I don't like GNOME, but I've honestly had consistently worse experiences with Cinnamon.

Yep, which also explains why a distro that comes with Cinnamon won...

Apt repos are like that for several reasons, one of which is that it allows DNS based mirroring without having to share a certificate. Another is that back when apt started out, HTTPS was pretty rare.

Centralising around Flathub seems to me like it defeats the point of flatpak being able to have multiple repositories.

Looks like it's a fork of Puppet.

I've done this before by packaging it in a snap. No filesystem access except its own snap directory, no network access because I didn't request it in the snapcraft.yaml, but yes GPU and audio access through the desktop plug.

I would also be interested in a defence of capitalism that doesn't come down to "but the USSR" or similar.

Many electron apps will break because they install some executables into ~/. config

So double win!

Depends on the use case. Definitely for my laptop though. In fact the decryption keys only exist in two places:

  1. Inside my TPM
  2. In a safe deposit box at a bank.

I have yet to find a distro that doesn't run my favourite game

You can run 5g on unlicensed spectrum too, and there are fully open source 5g stacks. The primary issue there is that most phones don't have the hardware to connect to those networks. But the same is true right now of wifi on 900 MHz.
