  • I personally use Niagara after years of Nova. I like it’s clean presentation and the alphabet on the side to quickly jump to less frequently used apps. I will say though, if you’ve experimented with other launchers and still come back to Pixel, there’s nothing wrong with that. It sounds like it meets your needs.


  • I’m also going to add that any online service you sign up for, always check through their privacy settings and make sure the options to not gather data are enabled. Another one is to check through settings for your ISP and cellular plans. Some collect various data to “enhance” services. Lastly I’ll mention that on mobile devices switch to a privacy oriented browser like the recommendations below, and use Progressive Web Apps instead of native apps. These will include the browser’s privacy protections by default.









  • It can definitely feel overwhelming, so start simple. Install a basic well known distro; I’m partial to Fedora, but Ubuntu is also a great choice. You’ll learn a ton just by using it day in and out for typical tasks. If you need help reach out to the community. If anyone comes off as rude I recommend just ignoring and blocking them. Using it will eventually come to feel second nature like MacOS or Windows. Enjoy!
