Yeah exactly this. Not only lacking direction but the Upstream SUSE recently decided to move away from traditional desktop. Instead, they now offer ALP, which stands for adoptable linux platform. So OpenSuse has no real dekstop products to build of, and the community has to do much more work in order to produce a stable desktop distribution. I was a happy user for a almost 2 years, but in that time the community had discussion about many "small" things, many of which were about "principles". This made ne very uncomfortable in using it, since it felt that every moment the "community" would decide something that would significantly change everything.

I was broke and my hard drive failed. I've heard/read somewhere that Linux can be booted of a live cd, something quite new back in the days(like 15 years ago?). So I made one a used my broken laptop with broken hdd for about 7 months, just from the live session without persisting anything. It was a pain to wait for everything since most things would have to be loaded from the dvd, but it worked!

No I use it on Android for a few years already.

All the nerds like to recommend the Pixel since it's "pure" and a device for tinkering. But ignore the fact that all google products are unfinished, and this is true for the pixel line. If you are OK with beta testing for google and doing workarounds for bugs, then this is fine. But not everyone has time and nerves for that.

Yeah, samsung has bloat(most can be removed, disabled etc.) but I've never had OS bugs like when I had a Nexus or a Pixel.

I am not 100% sure, but I think you don't really need an account. I've had interviews where I got a link to a call/invite and opened it in the web browser. There was no need to sign in. Just enter a name and grant permissions for accessing cam and mic.

Same as in Zoom, actually.

Is it just me, or is the sound the keyboard is making really bothersome? It sounds like awful banging. Can't imagine that being pleasant.

Posting something on a public forum will never be private, no matter where exactly. There's so much ways for this content to get "saved" like web scrapers, web archive, screenshots etc.
