Linux Mint is the easiest one from the list, but all of them except Solus are fine. I personally recommend Mint or Debian, Debian Sid if you want latest kernel.

No, I don't really need it.

KDE should work fine, maybe with a bit of tweaking?

I thought about that too. If that doesn't work out, Xfce/LXDE/LXQT it is.

Well uhhhhhhh, when my "laptop"s plug is pulled out or the power goes out, it's dead :D. might need a battery change or an ups...

Well, uhh, these requirements. But idk.

Yeah I've heard Arch is lightweight, but that might happen in like 5 years :D

you know, i kinda over-saturated the positives of skiff now that i read this thing again, it feels like an advert. But I am in no way affliated with Skiff, I haven't even signed up yet, I just listed their services and positives.

I should have signed up and tested it for a bit, that's my bad, I apologize.

Proton Mail encrypts the content of the mails, not the subject. So even if it is a Proton Mail-to-Proton Mail conversation the subject is not encrypted. Skiff also encrypts the subject of the mail in a Skiff-to-skiff conversation.

That's a very big downside if you want to use them as your e-mail provider, yes.

Hmm, I see, my bad.
They do encrypt the subject and recipient/sender's e-mails but they are not e2ee.
Thanks for the correction.

As far as I know their e-mail client, Windows app, UI and some other smaller stuff is open source. Their backend is not. That's kind of a big concern.

I wrote this because I liked their services (because of their features) and wanted to know the community's opinion on them.
I don't really remember how I found out about them, but I think it was an article or video.
I wouldn't consider this thing I wrote "extensive", other than the Proton competitor stuff, I just listed some stuff on their website and some of my opinions.

Privacy respecting alternative to Youtube

I need a more privacy-oriented alternative to Youtube. I have try Odysee, which open-source but it has to do with tokens and that seems to me like crypto, which I don’t like. I have heard about Newpipe but this only for Android. Can you recommend me one that is also for the web and optionally open-source?...

Add SmartTube for Android/Google/Fire TV on there too :D

A distro and desktop environment recommendation for an old laptop (Read all of it, please.)

'sup? So, I am a beginner that has an old Samsung laptop from 2013 with an i3 4005U, a GeForce 710M, 500GB HDD (I will probably upgrade it to an SSD, but not for now.), 4GB 1600 MHz DDR3L RAM (the same for the HDD, will probably upgrade to 8GB some time.). It currently has Windows 10 Home but Linux is probably lighter (right?)...

Sucuk, to random
