Microsoft has not stopped forcing Edge on Windows 11 users.
For casual users that only need a web browser, a mail client and an office suite, Linux is a great replacement for Windows.

'Kids Online Safety Act' will deliberately target trans content, senator admits.
It should be the parents' job to regulate what kind of content their children consume on the internet, not the government's.

Yes, but frequently used dependencies can be extracted into runtimes which can be shared by many applications.

Coders, what is your workflow on Linux
I mostly program in Rust and my main editor is VSCodium with the NeoVim extension but lately I've been experimenting with Alacritty + Tmux + Helix and I'm starting to like it quite a bit.

If you updated Hyprland yesterday you likely have to rework your conf file
I wonder why they chose this weird nonstandard config format instead of something like TOML

if you could standardise a file format for a specific task what would you pick and why

100% this. Much more readable than JSON, YAML or other custom formats.

Web browsers handle the most sensitive information about a user, so I would never trust a proprietary browser.

No browser will ever tick ALL your boxes.
Why not? Is it that hard to NOT include bloatware in your browser and respect XDG Base Directory? As for content blocking, the code is already there because extensions make use of it, just integrate it into the browser UI and use uBlock Origin's block lists.

And I'd have to do that manually for every computer on which I install the browser. I can't just tell someone to install a browser and use it as is, there are always several additional steps required after install to have a decent experience. This is especially a problem for people who are not tech savvy.
