First of all I would try installing and booting the newest kernel from the backports repo. Your sound device suppport could be fixed there.

Even compared to Slowroll?

Seems that Slackware is what you are looking for.

Windows updates are not entirely new versions of the OS. Its kernel is at version 6 since Vista and did not get any major changes.

Is it still alive? X2go is its FOSS alternative (fork).

Not only kernel, but also many widely used libraries. Including compiler runtimes.

I was asked to report bugs by people without github account several times, so you are wrong.

You can host your project anywhere you want, setup mirroring to github and drop a link in its description. So you'll have github visibility and won't depend on github. Addiitional repo backup is a bonus.

I prefer to follow strict definitions when possible. OSI open source definition and FSF definition of free software in this case.

Also I'm not ready to throw away all software that companies you mentioned conributed to. Did you do this?

Gitlab EE is not a free software but gitlab CE is. Gitea is a free software too. However if you want to stay free, you have to self-host your instances. Even if it is forgejo.

Second.

It means that CVSS is calculated wrong. It can't be so big because default configuration is not affected and attacker requires admin access to change it.
