For matrix there is a no for client removes image metadata. Did you check all clients? I would imagine it was client dependent.

All chat tools after irc have been trash for large communities. That includes slack. Irc somehow still works with 1500 people in it. I can not explain how. With a logging bot the discussions can be archived for google searchabillity. I guess that could be true for a discord or slack also, But i never seen it implemented. In most slacks i can not search more then 60 days back.

Everything. O365/outlook do not use normal email protocols. On normal exchange you can enable imap. Do not know about o365 tho. Also unfortunatly you loose a lot of other features if you dare to step outside the walled garden.

I read discord...

Anyone that make a chat tool that do not support the open federated matrix protocol, have ulterior motives. Probably to lock you and your eyeballs into their walled garden.

How often depends on how much work it is to recreate, or the consequences of loosing data.

Some systems do not have real data locally, get a backup every week. Most get a nightly backup. Some with a high rate of change , get a lunch/middle of the workday run.
Some have hourly backups/snapshots, where recreating data is impossible. CriticL databases have hourly + transaction log streaming offsite.

How long to keep a history depends on how likely an error can go unnoticed but minimum 14 days. Most have 10 dailes + 5 weeky + 6 monthly + 1 yearly.

If you have paper recipes and can recreate data lost easily. Daily seems fine.

Talk about trumatic memory. The amount of family and friend gatherings i spent cleaning malware of a old beige windows machine is horrifying. Opened internet explorer, and it was more toolbars then webpage area. No wonder i run 100% linux nowadays.

I do not think that ever worked.

Absolutely. I have not pirated a single game since I got steam. Before that it was almost exclusively pirated games. no shops close by, and buying on mail order took FOREVER! and was very much hit or miss.. And impossible to return.
I did buy most of the games that i enjoyed, and played a lot. Since i wanted the box on the shelf. but i still played the pirated version. since that was much easier then puling out the book and look at the 5th word on the 3rd paragraph on page 121 for the copy protection. :)

having a company that is not actively trying to exploit us is surprisingly refreshing.

do not give them good ideas. I need steam to have all games since it is the only one with any good linux support. it does not matter if EGS have free games if i can not play them.

for sure! steam liberated my machine from a windows dual boot partition. and made me go 100% linux all the time. gratitude is not really strong enough. it is more like when you have been captured, and then set free.

I disbelive the debian answer here. Sounds like a case of frankendebian https://wiki.debian.org/DontBreakDebian

Been usig Debian for home and work and on hundreds of servers for 2 decades and it have been near flawless. Any issues i have had have always been my own fault.

Thanks. I do not own a steam deck. Just regular steam app on linux's

Where would it show up? Have played on 3 devices. All linux tho naturally.

Toilet paper was invented in the 15th century. Capitalism in the 16th. Explains a lot actually..

Someone have been listening to the alliance propaganda

The eu do not have the huge stockpiles of weapons and ammo that the US have. While they have promised aid for ukraine. That often needs to be built in factories first.

so true.
my uncle had a tv. and 2 movies on vcr. I saw "Smokey and the bandit" more then a hundred times. and "the sting" 30-40 times..

Including phones would be significant. But in my (probably deranged) head android/linux is a different os from GNU/linux. The overlap of the kernel itself is not enough. In that case all switches/routers/storage appliances/toasters/washing machines/fridges/iot sensors often also run linux.
