Afaik most such Reddit alternatives support RSS feeds, so a RSS reader could be an option.
My previous main instance got a pretty bad case of ded. 🥲

I prefer psychological horror over jumpscares by a long shot, so my recommendations are a bit slower than what people may recommend, but if it strikes your and your wife’s fancy, here are them:
Dreaming Sarah, Wishing Sarah, Tanglewood, Parasite Eve, Wake Up (by Philosophic Games), UNLOVED, The Corruption Within.

To my knowledge, besides the newest updates not necessarily being as stable, but also, other softwares that interact with it would need time to adapt themselves to be sure they’re as compatible as they were before. In a situation of constant updates, other software would always be on a situation of catching up, whereas updates that take a bit longer to land allow “for the dust to set down”.
About gaming, from my personal experience, it’s overall pretty straight forward. When issues happen, you just got to have patience to read through logs and search up on Google or similar any suspicious parts of the log. Worst part is usually DRM/anticheat, but from what I can gather, usually pretty isolated cases are problematic due to compatibility, usually requiring the devs to go out of their ways to make the DRM incompatible.
As for the distros question, perhaps Linux Mint? It trades off bleeding edge updates for the sake of stability. Just avoid the Debian-based variant of Mint for now as it’s still in beta.
Just remembered Ublock Origin filters also work nice with fediverse sites, although I would prefer to completely purge posts with links I avoid.
But for those curious, here’s an example filter I just cooked:
lemm.ee##a[class="fst-italic link-dark link-opacity-75 link-opacity-100-hover"]:has-text(here_goes_the_domain_as_displayed_under_the_post_title):upward(div[class="post-listing mt-2"])
So as an hypothetical example, if for some reason I have a problem with the sh.itjust.works
instance, I could make this:
lemm.ee##a[class="fst-italic link-dark link-opacity-75 link-opacity-100-hover"]:has-text(sh.itjust.works):upward(div[class="post-listing mt-2"])
And it ends up looking like this:

Filter active on the left, and not active on the right.
Look for games that are sold DRM free. Those can’t be taken from you by devs or the store after backed up. And usually devs and/or stores that deliberately sell such games also make it clear people can keep their games.
From the instances I used, it seems to be a mixed bag. Some even allowed for the user to block domains unrelated to the fediverse.
Was commenting more generally, in case there’s someone against Facebook in instances that don’t block them.
And about lemm.ee, although the guy running it is strongly against defederation, I guess Facebook the company is too much even for him. "<.<
Blocking everyone and every community you see from Facebook’s new parasite social media could be good, me thinks.
Both tools can be used from the terminal like most Linux programs, which should also give you better control during troubleshooting and also in the rarer cases of having to set up/run some more temperamental games. There are also graphical programs that handle Wine/Proton in a more friendly way, such as Heroic Launcher, Lutris and, specifically for Proton, Steam itself.
Maybe this helps?

I use it on PC, and from what I just tested on my phone, it seems to work fine.
Some times it’s part of the plot, like in comics such as Gwenpool and 8-Bit Theater. But usually, from what I notice, how a character perceives the world around is not explained.
Unfamiliar with it, but in the regard of instances going down, specially after my previous main instance died with no signs of returning (again), if you find any interesting posts even on instances seemingly stable, I think it is a good idea to back up those pages. Personally, I would propose methods like Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine and its alternatives like Archive Today, the print to PDF option from browsers, and/or saving a given page as a MHTML bundle.
If, by 100%, it includes 100% of the achievements/trophies, I can only remember Mary Skelter Nightmares¹, Odin Sphere Leifthrasir and Starbound as games I still enjoy after doing 100%.
¹og version; dunno if the updated version bundled with Mary Skelter 2 has trophies (didn’t stop me from finishing it on the Switch, though e.e")
Found something: Apparently Recochoku occasionally sells music videos, but the store is blocked outside of Japan.
The issue could be at least mitigated if they allowed people to set their own servers independent of World of Warcraft’s own servers. =/
Yeah, things like interest of the right holders, contractual limitations and availability of a given media do play a part on getting published on a given platform.
Other than GOG’s withering “movies” section, I only remember of two that aren’t overly niche, DLsite and Fakku (both mainly porn stores). Maybe Itunes’ videos are DRM free, but I haven’t tested and still it would break the “no app” condition since it’s required for payment and download. Also maybe Itchio and Gumroad have something on videos too, since they don’t limit the types of media allowed there, but I have yet to confirm.
