I feel like this is missing the forest for the trees. Elon was basically buying votes with his lottery, which there’s already laws against. It doesn’t show that we need “Campaign Finance Reform”, it shows that there’s a class of people who are above the law
I LOVE MANAGING DEPENDENCIES WITH apt AND BUILDING FROM SOURCE
trying to fix speech issues on your own can make things worse in some cases. If
Just remember the golden rule: nothing with your voice is supposed to hurt. If it hurts, then stop
OP, I have the same problem and I recently made a ton of progress! Two things helped. First, I started humming almost all the time. I can’t carry a tune, and it feels pretty silly. I was very self conscious about it at first, but it has really helped so much with producing sounds. Before all the humming, I never really knew what my voice would sound/feel like before I started talking. But now, it’s like I always have that preview thanks to the humming.
The second thing that really helped is something I’m really lucky for. I live with a very supportive friend, and I told them that I would be making more noise and trying to talk to them more in general.
Oh, also apparently acid reflux was an issue too.
I still am not very good at knowing what to say, but at least producing the sounds has gotten so much easier
Just remember: practice is good, as long as you’re not straining/hurting yoyr voice!

I’ve used ubuntu on and off for years. They have a history of questionable choices. Like making users opt out of Amazon searches. Or using unity. or abandoning unity. The most recent thing that made me switch was forcing snap packages on me, which would then be annoying with updates. I switched to debian stable with gnome and flatpak, and haven’t missed anything about ubuntu since.
It’s still a fine distro. The Amazon thing was the only egregious problem IMO
