It does not even provide security fixes to unpayed users for two years. Except for few "base" packages. BTW is php a "base" package in ubuntu?

What do you mean by editing DHCP? Having a static IP address means you don't need DHCP at all.
Really? I supposed that I'm too conservative for still using cmake. But seems there's a reason for that. ☺
Well, seriously, I don't like meson because it does some things another way than more traditional tools for no reason. Sometimes this is painful, especially when cross compiling. Seems that it was originally designed without cross compilation in mind unlike cmake.
Maybe. But maybe they did nothing because there was no ./configure script and you had to use another tool, e. g. one of that I mentioned, so you need to learn another shit.
BTW installing anything from source like this is the right way only in (B)LFS.
But you definitely don't need to learn this if you are a developer and starting a new project in 2024. You can use cmake or write plain makefiles, even shell scripts if you want, but as you value life or your reason keep away from the autotools. It is a nightmare to debug thousands lines of scripts they generate and put into your source tree.
Autocrap is a bloated obsolete stuff that is mostly replaced with other tools like cmake or meson. There's no need to learn it today.
Any distro you are comfortable with.
I guess it can be NetworkManager if it is used to configure the interface but the route is added manually.
There's nothing special, it can be replaced with any TOTP/HOTP implementation. In particular, oathtool is supplied in most distros (it has only command line interface, probably there are also some GUI tools in your repos). However it does not support JSON key format that is provided as QR code for mobile 2FA apps. You have to copy and paste values from it manually.
However this will likely violate your employer's security policy. The point of 2FA is that secret key is stored on a separate device, so that it cannot be stealed together with your password.
I recommend to try other Android apps on your phone. I use FreeOTP+ and have no problems with font readability. Some of my collegues use AndOTP and like it.
the .deb file would be the equivalent of an .exe file on Windows
Not .exe. If you want to find an equivalent, .msi is the closest.
Any reason to register an account instead of installing Debian?
