There are two good options: Host your own blog yourself, or join a blogging platform that isn’t corporate. I personally use BearBlog but I’ve heard good things about Write.as as well. These two have free blogging options and don’t sell your data. If you want to host it yourself (which is safer), check out Hugo.

Ultimately, bots scrape the entire internet and there’s no guarantee they will honor robots.txt of a particular website (which tells bots what they are and aren’t allowed to do). If it’s on the internet, people can scrape your content and there isn’t much you can do about it. That shouldn’t stop you from writing or blogging, just don’t post very personal data.

I made a guide a while back explaining everything. It’s easier than it looks, you’ll just use a manager like Lutris or Heroic and download the newest version of Wine-GE, then your games should work.

Whoops. I forgot to mention this. I’ll add a little section for it later…

Go to Steam settings --> Storage. There you can add your 2nd Steam folder and be able to move games back and forth. You can select many games and click “Move”.

I’ve heard a lot of varying experiences but for me personally I just couldn’t get it to work, and I tried most of the workarounds like disabling fast reboot. It worked for a while but every now and then I’d constantly have to reset permissions for the entire drive, and even then games would not run sometimes. If someone knows more about this I’d love some info on it, but in general most of the Linux community agrees that NTFS causes more trouble than it’s worth.
