I'm talking about the low-effort market segment that flavored juul pods, for instance, used to take up. Now, it's flavored dispos, making your own juice, or juul-type vapes with only menthol and tobacco flavors.

In the US, replaceable pods can only be tobacco or menthol flavored, disposables can be any flavor. Yes, it is as stupid as it sounds.

Upgrades are easy, backups are really good, if upgrades mess up, you can restore from backup even if NC is hosed. As for local storage, I never did it, but here's the docs for it! https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/latest/admin_manual/configuration_files/external_storage/local.html

Cargo is really simple, which is great, but also limiting. Maven is much more complex, but for good reason - there's use cases, especially around multi-artifact projects and version sharing, where cargo would require either some glue or you run into some interesting edge cases. Usually, Rust isn't used for the kinds of big, wacky projects with a million dependencies that companies write in Java/Kotlin, so those kinds of use cases are considered more unusual.

Gradle, in my opinion, makes itself complex because it's all code, is very brittle, and several of its features just don't work right and require workarounds. When it works, it builds fast and it works well, but getting it to work, and how often you have to get it to work again...not worth it.

https://kotlinlang.org/docs/maven.html That's not true, you can use Maven if you want!

Crippling is a bit extreme - have you used Proton recently?

If I recall correctly, the desktop right click menu was one of the things they fixed in Plasma 6, actually.

For the window corners thing, meta+left or right should let you move it to somewhere you can grab it.

Check the list, bud. It's far from just obscura.

Majority by number of distros, or only including desktop Linux distros? Because yeah, if you're including server distros, that's true, and if you count it by the number of distros, that's true, but most people use one of a handful of distros on their desktop. Both gnome and KDE have software centers which you can use to install stuff without the command line.

...or that it was asked at 8AM EST and it's only been a few hours?

It just means your KDE version is newer, it's also the distro made by the KDE devs. I'm not too worried about canonical, they're annoying, but it rarely affects me.

Just get KDE from the horse's mouth then and use KDE Neon. Ubuntu packages, but snapd isn't even installed by default. It also ships with rolling release stable KDE, but isn't rolling release otherwise.

Try a few of the options here. I personally have used powertop and tlp and they help, but the best mix for your hardware might be different.

Yes, but you, who I assume follow this mindset, do buy things under capitalism, since you must in order to live. How, then, do you decide?

I think that is a useless mental model. It doesn't help you make decisions except those that lead to revolution. The person you're replying to is trying to point that out. If I want to buy a phone, which should I buy? Your rhetoric says "whichever one will lead to revolution", which really isn't helpful.

I'm more talking about laptops, you can use it without paying for it on a device you build yourself, albeit with some functionality restricted.

Oh no, the manufacturer of any computer with a windows license paid for it and passed that cost to you. You paid for it.

Imagine paying for Windows. What a waste of money.

If you're using pipewire, try XDAJackRetask, I use it for that purpose.
