Best match

Sure thing, bud 😂

It even recognized the local app that matches, how on earth is this a better match

Are you sure that’s not a monitor setting?

And sometimes recommended by Microsoft support.

As far as I can see, it’s freeware, not foss

Or Fedora

Does that laptop have an SSD?

According to this Google accounts for 90% of Chromium code contributions. If Google does not control Chrome anymore, expect them to mostly go away.

FreeBSD is closer to Unix than Linux is

Question is how “real” that support is - firmware updates matter and depend mostly on the chip manufacturer’s support.

By 8 years old even the newest devices will be out of software support and using EOL phones is not a particularly great idea for security. GOS’s security focus goes out the window if you use an old version with known vulnerabilities.

You can probably expect GOS support as long as Google supports the device, that is the main limitation. For the newer Pixels that is promised to be 7 years after release.

Going by this table, Pixel 6 is currently the oldest to get full GOS updates

That matches Google’s software support

Don’t buy ASUS, they have a terrible security record. At this point I would trust only MikroTik and Ubiquiti.

That is a consequence of having parallelism - all mainstream pre-Rust memory safe languages with parallelism suffer from this issue, they are still generally regarded as memory safe. I don’t know where you got that Java does not have this issue, you need to know to use the parallelism-safe data types where necessary.

How is Go not memory safe? Having escape hatches does not count, all the safe languages have those.

Yep, reinvent it for educational purposes and then burn it with fire.

What does it matter? They all rely on Mozilla to do the hard work - maintenance and keeping up with web standards, and then just slap a couple of features and customizations on top of it. If Mozilla dies the current forks are dead in the water.

It’s neither with parts from both.

I’m not sure what a flatpak version could possibly do any better than the version I use.

The official OBS flatpak supports more codecs and integrations than some distro packages.

Stability is also a factor, especially on rolling or cutting edge distros. Fedora RPM release of Blender did not work for me at all with an nvidia GPU, for example.

AFAIK no systemd -> no flatpak -> don’t recommend to newbs. Say what you will about flatpak, but it is the official distribution method for some popular pieces of software and large GUI software generally works better through it (in my experience) - think Blender, GIMP etc.

All the core tools are actually a single executable with many symlinks to it, which makes the distro very compact. This makes it very nice as a base for Docker images.
