Checking the amount of money (Bitcoin) you could have saved isn't really important as it doesn't really help in determining the best fee to use in your next transaction since bitcoins transaction fees isn't a fixed fee.
It is better to use the fee you know would go through than trying to minimise transaction costs and having a failed transaction.

The rate at which people trust programmes just because it's on GitHub is surprising, many hackers will take this to their advantage and hide dangerous codes within programmes because they know most people won't bother to check.

Most wallets store the private key on your device storage so asking them not to use such wallets means they only have the option of a hardware wallet or exchange wallet and storing your funds on an exchange wallet is even more dangerous and only people with very huge funds would want to go for the hardware wallet.

Since they mentioned it in their terms and conditions (t&c) then it's the user that's at fault, most people don't bother reading terms and conditions because it can take hours to finish reading the terms and conditions of most sites.
If the user didn't want to be tracked and doesn't mind paying a little fee then he/she should have sent the funds to an exchange then convert it to another currency then withdraw the currency he exchanged it to and deposit it on another exchange to convert it back to the original currency he needs. Since exchanges use contract address then the funds should be very hard or even impossible to track.

The reason why newbies are criticised is that newbie is the lowest rank on the forum and there are lots of spammers on the internet who just want to promote their links or a Ponzi scheme thereby registering on different forums spamming them with unwanted posts and since newbie is the lowest rank on this forum all the people who Signup with intent to spam are newbies so when anyone sees a post made by a newbie they either ignore it or criticize it.

Checking a shortlink every single time before visiting it can be a very stressful process, I use my browser to save the passwords of sites I visit so anytime I follow a shortlink and it asks me to login and my login details doesn't autofill I crosscheck the url or i open a new tab and type the URL myself.

Airdrops and bounties are still the easiest way to earn cryptocurrencies but that doesn't make it a get rich scheme, what happens to most newbies is that they partake in different airdrops and bounties without making research about the project thereby partaking in scam airdrops and bounties whereas some have a site or social media channel/page that does the research about the project but the newbies dump it immediately it gets listed.

It's not possible to earn money with Bitcoin without any knowledge or skills except from maby airdrops and bounties. Unless you would like to join Ponzi and pump and dump schemes which is very risky.

I think this topic should be moved to beginners and help.
Anyway always check the Satoshi difference of a coin against Bitcoin and not only the price.

There are lots of topics about the technological and monetary aspects of Bitcoin on this forum you just have to look at the right place. Bitcoin is a part of blockchain technology which is a new and innovative technology it's the technological aspects of Bitcoin that makes people want to invest in it, if Bitcoin was just like the regular currency it won't have gotten as much fame and investors as it currently has.

This shouldn't be a big deal, any ATM can be robbed if the operators aren't careful and off the ATM isn't in a secured location. There is hardly any ATM that doesn't have CCTV camera so if this one doesn't have one then the operators are to blame.
