natives apps in principle could be faster and use more of your hardware —in practice though, they tend to be horribly bloated electron crapps.
Electron "apps" are just glorified web pages anyhow. Native applications do offer superior performance as they are AOT compiled code. The ones that are written in rust, c, c++ etc, and if they are gui applications use frameworks like QT or GTK+. They are called native since they are compiled to machine code and are directly executable in the cpu without any kind of runtime like electron browser, java or python.
Prices mysteriously go up about a week before prime day sales, then drop to a few dollars below normal, scream “39% off” and you feel like you beat the system.
Gladly this practice is illegal in Finland at lest. Here companies having sales have to show the lowest price of that product within the last 30 days just for this very reason.
Not all distros ship SELinux and the ones that do, don’t actually configure it securely.
You're welcome to work with distro maintainers to fix this instead of just complaining about it.
New users are expected to keep copying and pasting commands from their browsers to their terminal which compromises some Linux security defenses.
This is a big problem
Most if not all of the Linux Distros in 2025 ship with Grub bootloader, which suffers from a lot of problems, instead of using the bootloaders that does not support BIOS and will improve the reliability of booting and provide a more stable experience.

Mobile radio communication is encrypted between you and the tower. Newer protocols have better encryption then older. That's why Stingray tracker is bad since it can force phones to use older vulnerable protocols.
Coming up with a decent domain name has been the challenge for me. You can't really put on to your cv or so something like me@thebestmfofalltime.com. You can but that doesn't sound very professional.
Choosing a decent service is usually the easy part (at least with the help of this community). The hard part is to change your email address everywhere.
Businesses can’t be expected to indefinitely support a piece of technology for free.
Of course not but they themselves announced long ago that win10 will be EOL'd in October 2025. Then later they announced that you can buy extra support for plenty and increasing amounts of money. And now this.
Though even longer ago they announced that win10 will be the last windows ever.
