The solution is install with apt.
I checked on my machine, and out of all the packages I had on snap, only Inkscape, VLC and Slack were also available on apt. Spotify, Whatsdesk (a WhatsApp client) and Signal were among the most commonly used missing.
I think it’s even simpler than that: they want a share of Google’s data, and more control about what ads they can show to their customers constantly. Their hardware platforms are okayish and sold for a quite low price, but they monetize it on ads.
I’ve looked if I could do it myself as well, but there’s basically nothing but “look at how it’s done on similar devices”. It’s fantastic to build an app to support all those devices, but it’s a bit of a shame not to provide guides so others can contribute to support it.
The list of supported devices is there (and too short, none of my wireless devices work).
Maybe OP works in noisy environments, or his device is a recent phone which doesn’t have a jack input and using a adapter is not very convenient?
Anyway, passive noise cancellation (typically, a closed back or in-ears) is more efficient in the higher frequencies: physically blocking short wavelengths is a lot easier, as any obstacle will act as a dampener. On the other hand, ANC is a lot more efficient on lower frequencies (on the opposite, it’s easier to be precise on lower frequencies, longer wavelengths). On ANC devices, both are used in tandem. And I don’t know if you’ve tried any good, recent ANC headphones these last few years, but they’ve become surprisingly good! Nothing to be compared with passive noise blocking.
but im sure there are wired headphones with ANC
I’m sure there are (although I don’t know any), but ANC requires digital processing, which is performed by the headphones itself on the signal. If you’re plugged in with a jack, that means you’ll be needing a digital-to-analog-to-digital conversion, which is objectively a loss in quality, which would have to be handled by the headphones… Besides, ANC headphones usually have several modes which can be selected from the app. Anyway, all that to say that now that we have quite to very good Bluetooth audio codecs, there’s no real upside to having a wired connection for ANC headphones, which is why most makers have moved to that.
I get my comics on getcomisc.org or Soulseek. The first one has good sources and a few collections, although nothing I’d call an actual “bulk”. With Soulseek you can download the batches of your choice.
Might be enough for touch-based interfaces though, or fingers don’t have a 4K resolution either.
There are simpler and better solutions than Sublime for that use case, IMO.
Both are text editors, but VSCode’s plugin system and various config options can turn it a fully fledged IDE for the languages of your choice.
Besides, Sublime is exactly that: good, old.
You’re comparing compiled executables to scripts, it’s apples and oranges.
But there already is a device that answer that specific need, so it wouldn’t make sense for the Raspberry 5 to replace it.
Isn’t the Pi 3B still available for that kind of job?
I haven’t, but what would they bring to the table? Would they allow specific tweaks like xrandr?
You may be more used to bash, but after having tinkered with both and converted some scripts from one to the other, I arrived to the conclusion that both are bad.

I had checked the HDMI cable several times but never thought about checking the dongle: of course that was it. Good catch, thank you!
Might be that Dell devs don’t give a damn about correct specs (which are usually implemented in Linux) and only test on Windows. Mine is connected in HDMI though.
Does this monitor work well with Windows?
Added to the main post. I didn’t in the first place as I’m not so sure it’s relevant (outside of the GPU and supported resolution, which I specified)
Anyway: Tuxedo InfinityBook Pro Gen 7, DELL S3422DWG
You f*d up at the part where you didn’t start explaining in song, orchestra and all.
