Two different things. LTS kernels get security patches until their support is dropped.

Yes, but if e.g. openSuSE installs its Grub 2 on top of Ubuntu's Grub 2, you end up with a different theming. If Windows overwrites the bootloader, the Linux boot options are gone.

No, but somebody else has done it and it is basically like the standard procedure for switching between releases.

Like my professor used to say: "Implementation is trivial, a trained ape can do it."

3. There's a Dropbox .deb and .rpm for linux as far as I can tell, but I cannot attest to its quality or how well it integrates with a given file manager. Cloud accounts are generally well supported amongst the key desktop environments, for which I'd consider Cinnamon to be a part of.

In 2018 Dropbox dropped support for running/syncing on encrypted partitions, in my case ext4 on encfs. Don't ask me why.

I don't know if that's still the case.

If you are using Xubuntu 22.04, it should be possible to switch without reinstallation, as Linux Mint and Ubuntu are binary compatible as Mint uses Ubuntu's repos and only adds Mint-specific packages in its own repo.

As there are LTS branches, currently 5.4, 5.10, 5.15, 6.1 and 6.6 which will get updates until Decembre 2025/2026, I don't see the problem.

I guess, the governor is set to performance for a realtime kernel to work properly, thus the CPU consumes more power.

Don't be scared if this leads to uninstallation of a meta-package.

Sorry guys, Pfizer is "Extremely Woke" too.

Then, as I said, removing libgtk2 and libgtk3, specifically, the corresponding packages containing these libraries, should trigger removing everything GNOME/GTK related.

OSMC (Debian based), if you want to install additional software or LibeELEC if you like to use only Kodi.

I suppose Fedora works similar to Debian handling dependencies, thus uninstalling libgtk* should trigger removing all GNOME/GTK packages and apps. Removing a metapackage, like it's probably gnome-desktop, usually does almost nothing.

Edit: You can reinstall the GTK apps you like to use, e.g. Firefox or LibreOffice, later, as the user config files are not going to be deleted.

Edit 2: Maybe I've misunderstood: Do you want to keep the GNOME login session an desktop environment but use KDE apps like Kate instead of gedit?

Pre 1975 edition.

Filofax If from UK. For these organisers and notebooks they produce, imho it actually makes sense to have several (equally spaced) holes.

Swedish Triohålning and especially the corresponding binders however, are mildly speaking impractical: It works starting from ISO A6 instead A7 and reading documents in a trio binder is a mess.

And then there is Sweden...

In Germany 2015 1700 tons of antibiotics were used, thereof only 300 t for human use.

On the platform formerly known as 🐦, there was the option to completely block a user (mutually invisible), not only muting (invisible for me) them, which avoids this problem.

However, with some effort, you can install Linux and turn them into regular laptops.
