No you won't.

They won't throw more than a decade of work to the garbage because "30%" and Nvidia. Those issues can be fixed. Want them to be fixed? Stop complaining and contribute.

Why is Tux flipped, is this some sort of subliminal message? Is BigTech behind of this meme?

I suppose it's like asking a biologist what type of dishes would they do with a plant species they just discovered

I don't know about others but I like my phones to actually last.

My previous phone was a Sony Xperia z1. It went with me for more than 7 years working great until I accidentally dropped it and the screen cracked. Changed the screen but it wasn't the same thing and the battery suffered too so decided to get another one, a Xperia 1ii. This november it's going to be 5 years since I got it and it's still going absolutely great.

But on both times they went great not only because Sony happens to make great hardware but because LineageOS - I've used it on other phones since it was CyanogenMod. As not everything in the world is perfect Sony gives no flying fucks about updates so in two years your phone is not going to get more official updates - enter LineageOS, GrapheneOS or what you like. I'm grateful those things exist, have donated to them and it will be very sad if one of those Google stupid movements make them vanish.

The maintainer of X11Libre, Enrico Weigelt, is an anti-vaxer who already got scolded by Torvalds for writing bullshit on the kernel mailing list

Oh, so it's him. Dude got absolutely lucky Linus is on mild mode nowadays. On his prime the scold would've been of such epic proportions all the viruses he could have on his body would've leave him out of pure cringe.

Because choices, freedom... that kind of stuff. And I say this as a now long time KDE user who used to use GNOME in the beginning.

That being said, what made me flee to KDE was realizing that its devs somehow think they know their users better than their users know themselves so they decided to develop a software metaphor with a utterly specific way to do things. Not that it's a bad thing per se, they can do whatever they want if they don't hurt anything or anyone else - but I wish people coming into the Linux and FOSS world could have that as a kind of warning when the distro they choose to begin their journey happens to ship GNOME as default.

Wishing to have stable Qt6 Krita soon

And what do we see? Virtually unchanged phones.

You say this as if it was a bad thing.

Yes, shaving is a chore - when you have to do it on a daily basis.

As a professional bald fart for more than 15 years, one of the reasons I'm thankful to be able to work from home is that I no longer need to shave head+beard on a daily basis. I really dislike the "shade" so always tried to shave as close to the skin as possible, which took me up to half an hour. Now that I have a job I get to look like one of those wojak characters with aggressive baldness and not worry about shaving for days.

Granted, with a safety razor that time came down to like 20-25 minutes and got less nicks than with a disposable razor. But when I had the chance to get a Leaf razor that came down to 15-20 minutes and never got nicks again. And with that one it's like the best of the two worlds - multiple blades to speed and make easier the shaving process and the non-disposable razor with real cheap and superb blades.

It's because they think being dumb makes them tough.

I don't think there are any other options - as I understand that would require coloring an icon on the fly, wether a default icon or a custom icon

Not sure if this is what you're asking for but as with Dolphin 25.04.0 I can right-click a folder, select "Properties" (not sure if that's the actual name in english; or just hit Alt+Enter), click/tap the folder icon within the modal and search for a color in the search box - lots of tinted folders (but not so much colors, though) shipped with the default Breeze icon theme
