My partner is currently running PopOS. They somehow managed to combine the chronically outdated Ubuntu packages with a rather counterintuitive UI.
Updates frequently fail, commonly used packages like gamescope aren’t available, overall wouldn’t recommend.
Had it on my Fairphone 4 for a while, but was put off by the very iOS look-and-feel. Ditched it on favour of Lineage.
I moved to Qobuz for that reason. Much better payout for the artists.
Interesting take on the sci-fi horror genre 😁
You don’t? Then why?
The Swedish government can go suck a lemon.
Because R is incredibly clunky. I’ve worked with both and never got the hang of R.
The ActivationPolicy I added in an attempt to replicate what wg-quick produces, as I recall.

Yea it took some time until my FP4 was supported by lineage, back when it was new. But if the price is an issue I doubt OP would get the latest model, anyway.
While the ad blocker integrated into Iodé is nice, their freemium model turns me away. Putting some ad blocking capabilities behind a subscription feels shady. Also they’re rather slow with updates. I’ve used it for a while and watched the ad blocker going from blocking virtually everything to blocking 66-75%.
Kickstarter has a massive spam problem in my experience and best I can tell it’s not talked about.
I backed a single project, immediately deactivated any and all communication from KS, except for that project, but I keep getting mails from different domains, advertising various stupid crowdfunding projects.
I have 16 blocked mails in the last week alone.
Motorola’s Moto G series is usually supported and relatively cheap.
However, if you’re willing to spend a little bit more I recommend getting a Fairphone, if you can. Simply because they guarantee 10 years of device support after release and you can easily get original replacement parts.
So you won’t have to get a new phone just because the battery died.
Yea, people mostly equate email to an electronic letter, but it’s more like an electronic postcard. Anyone handling it can simply read it.
So you’ll want encryption, too. So either you get everyone to use PGP/GPG or get them to use a privacy-by-default provider.
Good luck with the first option and I’m not sure how interoperable the various providers are, so in the worst case you’d have to rally everyone to the same provider.
The storage requirements might be ever so slightly prohibitive.
It’s not about being helpful in the sense of just answering the question at hand. If OP just wanted the question answered they can just Google it. Instead I wanted to offer an alternative, low risk solution.
While Ubisoft, EA and consorts can easily stomach some piracy and still crank out “AAA” titles in a 6-months interval, it hurts small studios relatively more. Buying and returning, on the other hand, offers a way to give feedback to the studio via the return reason and costs just as little as piracy.
I’m not saying it was always the case. Back when ads were just images hosted on the same machine as the rest of the page they were only annoying.
But nowadays even so-called acceptable ads are delivered by third-party servers. So suddenly you have to trust not only the operator of the page you’re visiting but also any advertising partners they use. And since all modern advertising uses a gazillion of metrics that necessitates JavaScript you end up executing code that neither you nor the page operator have any actual need for nor influence on, hoping that the ad network has some sort of vetting process so they don’t end up unwittingly delivering malware.
That’s a tall order in my opinion.
Yes, most times gamescope isn’t required. Thing is, sometimes it is and not having the option is an inconvenience in the best case and makes games unplayable in the worst case.
