After some major fuckups by Manjaro, consider EndeavourOS over Manjaro. They are pretty similar otherwise.

Arch is alright if you aren't new to Linux.

To be fair, Mint does a good job of fixing the annoyances that Ubuntu introduces. It comes with Snap disabled by default, for example.

It's not like you can't use Linux on a laptop with Nvidia GPU. It's just that AMD works better (and isn't as much of a PITA in how they treat regular Linux customers).

I've been roaming Linux (meme) communities for years, but never heard of this, even though it originates from the Bell Labs. Thanks for providing me with a new rabbit hole!

You just need to read physical media like stored somewhere you have physical control over, without DRM, and there hardly remains any disagreement.

This exists. For example, for general decentralized storage, there's storj.io, and there's PeerTube. But I guess there's a reason it's not more widespread. I'd happily be proven wrong, though.

I'm not sure if we manage to do the same for video though; hosting these costs a lot more.

Star Trek also has this.

Good question. Maybe GitLens can help with that, if not the official GitHub extensions.

VSCode has had that feature for some months now. Maybe it's still hidden behind an off-by-default setting, but it's there and I use it.

Not a bad idea, but if possible, you want to skip loading the ad altogether, which is – to my understanding – what currently happens.

Is there any precedent to ads in Apple products (apart from their store)? Although they'll surely find other ways to annoy non-Apple users, I don't think ads are "in style" for them.
