If you're looking for "camera" drones (not DIY acrobatic or racing drones), DJI is unfortunately the only real option these days. The Neo is around $300 without the controller. Don't expect stellar performance in wind, though.
Autel, Parrot, and Skydio have all moved out of consumer segments into professional, industrial, and governmental.
Lithium batteries must have some charge, otherwise they break down chemically. Typically, it's around 40-50% charge, but varies with the exact chemistry of the battery.
And, yes, higher charge means more violent reaction to fire and being punctured for most lithium battery chemistries.
I'm not sure about other chemistries, like NiMH and sodium, that have been used in EVs. But lithium is the most popular.
Well, I guess I'll be disabling my Telegram account finally. The only thing left that I was doing on it was automatic notifications from the services on my home NAS. Not sure what I'll do instead. Maybe Matrix?
So, after a decade or more of Mozilla trying to distance itself from developing and financing Thunderbird, they decide it's actually super important again? Sigh.
Not sure about your situation specifically, but restaurants requiring a credit card during reservation is on the rise to combat reservation scalping and the no-shows that res scalping causes.

If I'm counting correctly, 34 countries with unrestricted birthright citizenship, and 40 with restricted.

I wouldn't consider a consumer-grade router that doesn't have OpenWRT support. No arbitrary EOL to worry about. I was very happy with OpenWRT until I moved to OPNsense router and Ubiquiti access points. I still use it on my travel router, too.
Edit: Check if your current router is supported by OpenWRT and get more life out of it.
You can thank to phenylephrine's placebo effect for your improvements:

Note: Some people do feel better on placebos than on nothing. It's a quark of the human brain. So, if it's working for you, don't switch. Or, maybe try pseudoephedrine and feel even better...
Ok, cool. That's more my speed.
If you want to build a camera platform, a build with Ardupilot software or maybe iNav are your best options. They have very specific hardware requirements, though. Ardupilot has pretty exhaustive documentation, though.
If you want to get into racing or acrobatics, you can get either build an FPV quad from parts, or buy a "bind-n-fly" (BNF) -- Joshua Bardwell on Youtube is probably the place to start learning. You can get a tiny quad, called a tiny whoop, to fly around inside the house. If you want to do non-FPV, you basically just build an FPV quad but ignore the video system.
Be warned, DIY drones is a huge hobby.
