I am so digging this!

OP bringin' out good memes, this run

Jack Gilbert is one of my favorite poets. If anyone asked when I was reading it, I would give a copy of The Great Fires to them, no questions asked. My local bookstore had an agreement, after Gilbert passed, to always carry on the shelf. I would refill whatever I gave away the next day.

Let me supersonic for you, Kermie

If you have access to any kind of UX and UI folks, you automagicallly get a leg up on this, y'all. It is goddamn amazing.

Single dev on a personal project? Go find someone in the community who has an eye for design or hit up a design forum. Work has you on a project with only two other devs and limited resources? Ask for a favor from the UX team down the hall.

We are all tryna make good experiences out here. Let us avoid getting 'teabagged.'

Unless you have built your own custom version of wine, and/or you don't remove your wine directory between versions, you can always install a different version of wine and try it out.

Thinkpads -- a laptop with a rich history of Linux use -- can be bought with an integrated 4090. The ThinkPad P1 Gen 6 can be configured with an i9, plenty of flexibility for drive space and RAM, and an RTX 4090. It'll run you, even used, around $3k to $4k, which is the equivalent of a desktop replacement. But it'll be pretty doggone compatible with any Linux distro you'd like.

Donated! Glad you are branching out, doing something to spur you on, and working to keep yourself encouraged.

OpSec, y'all. OpSec.

Use the user profiles feature of grapheneos to make a "social" profile and only use that to access Instagram / facebook.

You'll want to consider isolating IG from your primary profile, to start. The above user's suggestion hits the nail on the head.

Once the profile ks created, and you've installed IG, you'll want to deselect the option in your Manage Profiles settings on GrapheneOS to 'Allow running in the backgroud.' This way, you can ensure the app is entirely stopped until you want it open.

Another consideration may be to turn off your Bluetooth when it's not in use, as well: BT emits an 'address' of sorts that, if another IG user has enabled BT access on their IG app, may be able to detect your phone and track a conversation knowing you are in the other user's vicinity.

Is IG on a completely different profile in GrapheneOS, or is the app installed on the primary profile where you use your other apps? GrapheneOS's profiles completely isolate from one another.
