It was still malicious code. A different attack for sure, but no less devastating for the victims.

However, manjaro places the button to enable it right next to enabling snaps and flatpaks. Both of which are perfectly safe to install if not safer than average packages.
The snap store has already been used to distribute malware, one guy lost a lot of money in crypto, and I’m sure it wasn’t an isolated incident. I think it would be naive to think flathub isn’t being targeted in the same way. Same advice as the aur, be cautious.
We’ll drive off that bridge when we get to it
SLE is a fork of factory. Leap is based on SLES with community additions, it’s why SUSE changing to ALP and dropping desktop support in the new version was such a big thing for the future of Leap.
I’d also recommend Mint with Mate or Xfce. They have a German forum too.
Yeah, it’s not feature complete
The ones on your face, right now!
There’s Tiled menu for KDE Plasma
Well, I guess if someone calls and says you have kidnapped a little girl and that they have seen you with a gun, the police can’t take a chance that it’s hoax. All phone numbers that call the police should be logged and if it turns out to be a hoax, traced, so people who make hoax calls can be arrested and prosecuted.
Fucking hell
Well, as I said, it gives you the whole thing from scratch, in addition it doesn’t fuck with your menus. Finally, and most importantly, maybe people don’t like experimenting on their main machine.
You get the whole experience including installing your necessary software
Easier install and a cromulent setup out of the box. It’s why I went with Endeavour.
I tried PC/BSD on a desktop quite a few years ago and it was pretty good, apart from having to build a lot of my software from their ports tree. That ultimately put me off and I went back to Linux. I tried FreeBSD on an old laptop last year and no matter what I tried, I couldn’t get it to recognize my Wifi adapter. I gave up after a couple of days.
So, if your hardware is supported BSD is good, but if it’s not than it’s really not.
Flouncing off is about the drama of leaving, not the time served before doing so. You can be in a role for decades and then flounce off!
If you mean the drama I’m thinking off, that seemed to me to be a guy taking on a role that was always going to be 90% political because people are resistant, and sometimes downright hostile, to change and then flouncing off when it was 90% political.
Widgets and themes broke when version 6 was released but that was a major upgrade which changed the underlying technology (Qt5 to Qt6) and it was announced before-hand. It tends not happen with minor and patch updates.
If you do decide to go the web route, I recommend Build Responsive Real-World Websites with HTML and CSS and The Complete JavaScript Course 2024: From Zero to Expert! as a good starting point. Being Udemy, you don’t have to pay full price. If they don’t have a sale on now, they will fairly soon. The courses are worth full price though!
I disagree with you, I happen to think that the average person is intelligent enough to make an informed decision about their computing. They just have to forgo the learned helplessness that Microsoft and Apple have fostered since the early nineties.
I don’t think it’s unreasonable for someone who is dissatisfied to try a few out. Let’s be clear here, if you’re satisfied, then you’re not going to even think about moving but more and more people are becoming dissatisfied, you can tell by the number of people on Reddit (yes I still lurk Reddit) asking about switching. Also, unless you’re really a geek, it isn’t going to be close to a technical decision - it will be purely gut-feel. I like this one, I don’t like that one.
The only site wide protest that counts is not to use it
