I have my runs on Garmin Connect with "only me" visibility by default, and I "unlock" individual activities manually when I want to share a link to them. I am also not following anyone there - I basically ignore all the social elements of the app.
I've been toying with switching to a self-hosted alternative, but haven't found a good enough one. The closest I found to what I'd be willing to use is https://github.com/SamR1/FitTrackee.
Same here. I keep shaking my head in disbelief when I read all this "you need this custom niche distro if you want nvidia without problems" posts, and then look at my totally uncustomized Debian Stable PC, on which I've been playing modern games for many years now. :)
Really, the only trouble I've had was not Nvidia related at all - in the very beginning when Steam Linux client was released, Debian had too old glibc, and I had to resort to LD_LIBRARY_PATH/LD_PRELOAD tricks with glibc snatched from an Ubuntu package. But next Debian release fixed even that, and it's been smooth sailing ever since.
I tried that back when I was only getting into running. If I recall correctly, I kept it up for a little over a week before I overloaded my achilles heel and had to stop running for a month. Since then, I'm only doing occasional shorter streaks, e.g. when on organized runners' camp or retreats.
Running every second day is easier for logistics, especially the laundry! :)
You should worry, but not to extent that it would keep you from running completely.
You need to learn proper running style/technique, find shoes that work for you, and most importantly, pace yourself, depending on your fitness and weight. Don't overdo it.
It's worth it to find a good trainer in your area and start under a professional guidance - if only for a first few months.
Yep, Mastodon takes some effort to get going. You need to find people who are interesting for you yourself, in order to seed your feed with interesting stuff. And it goes much smoother if you also interact yourself, which is where many lurkers, used to Twitter and its algorithm feeding them content, hit a wall. It's just a completely different world in there.

I would add a simple exercise of static single leg balancing with closed eyes. Great for ankle and calf strength, as well as overall balance.
It's amazing how much we rely on eyesight for our balance.
