Ghost is open source. You can selfhost. It's just that aggressively advertising their (paid) hosting services on the official website

If you don't want to do that, then you can buy a bootable drive (for example here: https://www.shoplinuxonline.com/mint21-usb.html)

Using a different tool to create a bootable drive is just a part of installing any operating system, not just Linux. If you ever need to install windows on a pc that doesn't have it installed you will see the same process.

They are contributing to Google's hold over web specs. If Google decides to implement a feature off spec, then website developers will optimise for that implementation because it will be the implementation used by all chromium based browsers. And that leads to worse performance for other browsers with a more correct implementation.

Luckily they don't have to switch. Your good friends from the European union have a solution for you (And the latest beta for whatsapp features the skeleton for their implementation of that standard)

And that's totally fine. You do you. But

  1. Why do those who like cities have to live in a car-centric hellscape
  2. More people on bikes makes cities more bareble even for people who for some reason like driving because more bikes = less traffic jams and less noise
  3. Why does biking automatically mean big city. Small cities are in theory even better for that since they tend to be more compact. Stuff is less spread out even if the relative density is lower.

What do you mean? The UK is right there, land bridge to France and everything.
