What are some challenges in learning web development on Ubuntu?

I have everything working for learning front-end web development using VSCodium.

I'm currently learning back-end stuff like nodejs, npm, and Express.

What are some challenges coming my way as far as getting things to work on Ubuntu?

Is Google Chrome sandboxed by default on Linux?

I already know that it's spyware but in the case that I need to use it for work and school on my Linux laptop, do I need to worry about configuring something so that it won't have access to my whole system like it does on Windows? I'm on ZorinOS/Ubuntu. Thanks in advance

Friends and family won't switch to private messaging apps or phones. Is there a point in avoiding Google Messages app?
  • It did that to me also. As soon as i tapped Agree, i saw that it had more permissions enabled.

    If I was installing it again, I'd try turning off network access before tapping Agree but I'm not sure if this would work.

    edit On GrapheneOS you can use scopes and decide which contacts it has access to.

    They all have iPhones and Google Android. Since all my calls and text messages are monitored on their phones, am I causing any additional harm to myself by using Google Messages on GrapheneOS? That way I could at least use RCS messaging.

    Thoughts on the Brax 3 phone?

    Supposedly, he sells out of his phones but I haven't seen any review or unboxing videos for the Brax 3. I know that you can ask for iodeOS or Ubuntu touch.

    What will "Sign In With Google" do?

    If I created a Udemy account with my Gmail, then what's the difference between signing in with email and signing in with Google? Thanks in advance.
