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

Even worse - it looks like Google might be forced to sell Chrome to some AI company.

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.

A lot? All of them.

You should factor in that nowadays it is fairly normal for a single person to have multiple computers, so “My PC” is not specific enough anymore.

What’s wrong with Jerboa? Been using it since I left reddit, seems perfectly fine to me.

IME it substantially increased download speeds as well. There’s stuff that I would not have gotten at all without port forwarding.

AFAIK that’s exactly what it does.

I suspect most of the resource usage is LSP plugins, so equivalently configured neovim should be about the same, really. If you use VSCode as a plain text editor, it does not use that much RAM.

There’s a difference between source available and open source. For example, actually being allowed to distribute modified versions is pretty damn important:

Restrictions

• No Distribution of Modified Versions: You may not distribute modified versions of the software, whether in source or binary form.
• No Forking: You may not create, maintain, or distribute a forked version of the software.
• Official Distribution: Only the maintainers of the official repository are allowed to distribute the software and its modifications.

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.

I mean it worked for long enough 🤷‍♂️

Sure, but it’s nicer that I would stop using my phone because it’s not worth repairing anymore rather than because it’s not supported.

You overestimate most people. “KDE is bad. Admittedly last time I tried it was 15 years ago” is a real quote that I read.
