The irony being that some Linux users fear change (or at least fight it tooth and nail) more than any other computer user.

Autodesk Maya actually has a Linux version. I was surprised to learn this.

I don't. I just like Linux.

Ubuntu is fine. Pop!_OS if you're set on Flatpaks instead of Snaps.

Eh, X11 Forwarding, VNC, SSH, XRDP, Waypipe whatever, it's all very similar

Wow, this is actually fairly technical unlike うぶんちゅ. SSH and X11 forwarding in the first chapter. By chapter 4 we're already exiting Vim.

Now that's a find! I've been looking for something similar to read after うぶんちゅ！

You can get the manga officially from here in its original form: https://www.aerialline.com/comics/ubunchu/

It's licensed under CC-BY NC 3.0 and the author includes the original photoshop files if you want to edit them.

It's pretty funny. I own a physical copy.

I didn't say they were. Hence the second link.

That was my first thought upon finding it. It's really hard to find though, even if you know the name of it.

For checksums: https://github.com/flathub/flathub/issues/1498#issuecomment-649098123

Flatpak does verify the integrity of files as it is downloading/installing them. For ostree remotes this is done using GPG signatures (which are better than mere checksums). If you want to see the commit ID (which is like a checksum) for something on flathub use e.g. flatpak remote-info -c flathub org.gnome.Builder and for the local copy flatpak info -c org.gnome.Builder. For OCI remotes we at least check SHA256 sums and there might be more integrity verification mechanisms I'm unaware of.

But for signatures: https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak-builder/issues/435

There's also Pied, which hasn't gotten around to submitting to Flathub.
