Why don't you use the Software App for installing Apps?

The issues with games usually arise because people try to run games made for Windows on Linux. Just like you can't run Linux games on Windows (unless you use WSL, which is just straight up running Linux), you can't easily run most Windows games on Linux.

No Valorant on Linux :(

What software were you trying to install that you couldn't install by simply clicking the install button in the software store?

I use NixOS on my main PC.

If you want to use NixOS, you have to be willing to read.

Two things are especially difficult:

Coding: You will have to learn the Nix-specific way for everything you do. How does Nodejs work in NixOS? How does GCC work in NixOS? How does my IDE work in NixOS?

Using unofficial packages: The nix repos are very large and you'll most likely find everything you need there (or on flatpak/flathub). But if something isn't there, the easiest way tends to be packaging it as a nix package yourself. And that's something many people probably don't want to do.

The coding thing is annoying enough that I may switch away from NixOS at some point.

Other than that, NixOS is great.

There's difference in disagreeing in opionion and thinking someone is just wrong. In the latter case, I find it reasonable to suppress their comment using downvotes.

Brave provides a good balance between features and privacy for normal users.

I think many users will be uncomfortable with Mull and especially Librewolf.

(I personally use Mull but since it's limited in functionality I sometimes have to switch to a more fully featured browser, that browser being Brave.)

Websites become less profitable and need to show more ads to survive.

The browser is highly performant, contains (nearly) all necessary (usability and privacy) features and is suitable for beginners.

The search has a nice interface that is usable without javascript, has an onion site and should be low on telemetry. It also (in my opinion) has the best search results after Google. And these search results are Brave's own results, not just resold Bing results; so they're actually bringing real competition to the search engine market.

Using the crosswalk

As opposed to?

That's not true. If the population grows only a little, say one more person each year, the relative amount shrinks.

I believe the most common issue people face today is simply not getting to know enough people in order to find a partner.

In Javascript you can do let a = undefined, defining the variale a as undefined.

A significant difference to defining it as null is that typeof null == "object", while typeof undefined == "undefined".

If you care about brainless animals, you might as well care about plants.

For most users pretty GUIs are far more important than the latest security updates. (And even if they weren't, Fedora offers both.)

Aren't other file/image hosts just as vulnerable to DMCA takedowns? I mean, they have to comply with their host country's law, too.

I can confidently say that in not a single company project I did frontend development for did I ever leave user input unsanitized.

But I did not ever create a Lemmy like project, that is true.
