Linux Mint has a smooth, out-of-your-way look & feel to either MATE or Cinnamon that just makes me feel at home

Oh yeah, and some things like petrol are calculated to fractions of a cent as well
if they don’t then they’re not customer focused and your business (money) goes elsewhere.
Yeah, let’s NOT pay taxes! /s
Unless you’re talking about the bank, in that case they’re literally here asking for a good alternative bank.
I’ve never had this, at best that Mint refused to update the kernel if it was full but never booting issues
I can imagine it’d affect statistics enough to see a clear change
I believe the Steam Deck would be a significant portion of the Linux desktops, but Steam’s survey might be a biased source, still
Oh that is a good point, why didn’t I think of that!
Oh absolutely!
You can also easily set specific sites’ cookies not to be wiped, I use this to have websites I trust to store my data for convenience, but any random tracker-infested blog to forget me as soon as the browser closes!
And also, Mullvad Browser does this by default, as well. I think theirs can’t even be configured on a per-site basis.
Yeah, they’re like 80% the same idea at the very least
How does the make it non free from corporate influence.
Do they require Discord and depend on it? Yes.
Is Discord corporate? Yes.
Are they then still free from corporate influence? Nope.
H
Simply put, if Discord suddenly implemented weird rules the Ladybird devs would have to comply with, they’d simply have to follow suit or break their main communication channel.

I mean, their console is pretty good, and sparked the innovation of a completely new console type (with the Steam Deck and a few others following suit)
It’s their prices, and more-so their business practices, that gets people to pirate. Hell, they’ll pirate the great games on their hardware, but they’ll pirate!
I will say, one difference between Nintendo and other game console manufacturers, is that they do innovate more and make incredibly well-polished games as far as large game developers go
But yeah, screw their Disney/Apple/WotC-esque business practices
In all seriousness, I think government bodies switching to Linux (UK’s, China’s, some Indian states’) attributes the most to this.
Same, there must be a percent or so of Windows actually being Linux instead.
Sounds like they hacked (out of) the box
Honestly, you’ll be lucky if you can get past any bootloader issues on a Samsung.
It was honestly trivial to wipe Samsung’s and install LineageOS on a Galaxy Note 10+ and a Galaxy Tab 7. The bootloader isn’t much of an issue.
Now, getting a random Linux system to install, rather than an Android system designed for these, sounds live a huge challenge.
I agree planning around it is stupid, but I don’t see how that affects computer programs.
(let me clarify, this seems like an everyone-issue, rather than a developer-issue)
It’s a flatpak (and snap and appimage) thing; you only install it for a user by default, not for the whole system.
