To answer questions 1, 2, and 3:

1. Yes you can 👍

2. yep, do your rice. Maybe visit the Unixporn community.

3. For the most part (in MY experience) changing DEs only involves installing the desktop package, choosing your login manager, and then removing the old DE and its native apps (unless you want to keep them)

I’m not sure about how much up to date Kubuntu’s drivers are but maybe, if the software is at fault, changing to a more bleeding edge distro, like Fedora KDE, would solve this issue with temperature.

But that’s why I said we should improve upon these alternatives tho, they are certainly not perfect and I never said they could replace Windows software currently

Today’s reality is that most people (aka everyone) depends on these proprietary piece of software that are not avaiable on Linux, Adobe’s and Microsoft’s being the main ones.

But I believe that by focusing on improving and showing people that these alternatives exists and can be useable would help them slowly migrate to our open platforms, maybe even making proprietary software be ported to Linux.

When it comes to production software, THATS what we need, native Linux apps, and WINE does not solve that issue, so seeing it as a possible solution for running your production software (like Office 2021) will unsurprisingly cause days of fixing your stuff, while native Linux apps on the other hand, GIMP, Libreoffice, Inkscape, all work out of the box

That’s because Linux is meant to run Linux software… Wine should only be used as a last resort. When it comes to production software we should focus on improving our open alternatives and making them suitable for more users to migrate to our ecosystem, thus, creating demand for Adobe software or MS Office to be ported, or they might not even be needed by then

It’s the flathub repo, which is also listed on their official website! But your link is valid too

Alternatively, some folks can also try Freetube for an ad free youtube experience as a desktop app

OP thinks Microsoft’s ecosystem makes users too lazy to change to other ecosystems

A good portion of the “drama” comes from drivers issues, which are hit or miss within Linux distros. Your hardware can only work on boot or make you cry in pain while trying to compile them 😅 But when the hardware works, all you need to do is get used to the open source ecosystem! Wish you the best in your desktop Linux journey 🙂

Pop!_OS nvidia version

Unless the user is mostly searching for an emulation device. For that use case, android can prove to be quite decent.

But personally, I’m on the deck team too 😁

Too many choices is better than too few choices IMO

Brazilian here: I think that part of what makes these regimes to be as bad as they were is the legacy that they left. Not only did they cause alot of suffering with their violence and brutality, but also had their ideology impregnated in our society in the form of poverty, racism and conflicts that are still perpetuated to this day.

So, to me, both were as shitty as they could be in their own way, and reminds us how we humans can be consistently evil and cowards as a collective or nation.

But with effort and courage, one day we may see these ideologies disappear once and for all, and make them nothing but history.

Now they are fight attendants
