GrapheneOS was claiming 5-year support IIRC. Apple level support is infeasible. Not sure how affordable longer firmware support from Qualcomm is.

With Windows you simply have much less problems to solve. Normal people don’t care about jumping through hoops to create local accounts, they’ll just register.

Windows interfaces are designed for easy learning and are backed by real telemetry data from millions of systems, such as ribbon menus. On Linux power users run the show so even blatant violations of basic principles tend to stick since the development version is the shipped version and is what they are used to so UI stability took priority even though it shouldn’t been stabilised in the first place.

Depends on how advanced or niche the use case is. Flatpak and immutable distros covered the most common use for command line, that being package manager.

But Linux will start requiring command line earlier than Windows, random small utilities you’ll find on the internet tend to be command line only on Linux, whilst Windows equivalent usually provides a basic menu.

Fedora is probably the most balanced, being a semi rolling distro.

Everything from the real world found its way in.

Kinda curious why would X11 have that many clipboards to begin with. Different people implemented their personal macros perhaps…?

OpenWrt usually supports a device until it’s infeasible or has no maintainers I believe. Beware of small flash!

Personally I recommend getting either a MediaTek Filogic device or one of those x86 boxes. They have the best FOSS support right now and having ARM A53 cores means you can do QoS at fairly good speed. Don’t expect good Wi-Fi if you went with devboards like OpenWrt One.

Seems like reverse Nazi to me.

The fundamental issue is that the desktops themselves are inferior products. Linux desktop developers spent years arguing which bad solution is better for a solved problem.

The gap is closer now but that’s only because Windows is killing itself.

Matthewmatosis.

Finished Mother 1 from 1989 recently. It’s surprisingly good aside from final mountain encounter rate.

Qubes OS gives him high security with relative ease.

Fedora Silverblue with auto update and Flatseal tightened apps is a nice middle ground.

RHEL minimises supply chain attack risk and provides features like kernel hot patching. He can use free developer subscriptions. Also try SUSE.

Security wise Chromium is a bit better than Firefox. Try to seal it up with SELinux. Red Hat only supports Firefox however.

SecureBlue can be used as a reference, but it’s still downstream so personally I’d avoid using it in case of supply chain attacks unless securing Silverblue is too much of a hassle.

Keep in mind that Flatpak sandbox interferes with browser sandboxes.

Firefox on Desktop. Chrome or Vanadium on Mobile.

Mostly just thinking about streaming services on the eye patch part(seriously, screw region and VPN lock).

Personally I’m not that against ads, the issue is how annoying they often gets, and I have a bad feeling if they are actively seeking maximum ad revenue.

Short-term, absolutely.

Long-term? Bad product experience is why people bought those eye patches, or straight up moved to another platform.
