The world was flooded with SHA256, but why did you have to fork it, there was already Monero! It continues to swim in the slipstream as a parasite.

Good choice! In some regions like Europe, you may have to buy a different currency first and then exchange it for Monero as the next step.

That is beyond my knowledge. As far as I know, it was said that consensus adjustments are possible if they are necessary. You have explained your point of view well, thank you.

TLDR
No. It’s been said and it’s true. As long as the banks have an infinite amount of money at their disposal, it makes no sense. An investor, even a bank itself, could own a large share without having earned it. Monero is fairly distributed from the start.
On the right side of this monero.town lemmy website is a Trocador link.
But since you asked about the best way for beginners, I would like to mention Edge App and Monero.com / Cake Wallet.

If you are a miner yourself, use P2pool.io. It has some advantages over the pools as they used to be known. The decentralization makes it hard to block. Every operator helps. Also, P2pool has no fees or high withdrawal limits. GUPAX makes P2pool very easy if you only want to mine with a single desktop computer.
rideto Monero•Crypto Was Never Meant to Be Controlled — So Why Are We Letting It Happen? 🔓English3·1 month agoWith over 11 years of history, we can now say with certainty that Monero was started by individuals. Over time, autonomous systems, scripts and high-performance computers have also played a part, albeit a small one. As long as we have XMR in our private wallets and use them, we are already participating in the Monero system. Operating a network node ourselves and, at best, connecting our wallets to it is a further step that allows the individual to become a large part of the system. Anyone who also mines with their computer actively participates in the consensus logic and helps the entire network. And anyone who actively participates in the community and tells others about Monero is definitely also an important part of Monero.

Never Meant to Be Controlled — So Why Are We Letting It Happen?
Monero is permissionless. Nobody has to ask to participate in the system. If, for example, Microsoft or Amazon decide to mine XMR on all their instances next week, nobody can or should do anything about it. See it as a accolade if others turn to Monero and, however, take advantage of it and actively use the system.
You are spreading salty untruths. Are you sad now because in this case their communication was obviously not perfect? No problem.
I watched the video. You should view this gentleman’s opinion with skepticism and not share and spread it. It only unsettles technically inexperienced users, who most likely do not increase the security level in the Tor browser anyway. This has been discussed, so the majority of users never adjust the security slider in the Tor browser. And now only the Tor Browser user’s operating systems are recognizable for visited websites. So Linux, Mac, Windows, not every system is always spoofed as Windows anymore. This was a conscious decision by Torproject. You shouldn’t put the opinion of a guy on Youtube above the competence of the developers.

Please remember to use two wallets: One for receiving XMR and another for sending/paying. Only use the wallet for receiving XMR to top up the other payment wallet. The receiving wallet is never used to send to other wallets and the address is never published. - Two Wallets Increase Your Privacy
Cake Wallet is a secure option. Vik Sharma said that there is not a single known case of funds being deliberately frozen that were processed via the wallet. Another official third-party wallet is Edge.app Use these to be safe.
