The real answer to a good Android alternative is probably not another android fork, but another Linux distro, like SailfishOS that the Jolla Phone ships with: https://commerce.jolla.com/products/jolla-phone-sep-ii-2026 It has support for Android apps though, so you can still use your bank app (probably), but it runs them in sandboxes

I’m not sure exactly. It could be related to how the AT protocol also takes account information into federation, but I’m just speculating here

The big added benefit is that its federated using the AT protocol. So while you join a local instance (or, knot), or even set one up yourself, you still get all the benefits that GitHub currently provides around making coding social and discoverable, unlike other alternatives like forgejo. So it’s not doing anything to git itself, but rather the layer on top, the forge

Essentially this. You don’t need fancy or expensive equipment to start, and you can replace parts as you go about. However, do avoid the all-in-one mobile players from brands like Lenco and Denver. They put really poor quality parts in there that can hurt your records. But anything above that is already good enough

Everything that lives dies, eventually

The EU is not a single country, so it would be helpful to know which country they’re going to

The ielts website has all of that covered already https://ielts.org/take-a-test/preparation-resources

Cash. Every transaction will be online, so it can be tracked

Train was (is still?) quite big in Netherlands at least. Drops of Jupiter and Hey, Soul Sister topped the charts

Unfortunately I can report that Shania Twain scored a couple of big hits this side of the pond

I recently bought a Pioneer PD-F905 101 CD player. It’s 30 years old and I absolute love it. It needed a lot of cleaning (mostly nicotine and tar), but after that it worked like a charm again

Scouting helped me a lot with this. It’s an active community, and not just for kids. And it’s worldwide, so wherever you go, there’s a community you can visit, or recognize

On the outside it’s sold as security, but what you really get is surveillance

Not amateurish at all, but good questions. I’m not confident enough to answer your second question, but on your first question: yes, you can use the hosting service you already have. Given that you are renting a VPS that is. It looks like Strato is calling this “hosting”. Don’t use their “WordPress hosting” package for this though, as it won’t allow you to install the instance software.
