Though it looks like the lower end ones are out of stock right now. Worth keeping an eye on.

You can get started pretty easily with Podman desktop and kind. Then you have a small self-contained cluster to mess around with, that also functions as a dev environment. Another option, and how I first learned, was with free credits from GCP. I realize this is self-hosted, just providing options for learning..
I've always liked Digital Ocean tutorials for getting stuff done. This one shows you how to deploy some things and links out to official documentation for further details: https://k8s-ops.net/posts/getting-started-with-kubernetes-digitalocean/
These are also good free tutorials: https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/devops/kubernetes-tutorial/
Once you are comfortable with kubectl and basic deployments, then look into helm.
I host and use it as my default search on all devices. Bare metal deployment. The maintenance is pretty low, I just run the instance update script from to time.
Results have been worse lately, I think it needs some tuning in regards to weights and what engines are in use.
You can upload potential threats to https://www.virustotal.com/gui/home/upload
There are/were vulnerabilities that are zero click, but in this case I imagine they are just banking on people clicking it in this case. If you're not familiar xvideos is a porn site.
I think you are probably fine as you were running windows defender. It might be a good idea to do a manual full scan and perhaps refresh your browser.
I meant in the context of the VPN. It slows down the network for everyone on one which is run by donation. For commercial companies, it incentivizes them to further lock down what users can do or what speeds they get.
You can get into private trackers and trust them. Not recommended, but some do.
Generally speaking, the copyright trolls only target public trackers and DHT. There have been some instances of them making way into TL and others. Your ISP could also identify torrenting on private trackers if they wanted to, even with mitigations. In my experience and from what I hear, most ISPs do not go to these lengths.
So, there a risk doing the above. Whether or not it's worth it until you can afford a decent VPN is up to you.
Aside: Please do not use a free VPN for torrenting (or tor, for that matter). They are either like RiseUp and run on donations for people who really, really need them, or Proton which is commercial and specifically try to block or slow down the traffic. Either way, if ruins it for everyone else.
You could install a version of ffmpeg-full locally, just for your user, with a different name. I do this for x265-mod-patman-git. It's available as x265-mod and doesn't conflict with anything.
Outside of the coreutils and builtins, I use git a lot for work, school, and otherwise. I prefer the simplicity and speed over a graphical client.
btop is probably one of my favourites, really easy and nice way to visualize the system status.
Like many others, I switched to Jellyfin years ago. It is way, way better for me. It does what it says on the tin, sometimes more, but not less.
I wrote this little webapp thing some time ago. It's not exactly what you asked for but is a good example.
All it does is base64 encode a link and adds the server url in front of it. When someone visits that link it will redirect them to the destination. The intent is to bypass simple link tracking / blocking in discord and other platforms.
There are also checks for known bad domains and an attempt to remove known tracking query parameters.

Edit: I forgot to add it also blocks known crawlers (at least at time of writing) so that they can't just follow the 302 and figure out where it goes.
I always use veracrypt for stuff like this. You can encrypt a whole device or partition. It will appear like random data without veracrypt and your password.
You can have a second unencrypted partition with veracrypt portable or installers on it, but this is theoretically a security risk.

I've been using zed, it has solid python integration and is way faster than vscode (oss or otherwise). I believe python debugging is supported now, but it's not quite as advanced as PyCharm.
