If you want Debian with more frequent updates, consider going Debian sid. Base Debian is also fine, maybe with Flatpaks for more up-to-date applications where needed.

Oh man. I’m so sorry for your loss. May your system break at some vague point in the future in a way that is nigh impossible to diagnose and that no one else seems to have experienced. Godspeed, you unwillingly content penguin!
Just go with Debian.
They were, but as I understand they are once again independent. I’d still rather stick with Librewolf, but I’m glad there are options.
Well yeah, the recent xz vulnerability was not present in the source code at all. Any amount of code reading would not have caught that one.
Always check the package list when updating. Tumbleweed for some reason occasionally wants to install Patterns even if they were not included to begin with. I’ve taken to updating with the command:
sudo zypper dup --no-recommends
to avoid installing packages/patterns I’m trying to avoid. You could probably also mask some packages so they are never installed, but I haven’t looked in to that.
Hope that helps.

Disappoint is a sober word here. I am actually pissed at the casual arrogance of Ubuntu and its parent company Canonical.
I’m actually baffled that this would come as a surprise to people. Canonical has been like this for a long time and you’d have to have blinders on to not see it. They are hell-bent on doing things their way and ignoring the wider Linux community and even their users. That is, of course, their prerogative and to some degree I even welcome their attempts at differentiating their distro from others. As a user though you should be aware of their history and the apparent direction they’re heading.
I just wish they’d stop stalling and went all-in on snaps already, since that’s pretty obviously where they’re headed.
The last time I remember Firefox having serious memory leaks they called it Firebird. Guess I’ve been lucky. Or in a comfortable ignorant haze.
Oh hey, I remember that screen. I have seen it many times. Many, many times. Oh God, so many times.
I’m going to be a bit cheeky and say Pulp by Charles Bukowski.
I hate that Tales of Maj’Eyal is my favorite Open Source game. I hate that a new expansion is coming out soon and I will instantly buy it and play it and hate myself. Check it out!
OpenTTD and Widelands are also pretty cool.
I’m going to go with a classic and recommend Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky.
UK is still a member of the Council of Europe and ECHR. It’s confusing, but those are distinct from EU, which the UK is not a member of anymore.
Bring back AltaVista!
Pine64 has also had terrible communication for a while now and their site has had technical issues for a month. They have not filled me with confidence as of late.
postmarketOS is great though.
The King in Yellow is great. Doesn’t get the attention it deserves.
I’ve been using ad blockers since the early 2000’s. Ads with noise is what did it for me. Pop-ups too were super annoying. There was also malware in some ads back in the day. So yes, ads poisoned the internet a long time ago and I absolutely refuse to browse the internet without one. Or two.
