Everybody woke in the morning which explains why they seemingly hate everybody.

Newbies should be taught to review what they install beforehand on the AUR which almost anyone can contribute to with minimal barriers. Most users treat it like any other package repository but its not the same thing and it's definitely more risky then a curated repository.

Fedora tends to include a lot of the latest tech in a stable working configuration, stuff like Wayland and GNOME in the past and more. I like that I can get that while still enjoying a nice curated set of package repositories and without relying on something like the AUR for most packages. I'm happy to let others do the testing on the absolute bleeding edge and take the risks while I get to enjoy the fruits of that with a lot less pain with Fedora.

Best distro imo right now for desktop. Fedora a close second.

Others like Arch are great too but more for enthusiasts.

Many people vote but may not have much to say about the topic or that someone has already said what they're thinking.

When you release your software for free you don't owe anybody a thing. If you're getting burnt out or it's impacting your personal life too much then don't be afraid to stop and hand over control of the project gracefully. The latter is hard to do for most people though, because giving up something you've spent so much time and effort on is challenging. However, your irl always comes first.

Burn out and stress applies regardless of whether you get paid for your work or not. Plenty of people feel the same way about their paid jobs too. I think all being paid to continue work on this project will do is prolong the inevitable, that it's time to move on regardless.

OP seems to mention a bunch of things that can be summed up as belonging to "grind mentality" or the need to feel like everything you do should be productive in some way. That's capitalism tricking you into being a good little worker bee so you can be exploited for maximum profit. Life is too short to base ones personality too heavily around money and it's ruined so many hobbies as a result.

Pick one you do like and just use that. I originally overthought the Fediverse and made accounts everywhere and thought I wanted all the things. Turns out it's perfectly fine to just use one and get content federated over from the others.

Also, most phone apps allow you to store credentials for multiple instances and quickly switch between them which is really handy.

Time wasted doing something you enjoy even with no purpose is not time wasted at all. It only becomes a problem when it reaches DSM levels of addiction where you're actually neglecting things in your life that are important, like hygiene and family, or completely losing touch with reality like a bunch of people did with COVID.

Ex-corporate refurbished laptop from the last 3 or 4 years for about $300 tops is perfect for this.

They don't see it as doing something wrong but as a challenge that they must overcome. The ethics don't really come into play in their minds because someone else will just do it anyway and they're just doing their job. Just like a police officer with their knee on someone's throat.

Doesn't say there's a limit on how many pills of your choice you can take so I assume you'll get an ongoing prescription of them. In which case, I'm taking 6 and reliving my 20s forever.

Weed.

Car companies aren't stupid though, they know that they make money from their own closed little ecosystems of car parts and servicing and they're potentially handing Apple and Google control of something worth a lot of money. Hopefully, they'll get their cut and we can have nice things but we'll see.

This is why the Chinese people are very supportive of their government. You would be too in this situation.

Nah not cheating but definitely something that should be discussed in a relationship.

They claim it's to generate your encryption key but then I don't understand why you can't just give it a passphrase instead. Pretty dumb for a so-called privacy related app.

What's to stop them just having a bowser for it in a traditional station like they already do with LPG powered cars today?

Honestly I'm glad that somebody is exploring other environmentally friendly alternatives too, nothing wrong with having options.
