Solved by running Amazon Linux. Please feel free to explain!

I think the way it works is you don't unless upstream is co-operative or you're prepared to maintain the fork

For me that means I use something else that's a bit more unix-like rather than systemd-lockin-like. Heck even Luke Smith who has never been that bothered about inits is freaking :-)

I don't understand what needs explanation? That thread I understand is about which OSes you run which are not Debian.
I never claimed Ami 2 should be used for security. I just use it for a few containerized apps and sometimes as a DAAS for better internet speed. You can't beat Aws backbone in terms of internet speed and low latency.

You can't moan about security when running an OS that you have no way of checking if it's secure.

where did I moan about security? Are you hallucinating? I can very well secure my systems it's not an issue for me.

I've had success running Zoom in a QEMU/KVM virtual machine with the camera passed through (gnome-boxes has an option for that). The video flickered for one of the sessions but it usually worked flawlessly.
