No DRM Protection means no HD, High bit rate streaming

Is that actually a thing? Firefox has a drm button toggle and prime worked fine last time I used it.

poorly written code and tight code

This is where you guys lose me, it's just code that not optimized for size and that's because most people don't give a shit about that. People want want their 4k assets, their localization, their accessibility features, their application to run on any device... All this comes at a cost. You want to change things, that's fine, but start by understanding why things are the way they are because shitting on developers won't get you anywhere.

Firefox knows the difference though, it won't pull your passwords or login cookies. But yeah, it's very easy to fall for phishing attempts, I just never click on anything sent in a mail to be safe.

Arch is designed to take up your free time by making you build everything from scratch

That's a weird take, arch provides repositories ootb and is meant to be used with pacman, you're maybe confusing with gentoo?

I've had librewolf specific bugs absent in firefox, definitely not a strict upgrade.

The problem about being active, is that the moment you stop you'll put the weight right back on. Most people don't take up going to the gym for decades, it'll last a few months, maybe a few years. Long term weight management needs to be about food intake.

You really want to deal with wine through another layer like lutris if you're new to wine. Lutris doesn't just bring a different wine version, it brings environment variables, dxvk... Wine alone does not work well, it needs to be setup.

It's little grievances that eventually pile up and one day you'll just have had enough and switch.

It's more complicated than that, distros typically have specific patches for packages and they assume you're running a particular kernel version. By running another kernel version you're going into unsupported territory. Yeah you can do that, and it'll probably be fine, but using another distro that actually supports the edge kernel is less risky and takes a few less clicks.

They do. Linux mint is great for office work and opening firefox. If you want a gaming distro i'd use something closer to the edge like fedora / endeavour os.
