Firefox is better than most, no double there, but at the same time they do have some shady finances.

I'm not going to refute this because it seems to me that article are right in several points. Also, we have to be honest, Mozilla is kind of stupid sometimes.

But if you care about the default search engine or privacy settings, you really just need to do some hardening and tweaks to make it very private in general. Chromium doesn't have any of these settings, it even doesn't have RFP btw.

and they also do stuff like adding unique IDs to each installation.

Looks like you can download Firefox through the Mozilla's official HTTP/FTP repository that doesn't trigger this ID token generation. Also this article motivates people to download Firefox installer from Softonic's page:

Firefox users who prefer to download the browser without the unique identifier may do so in the following two ways:

  1. Download the Firefox installer from Mozilla's HTTPS repository (formerly the FTP repository).
  2. Download Firefox from third-party download sites that host the installer, e.g., from Softonic.

Softonic have a really nice and privacy respectful privacy policy (obviously that's not the case) in contrast with randomized pretty anonymous unique ID triggered by Firefox installer download. Mozilla's generated ID feels more like a download counter than a tracker indeed.

I'm not trying to justify the Mozilla's problems. They makes silly things sometimes, but being realistic, they do a better job taking care of their users privacy more than Google or even Brave.

These are pretty good news! Thank you for explain in a better form the context of situation.

Actually, sounds cool. Now feel sure I can run cs1.6 no steam with 18 trojans detected by VirusTotal from a pakistani server and don't scare me because I will use Bottles into a Arch Linux Virtual Machine lmao (this is just a sarcasm, in any case, I also bought cs1.6. I think there are only hackers anyways)

You probably will not notice that you are in other distro when you start using Debian. They are the same in most things, but without Snaps and most propietary stuff (by default. But if you really need propietary things, you may see the official non-free sourcelist)

Because Bottles is distributed via Flatpak, which is...

Safe. Sandboxed.

Because...

Your bottles are isolated from the system and will only hit your personal files when you decide.

The full-sandbox is provided and pre-configured only using the Flatpak package (highly recommended).

All other packages still have access to the partial sandbox which isolates the bottle files and prevents them from accessing your homedir.

(This is a extract from the official homepage in the last section)

In my experience. I didn't like Murena. I used it for a while (I think 6 months. I don't remember well). And yes, it's "ok", but the interface is a bit broken.

The good thing is that there is a lot of software you can use there: OnlyOffice, NextCloud (much of their software), Searx and even Gitlab are there.

Another thing: if you like SMPT and IMAP, the Murena account offers you this. I prefer Proton, but it a good option too.

I forgot Firejail and Bubblejail. These are good tools. I mean, only need to learn use it xd But actually sounds good.

Disroot also gives all +Xmpp +Fediverse

Well then, why no choose Disroot instead?

I'm simply using Brain and Brain++ compilers to build and run ideas. Plus you can overclock your own neurons

I don't trust in any Windows Application at all, but I think this doesn't mean I need to live under a rock. This is the reason because I open this Post. So thank you for you help and your time :) You are very cool.

I think is a good option play videogames in a Virtual Machine when is possible. But I just want to feel "more secure" when I need to play in my host machine, for example, using sandboxing.

So... That means the current only way to keep the main system is through Virtual Machines?

Well... Flatpak ships Propietary Software too. And at this point Propietary Software is almost avoidable (unless you have a LibreBoot. I want one too). But it's reasonable to be frustrated that an operating system as influential as Ubuntu has ended up falling so down in its technology, and that it has the support of a company like Chanonical.

Edit: Thank you for the comments. I didn't noticed Snap itself is propietary.

I really do not know. But what I can say for sure is that during the installation of Debian, it allows you to choose the desktop environment at installation time, so you can have your Debian with KDE at minute 0 after installing it.

On the other hand, remember that Kubuntu is derived from Ubuntu. I don't see Ubuntu fans very enthusiastic about creating another Debian-based distro with KDE preinstalled when they even offer it (live images) to you here.
