Your hardware is not very different from mine. Maybe there’s something in here that helps you?

All good! Won’t take anything out of the experience, no worries at all!
It applies to every non-Federation civilisation. Part of it does include not interfering with pre-warp planets but that’s just part of it.
“Starfleet crew will obey the following with any civilization that has not achieved a commensurate level of technological and/or societal development as described in Appendix 1.”

Also they have no jurisdiction over Cardassians affairs.
I don’t think they ever thought they did. They were going into war, not upholding law in their own territory.
But Prime Directive or not, the Federation started that war.
I have already agreed with that. 😃
Lower Decks effectively rendered Discovery non-canon in its finale so now it takes place in an alternate universe.
Haven’t watched it yet. Looking forward though!
The Prime Directive is about not interfering with the natural evolution of non-spacefaring civilisations. It aims to not introduce advanced technology in less developed civilisations before they are prepared to handle it.
It absolutely does not apply to either Cardassia or the Dominion, especially given they’re already establishing such presence precisely to fight against the Federation.
Other than that I kind of agree with the rest of your post. Though personally I don’t consider Discovery canon so I’d discard that. I know a lot of people feel otherwise and they’re welcome to do so but I have no intention of debating this.
I don’t know which small phones have been released recently but I’ve used an iPhone Mini and decided against it. Not because it’s small but rather because it’s not small enough.
See, I do like a big screen more than a small one. That said, the phone is something I carry in my pocket so there’s a balancing act to be done there. What was really great about the original iPhone’s size was not that it had a small screen. It’s that it was small enough that I could reach all corners of the screen with my thumb.
None of the recent small phones I tried had that advantage. In that case, since there’s no clear usability advantage to the smaller model, I’ll take the larger screen instead.
Bath water … baby ?
I mean, the logical step is to go to Debian sid, which, despite its alternative name unstable, is really not. I’ve been running a gaming rig on it for over a year with nothing more than vey vey minor hiccups, mostly because I’m impatient and run apt full-upgrade frequently.
The problem is that some of the block lists are just too eager on the blocking.
I don’t see how the author can claim that NextDNS or AdGuard are any better in that regard though, as they rely on the same lists. 🤦

Alcohol is a lot worse than “sleep, sloppy fighting and risky driving”.
I have high hopes for Matter but as it stands today it’s a pretty big mess and usability is generally horrible.
“O Brasil é dos brasileiros” soa a xenofobia. Xenofobia nacionalista não é muito melhor que vira-latismo entreguista.
Makes you wonder who approves these layouts.

To answer the question, no - you’re not the only one. People have written and talked about this extensively.
Personally, I think there’s a lot more nuance to the answer. Also a lot has been written about this.
You mention “communities that are security conscious”. I’m not sure in which ways you feel this practice to be less secure than alternatives. I tend to be pretty security conscious, to the point of sometimes being annoying to my team mates. I still use this installation method a lot where it makes sense, without too much worry. I also skip it other times.
Without knowing a bit more about your specific worries and for what kinds of threat you feel this technique is bad, it’s difficult to respond specifically.
Feel is fine, and if you’re uncomfortable with something, the answer is generally to either avoid it (by reading the script and executing the relevant commands yourself, or by skipping using this software altogether, for instance), or to understand why you’re uncomfortable and rationally assess whether that feeling is based on reality or imagination - or to which degree of each.
As usual, the real answer is - it depends.
