself

My go-to is Vampire Survivors! Default runs are 30 minutes long but you can make them as short as 15 iirc all the way to endless. Mindless enough that you can zone out but you can get more involved if you want.

As per the documentation, pools are basically just resource groups to make permission management easier, so they aren't really supposed to handle anything like that. Maybe look into a RAID setup of some sort or mergerfs if you just need file level pooling.

I've always wanted something like that, very cool!
Any plans to incorporate customizable cloud saves? I'm envisioning listing files and registry keys, maybe fetch a starting point off PCGW to give users an idea of what to expect and whatnot.
Linux client support would be great too, the Steam Deck could make great use of this.

I've gone through Gnome 2, Unity, Cinnamon and nowadays tend to favor KDE and honestly, I pretty much always try to replicate a traditional experience no matter which of them I'm using, so pretty much the opposite of what you're asking, I suppose. I'll say I did appreciate the top left corner quickly exposing all windows, so that feature I try and replicate whenever possible.

Always sad to witness folks losing their jobs, but I guess we all saw this coming. Here's hoping they all manage to land on their feet.
That said, I have to wonder what that second game was going to be about. Codename "It's Magic", probably something involving Gandalf or another Wizard? 🤔

Couldn't find anything about that either, my best guess is the author may have misread this portion of the official repo's README

Note that currently only Linux is fully supported, and only parts of this have been tested on Windows. However I've left some steps for anyone who wants to try getting Windows working, in theory using wsl it should be fairly straightforward and things should be identical.

So it sounds to me like you may have to deal with a IPv4 only address behind CGNAT, which makes port forwarding not work anymore. It's how my connection is set up, but luckily it does fully support IPv6 and that doesn't require any forwarding so I make do.
If IPv6 isn't an option for you or you'd like to access your services from IPv4 only networks, I'd just go with Tailscale myself. I've been a happy user for years and it just works so well, should be good in your situation as well.

Those are Rust and Nim

I gotta say, upon closer inspection Yunohost looks way more elegant and complete a solution than I was picturing. Figured it'd mostly be premade apps ready to install but there's also built-in LDAP + email, let's encrypt certificates, integrated security features, the list goes on and on. If the execution is even remotely as smooth as the documentation suggests, Yunohost sounds great!
