This is my solution also. I listen to audio books on my way to work, and read on an ebook-reader in the evening. Can be tricky to sync when the chapter structure is non-traditional though (e.g. Discworld).

Are you currently running Linux on it? If so, what kind and what is your experience so far? I am on a Fairphone 4 myself. Content with CalyxOS, but mobile Linux as daily driver is definitely where I want to go. My impression is that not all features work reliably yet. I would need regular phone functionality (incl 5G), GPS and camera to work at least.

But is it viable? I know very little of browser development, but my impression is that it is a lot of work to develop and keep the browsers secure. If Librewolf separated completely from upstream Firefox, would they be able to keep the browser secure without significantly expanding their team?

I ask in earnest, as I said I know very little about this.

I see many people say to just use forks of Firefox. I use Librewolf myself. However, are such forks not very dependent on upstream Firefox not being completely enshittified? Will it be possible to keep the forks free of all new bullshit, or does that at any point become a too difficult/comprehensive task for the maintainers?

Playlists, history, subscriptions and settings are all stored as .db-files in ~/.config/FreeTube (or whatever path it is if you are using the Flatpak). Sync those :) On FreeTube Android, you have to turn on custom data storage path in the settings first.

Depends on your budget, I guess. My setup consists of a regular Samsung Smart-TV that I have disconnected from the network, connected to a mini-PC from Minisforum running Linux Mint. The reason I got that was mainly for gaming, could get away with a significantly cheaper option if not. I run my own Jellyfin-server for media content (movies, TV and music) and use FreeTube to watch YouTube (which I sync with my laptop and mobile using SyncThing). I do use a wireless foldable and rechargeable keyboard with built in trackpad, but it's not working as great as I imagined. Corsair used to have a nice media keyboard, but as far as I know they have discontinued it and I haven't yet found a new one that fits my criteria, so I keep using the foldable one.

As for gaming, I run emulation through RetroArch and Steam in big picture mode. I have four 8BitDo Ultimate controllers in case I get any friends over who are keen on a round of Mario Kart.

Are there any write-ups on the situation in Europe under GDPR-legislation? Mostly I read about the US-situation which seems like the wild west, but I can't imagine that it is perfectly fine in the EU either even if you opt-out of using their apps etc.

How accurate are these measurements? I don't know much about Norway, but if there was some massive roll-out of Linux in the governmental sector or their school system, surely there would be posts about it here?

Edit: I'm just having a hard time believing such high numbers without something like that.

Reminds me of the movie Her, where all kinds of heartfelt letters were outsourced to professional agencies.

I use CalyxOS on my FP4. I have been happy. Almost 2 years now.

Nice, need to check out mscp! Thanks for the tip!

If I had a stationary computer running, I would probably keep it running in a terminal window. I could connect a monitor to the server, but I don't think it will be necessary. I will need to verify the backup before I restore it anyway, and it is not time urgent, so that if something goes wrong I can restart.

I use a mixture of Organic Maps and OsmAnd+. Organic Maps is more simple, while OsmAnd+ allows you to set up a lot of customization in different profiles to tailor the experience to different use cases (e.g. one for hiking, one for "I'M HUNGRY SHOW ME FOOD", one for biking etc.).
