I imagine it will, as that's sort of the point of the sovereign tech fund, it's meant to fund open source projects so that moves like this can happen.

It's frustrating because there are a few people I like, like John Green, who are on threads but not the rest of the fediverse

I don't have any advice, but I just wanted to confirm I have the same issue sometimes with my laptop running fedora.

I use a Zenbook 14 (an old one though from 2017) and I've not had audio issues on fedora since I made the switch to Linux last year. One thing I do still have issues with is sometimes it fails to sleep/suspend correctly. This isn't a consistent issue though and it seems to be a gamble on if each update will fix it or make it worse. Still not been a big enough issue to make me stop using Linux.

But yeah to answer your question, I've had no audio issues on my Zenbook 14 (other than a slight popping type noise when audio starts playing when I use headphones)

What is shady about Ghostery?

Retractions are important in case issues with the method are found after publication. For example, if it turns out a piece of equipment was improperly calibrated and so the results can't be trusted, a retraction of any work based on those results would be expected.
