Lovely, so I can officially claim I use a standard that is required by many commenters here if I just hash random bytes! Should I use a NIST-approved standard or maybe GOST hash function will work? Can I use the output of ChaCha20? If so, I'll be happy to read 16 bytes from /dev/urandom.
The third one however sounds like a potential mess.
Thanks for your analysis!

Stop pretending that you don't understand what a cryptological hash function is, or that using a strong crypto function is the same as rolling your own, or that using the hash function on your input is the same as running it on random bytes. > Thanks for your analysis! Thanks for the anecdotal evidence.
