I recently installed Nix alongside with Arch. I feel the same. After years of using Arch I spent two days to get everything configured the same as in my Arch, and I haven’t finished it yet.

Don’t buy a Mac. That’s more limiting than a Windows. But yeah install linux.
yeah I’m a fucking idiot because I thought wrongly the redis’ language…
I use rust only if we need performance, for small services. The industry does the same. People use node for backend but e.g. redis is in rust. It’s a good tool if you use it for the right stuff.
EDIT: redis is not in rust, but e.g. aws writes many services in rust
Our views can be compatible. Endless os is quite limited right now, but if flathub would have xampp, for example, that would be easily the simplest way to run a webserver. However, every techy person prefers docker, me too. It’s just not something that my mother can deal with. In general, linux is lacking these mother compatible apps where we have more advanced solution. Of course, I wouldn’t recommend endless and others in the category if the goal is to run a webserver.
None of them good for non techy people. I wouldn’t recommend mint. Gnome is the most friendly DE with pleasing defaults. There are many immutable flatpak distros coming with gnome. e.g.: Endless os which is pre installed on some asus laptops instead of Ubuntu for reason.

I deleted /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.
I did it because valgrind had a problem with it. I thought I can fix it with reinstalling the package. I tried to lookup which package is it from, but the command I used was wrong and I didn’t get any result. So I thought, what if I created it, maybe I just forgot it.
the moment I deleted it everything stopped working. It was fixable only from a pendrive.
Have you tried it?
Afaik, most phones are backdoored that can be abused using tools like “pegasus” which led to a huge indignation in Hungary. I don’t belive PCs are exceptions. Intel ME is a proprietary software inside the CPU, often considered as a backdoor in Intel. AMD isn’t an exception. It’s even weirder that Intel produces chips with ME disabled for governments only.
Try donating projects you would like to use. If your adobe subscription amount is going to gimp and inkscape, you are buying yourself into the future of freedom. If you buy adobe, you will limit yourself more and more.
Using your own device is good and comfortable. I always hated companies that wants to force windows laptop or macbook on me. I suggest compell them for their tech choice or consider leaving that company and searching for a better one that supports libre software. I know it’s hard but there are some areas like web development, which usually lets you use linux.
Practical difference: Both dnf and apt are slow as hell. Pacman is flying compared to them.
Some distros do not include all supported device firmware in the base system. You have to determine your wifi adapeter and install the firmware for it. You may want to use usb tethering from your phone for that.
I made a home inventory management software, because I don’t have much space in my flat, so I track every single piece of the compressed pile of boxes; with qr codes on them.
It’s a very simple app but you should have a printer to print qr codes for the boxes.
The documentation lacks some detail, so ask anything about it, if you want to try it.

EDIT: yeah I didn’t update the readme. The installation may not work. So tell me if you want to give it shot.
It looks like this in action btw:
You still had deep sleep until now? Lucky you. To me Dell forbided S3 way earlier.
What do you suggest?
That’s my problem with this. It tries to be a desktop display server protocol without unifying all desktop requirements. Sure, X11 is old and have unnecessary things that aren’t relevant anymore, however, as someone who builds their own DE, (e.g.: tiling window managers) I see it as the end of this masterrace. Unless everybody moves to wlroots. Flameshot, for example, is already dealing with this, having at least 5 implementations only for linux, and only wlroots and x11 are standards.
Also, imo, having windows in windows is useful when you want to use your favourite terminal in your favourite IDE. But as you said DEs can implement it simply. Let’s say wlroots will implement this but others can decide otherwise. And for those the app won’t run.
Another example, that affects my app personally, is the ability to query which monitor is the pointer at. Wayland doesn’t care having these so I doesn’t care supporting wayland. And I"m being sad about this because X is slowly fading away so new apps will not run on my desktop.
Moreover with X11 I could write my own hotkey daemon in my lanuage of choice, now I would have to fork the compositor.
Do I see it wrong?
I’m a contractor and I use linux if that counts :D
