Do all devils have a private jet? Or just this one?

They do provide Linux support in other ways though. They even troubleshoot me once with a game I tried to play on Linux and offered a refund.

Gog Galaxy not on Linux is a shame, yes, but its DRM-Free and Linux installers are enough for me to continue to buy from them.

Edit: Heroic Launcher makes a great replacement of Gog Galaxy, maybe even better than the Windows client, from what I'd tried. No multiplayer though.

Please reconsider.

Since Affinity have been recently acquired by Canva, many of its users doubt that perpetual license will be respected.

Just look at the comments of its announcement.

You actually don't need it.

If you trust Zoom enough, then you can install its official client from its webpage, without "a whole ass sandbox program" that restricts its access to important parts of your system.

But it's your call, I prefer the other way around.

Being recently acquired by Canva stops me from trusting that deal in the long run.

Even the casual Zoom meeting is a breeze because of the Flatpak client.

Yes, it is, although there are many differences between both.

Many suggest Linux Mint (one of the best regarded beginner distro) as well, which has two versions, one based on Ubuntu and the other on Debian.

So, the three are like Debian's most popular branch.

It resembles the efforts of Archive.org and other culture-preservation driven websites/projects.

Internet is (or should be) our Library of Alexandria, where everyone is welcome —no matter their country, believes or financial situation— and have a feist on culture and knowledge like none other and for free. Games, art, books, cinema, Lemmy-like forums. You name it.

Coding isn't always compensated. Open source projects thrive because of the work of developers that don't get paid in most cases. That doesn't stop them (although it's probably because they do other work and can spare time and money).

My point is that both, art and coding, don't require compensation. Many people do both for the sake of it.

That doesn't mean they don't deserve compensation (in the form of donations). They do, most than any other.

Mexican here.

As you say, Mexico is a bit divisive about her, many calling her just a mere puppet of current president López Obrador and worrying about her not doing that much when she was state governor.

And many of her claims about feminism, ecologism, pro-Palestina positioning, are a bit weird, in respect of her former position and the little things she did in regard those.

What worries me personally rn is that legislative power will also be at her mercy. If she wants to do any change to Constitution (as Lopez Obrador already had tried many times), little to nothing will be able to stop her. For better or for worse.
