They can not recieve firmware updates. They are always provided by the OEM

*qbittorrent

Those numbers only include instances that have telemetry enabled

Ublock origin + sponsor block on desktop, ReVanced on Android and SmartTube on Android TV, no ads.

Probably not the best for focus on privacy but you can avoid ads

Cinnamon or something idk I use qtile

You can look into Plasma Bigscreen

I also found this, It’s for a RaspberryPi but surely can be adapted:

You can look at the source of the snap and check what it does

I don’t have any experience with your exact question.

But I would look into xinit and try if you can start just mpv.

If this doesn’t work look for a slim WM and configer it that the applications are displayed in fullscreen and launch mpv after the WM.

Probably any of the tiling window managers should work: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Window_manager

+1 for nix, but I wouldn’t recommend it as a first distro

Create your input for email and password with the id / name “email” and “password” and hide them with CSS. Then you create the real inputs with an id like “zipcode” or some other thing that would throw bots off.

Password managers hate this trick

If you create an image of the disk in the current state from a live boot or an other machine. You can try fixing it without having to risk making things worse

I agree on your take, but I don’t think that “future scaling” is a concern for the most home users.

Just mount it to a fixed location in /etc/fstab, but use a mount option like nofail or nobootwait (quick search showed that this is the option for ubuntu users), so your machine still boots when the drive is not connected

Just use any distro you like and install the packages you need. Done.

Nix is a functional programming language / package manager, which allows you to build software reproducible.

For example, one developer has version 1.1 of a dependency installed and a second developer has version 1.2 of the same dependency installed. Both build the software from source and get a different result.

This can lead to “but it works on my machine” bugs. Nix mitigates this and ensures that all devs have the exact same versions and the build process produces the same output.

In theory these kind of bugs can now only happen because of hardware fault.

For game piracy this should streamline the installation process. You can just run one command and the game works and you don’t have to tinker around to find out why it does not work for you.

Does not seem very active

But for real, depends on your use case I use arch on my dev machine and you get nearly every package in the AUR
