I'm am ex web dev/des and still maintain some websites for non-profits. I think you underestimate the human stupidity factor. I already have to front an infuriating level of stupid questions and problems that people have caused themselves by not following the most simple of directions. Do I like JavaScript? No. Do I wish I could completely ditch it? 100%. But people are stupid. And without it's use, I would be handling even more CS than I am now. The average person expects a website to act a certain way and without that they lose their minds.
Replying to this excellent comment on a refurbed (no money to Google) Pixel 7 with GrapheneOS.
Setup was definitely more complex than a spyware android phone (I went from a Samsung Galaxy) but once its set up, it just works and there's no way I'd go back to anything else.
I've been raw feeding for over decade. The health of my cats massively improved. The ones that have been raw fed right from the get go are the healthiest I've ever been owned by. One of my cats, the vet said was the "most beautiful specimen he's ever seen" (yes he used that terminology lol and all my cats are just mutty rescues) and said he was incredibly healthy.
I've gotten more food poisoning from supermarket food than I ever have off raw cat food, which is to say never in that time. We use a high quality local business that specialises solely in raw feeding.
With regards to research, just bear in mind that the pet food industry is a multi-billion dollar industry with vested interests in maintaining the status quo. There's also plenty of evidence to show that, as an industry, there's a lot of dodgy stuff going on and that its causing huge health issues for pets, including deaths. I believe there's been several documentaries on it but I haven't looked this info up in many years.
I'll edit this with some studies once I'm on my PC and not my phone because it's annoying to do with a phone keyboard.
Its not just about us using Linux though - it's also users on the other end that were interacting with. If I handle sensitive information, use encryption and disappearing messages and what have you, that doesn't mean squat if I have to send some sensitive information to someone using insecure email and Recall. Microsoft, Google and whatever other gods awful privacy invading service and companies the person on the other end now have that data.
And a lot of people just don't even think about this stuff. They could be the type of person who will promise yo keep your secrets or sensitive stuff and actually do that, but keeping that away from privacy invading companies isn't even on their radar.
I have a Google Pixel with Graphene OS and I only install bare minimum of apps on it. I've never used Temu and don't have an account. So not asking for myself 🙂 But I know many family members who have the most frustratingly ad ridden, notification nagging and invasive apps known to humankind - was asking to help them debloat, improve their privacy and free up some of their time and sanity.
It's a shame there's no list of those thousands of apps that take screenshots. While its not all apps, it would have still been a handy reference.
Do you know where in Exodus you can see if an app takes screenshots? Looking through the permissions of two of the most invasive apps I could think of off the top of my head (Facebook, Google, Temu, Instagram, some popular mobile games) I couldn't find any permissions specifically related to screenshot. If most apps tested are taking screenshots, I would have thought it would be easy to see :/
Thunderbird is independently developed from Mozilla and has been since 2020. It's driven by the Thunderbird Council which is community elected. Its only link now with Mozilla Foundation is that it's a financial subsidiary.
But as others say, there's also Betterbird if one still fanatically hates Mozilla.
I've also seen Serif saying that they won't. It was someone else that linked it. I have tried to find the link again but could not and I'm too tired and sick to keep looking. The TL;DR was that they tend to be good at stringing people along but they've definitively said its not on their roadmap, won't be added and supporting Affinity on Linux would be too expensive/difficult.
Canva has little financial reason to invest in Linux users either.
Enshittification also adds to making it incredibly unlikely.
People have been begging Adobe to port to Linux or at least make their products work with WINE for more than a decade now to no avail and Adobe, unlike Serif, has the budget to do so.
