I would prefer this. And even without federation it's a very good Stack Whatever replacement already.

While those are valid concerns, it's not really hard to see why people use VPNs. Just look at how companied and countries abuse the internet, abuse us.

The only use case for Appimages
If users want to carry applications around on a thumbdrive, or run on a fully immutable system like TAILS, Appimages may be needed. But this is the only target, and it is not a standard use case.

I guess I agree. This is precisely the case where I have ever used them. Namely to have a portable executable of my password manager on a stick together with a backup of the password database.

I had no idea they were being used elsewhere.

Robot vacuums. Some of them you can root and install the opensource Valetudo.

This reminds me of QT's signal/slot system. I.e. instead of calling functions directly, you just emit a signal and then any number of functions may have the receiving slot enabled.

Lot's of similar systems in other frameworks too I'm sure.

If markdown fulfills your formatting needs, then there's no beating it in terms of focus and simplicity. Use whatever text editor you like. My recommendation would be Kate. It supports previewing the rendered document in side by side view.

I'm a shell user too, but as a programming language I would rate Bash utter garbage. Fine for little piping but for longer scripts I will be reaching for Haskell.

There's also Brewtarget.
