I play with cryptography.
That which is not good for the swarm,
neither is it good for the bee.
~ Marcus Aurelius
If you are a single-instance or small instance cryptology junky then you know what to do.
I like to play life like a numbers game.

XFCE is more user-friendly. LXDE is really fast and responsive on older hardware. KDE is extremely buggy. You might get one stable release then the next update will usually introduce annoying breakages. Gnome is a memory hog and IMHO is only suitable for large touch interfaces. Cosmic desktop is experimental and I won’t even bother with it if it is not in Debian stable repos.
Vanity distros with “improved” window managers or desktop environments usually have more bugs than upstream stock Debian. Even Debian, which is an excellent server OS, has annoying bugs in the popular desktop environments. Vanity distros tend to more bugs. They also tend to change default configurations and file locations so users have a tougher time troubleshooting.
You can configure XFCE to look any way you want it to. You can also get a zillion themes at https://www.xfce-look.org.
If you want a fast and stable desktop experience try Debian XFCE and install PekWM and lxappearance for theming. In my opinion PekWM it is the best-designed window manager in existence.
PekWM also eliminates the ugly and non-uniform custom title bars we’ve been seeing with gnome applications, enforcing a truly uniform look for all windows.
1st choice: Debian XFCE version.
2nd choice: Debian PekWM for resource efficiency and uniform look.
3rd choice: Debian LXDE version for old, slow computers.
4th choice: Debian OpenBox for ultimate resource efficiency.

Akkoma: https://akkoma.social/
Friendica: https://friendi.ca/
With Friendica you can run public and private groups so your meat space friends can converse outside of public view while still participating in public spaces.
If you want really private with direct connections instead of servers, with everything encrypted and hidden from public view see:
Briar: https://briarproject.org/ … (desktop and android)
RetroShare: https://retroshare.cc/ … (desktop and android)
If you want private only with the option to federate, you might prefer something XMPP-based:
Movim: https://movim.eu/
You can also set up a bulletin board or image board and require authentication to view the site.
