I still use reddit for purposes ranging from getting solutions to pastimes. Same for discord. There are a few communities on it that I need to be connected, most notably dev related.
What suggestions would you guys make? Are there any bridges/frontend I could use to get more privacy?
Yes.
An example of such a DIY container would be: Alpine base + Librewolf + Script to install necessary extensions in Librewolf and configure them + Guacamole as a VNC server. Or maybe just configuring X-forwarding (does that work with Podman) will do.
Is it yes to both questions?
I think they are talking about docker containers.
