I believe the Steam Deck would be a significant portion of the Linux desktops, but Steam’s survey might be a biased source, still
Oh that is a good point, why didn’t I think of that!
Oh absolutely!
You can also easily set specific sites’ cookies not to be wiped, I use this to have websites I trust to store my data for convenience, but any random tracker-infested blog to forget me as soon as the browser closes!
And also, Mullvad Browser does this by default, as well. I think theirs can’t even be configured on a per-site basis.
Yeah, they’re like 80% the same idea at the very least
How does the make it non free from corporate influence.
Do they require Discord and depend on it? Yes.
Is Discord corporate? Yes.
Are they then still free from corporate influence? Nope.
H
Simply put, if Discord suddenly implemented weird rules the Ladybird devs would have to comply with, they’d simply have to follow suit or break their main communication channel.

In all seriousness, I think government bodies switching to Linux (UK’s, China’s, some Indian states’) attributes the most to this.
Same, there must be a percent or so of Windows actually being Linux instead.
Sounds like they hacked (out of) the box
Honestly, you’ll be lucky if you can get past any bootloader issues on a Samsung.
It was honestly trivial to wipe Samsung’s and install LineageOS on a Galaxy Note 10+ and a Galaxy Tab 7. The bootloader isn’t much of an issue.
Now, getting a random Linux system to install, rather than an Android system designed for these, sounds live a huge challenge.
I agree planning around it is stupid, but I don’t see how that affects computer programs.
(let me clarify, this seems like an everyone-issue, rather than a developer-issue)
Timezones are fine to program around.
DST is a bit of a pickle to plan around, but can be done just fine by a computer program.
Historical dates; considering leap years, skipped leap years, and times when leap years weren’t a thing or when humanity just decided we skip a bunch of years; are the bane of all that is good.
This, with reading the full name of the model each and every time, reads like a corporate ad

I think your first point is the main reason Ubuntu has its popularity to thank for; 10-15 years ago it was (one of) the best desktop Linux OSes, people used to its workflow will continue using it as there’s no imminent reason to switch to whatever new thing just came out
Firewall is pre-installed, and they offer to configure and enable it on launch (similar to Ubuntu and many other distros). I’ve never seen a Linux desktop they came with firewall preconfigured in any way.
The lock screen is an issue, and Cinnamon does not come with a Wayland way to lock yet. KDE, Gnome or some other Wayland friendly DE would be better in that regard, I agree
It was one of the first polished desktop Linux systems, even though it’s enshittified recently it holds its popularity due to its long-standing status as “THE Linux desktop”
I’ve never had this, at best that Mint refused to update the kernel if it was full but never booting issues
