Oh no, somebody who might be Russian took a family vacation to go fishing with their loved ones!? What an orgy of indulgence! The audacity!

These fuckers should just release digital first, and physical comes when it's done being printed and distributed. This anxiety over "oh no a finished game got leaked early" is manufactured drama. If the game is done, then it doesn't matter when it gets released, except for artificial marketing angst. Make a good game that players want, and it'll be purchased. Eventually. It doesn't have to all happen at exactly the predicted moment.
This kind of confusion illustrated by Telegram users is exactly why it was the right thing to do for privacy when Signal removed support for SMS because it's not encrypted. People still whine endlessly about it, but most users are not very savvy, and they'll assume "this app is secure" and gleefully send compromised SMS to each other. All the warnings and UI indicators that parts of the app were less secure (or not at all in the case of SMS) would be ignored by many users, resulting in an effectively more dangerous app. Signal was smart to remove those insecure features entirely.
I disagree, that's an ideal time to exert labor leverage and make it more obvious to executive turds that workers have solidarity with each other.
Give it a shot again, something changed recently in Proton (I assume) that made Vortex "just work" for me on my Steam Deck. I didn't even need to do any fiddling, I just ran the installer exe from desktop mode using Lutris and whatever Proton was latest, and it installed perfectly. Vortex now runs entirely as expected, even from game mode.
Looking through their comment history, they proclaim their honesty quite often, it's pretty funny when you're looking for it 😆
I've now tagged them so I'll remember that they are very honest:
Both owned by Google, unfortunately, so not a surprise I guess.
What I've done in the past is to copy the URL of the unavailable video (if it's still accessible via the playlist entry, sometimes it isn't which is annoying) and feed it into the Wayback Machine in the hopes that it got archived at some point. The video stream isn't usually available that way, but at least the page title sometimes is, and then I can search for other versions of it.
As far as I know, Firefox Mobile doesn't have a bottom toolbar so I'm not really sure what you are referring to there (at least, there's no bottom toolbar in Firefox on Android where I'm using it), and the notification/battery area is definitely not part of Firefox. It sounds like your phone's system UI is providing those elements, and it's likely not really fair to blame problems with the system UI on Firefox.
How do you mean? I've been using it for a couple of months now and aside from one website (my bank) everything I've tried to do with it has been perfectly fine. It even has adblock and videos play in the background. I've also not seen any issues with dark mode; I'm using dark mode right now, actually.

Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be anything better than Calibre at the moment. (Though, I'm happy to be proven wrong!) Nothing against Calibre, it's functionally amazing free software and it works very well; I said "unfortunately" because the interface is extremely dated and clunky and confusing to operate. Once you get it working, it's very nice though. As long as you never have to go fiddling with it again, because every time you've gotta reacquaint with it's weird UI. Still, it really is the best available at the moment, and it's free so that's awesome.
My favorite way to set it up is using the linuxserver image, which has a web-based VNC built into it, so you can remotely run the app on a headless server and then use your browser to interact with it.
I have Calibre configured to monitor a folder for new stuff I throw into it, where it'll automatically fetch metadata and put it into the database. Calibre also has an OPDS server built in, to which I point a nicer frontend for reading comics. Currently that is Kavita which provides a decent web UI for both books and comics.
Anyhow, I believe you could enter data about your physical comics into the Calibre database, and then view the metadata with something like Kavita, though of course you'd be skipping the reading features.
