Literally the only reason I’ve ever used it is so that when I start typing a web address in front of someone, Google doesn’t “helpfully” autocomplete.
Aren’t there any other sites that start with p or x?

It’s not a headrest. It’s whiplash protection.
Self hosting a VPN isn’t going to help hide traffic from your ISP though. Even if you “self host” on a cloud instance or rack elsewhere, you’ve still got ISPs there who will see all your traffic. Unless there’s some other magic implied that I’ve overlooked?
If the resolution is high enough, readers of comics, newspaper, magazines, textbooks, children’s books, maps, etc.
I sick of seeing Google Drive recommended as an alternative to dropbox. (Because I am looking for an alternative to dropbox and so far nothing has feature parity with it and the features I value.) If an app forces me to be logged in to a graphical environment locally on Linux then it has already failed to understand why people use *nix. Google Drive doesn’t keep offline copies and it doesn’t work on CLI. So basically useless on my server. If the files aren’t natively and transparently accesible as a local filesystem while they are synced to the cloud, it’s not a viable Linux Dropbox alternative. I want my files on my machine and a copy on the cloud, not the other way round.
Yeah that competition really did demonstrate what an awful service all those media monopolies provided.
