I agree 100%. It’s amazing how stable these distros are.

I agree that those issues can be frustrating (I came from arch and now use bazzite, so I do have some cli headaches sometimes), but most newbies are not going to even open a terminal imho. For them it is unmatched in terms of stability and ease-of-use. I do agree with you that anyone who tinkers with electronics or software should start with something else though.

I’m not disagreeing with the opinion that imperialism is one of the biggest large-scale problems facing humanity, and that the US is the current worst offender. I’m just pointing out that at the root of imperialism are a few powerful people attempting to rule over the rest of us. Tech-feudalism in the digital world is another huge problem, as is the rise of fascism. And they all come from class warfare, at least in my humble opinion. But I am also not pretending to be as informed on history and current events as many other here, and I am no attempting to lecture anyone as if I know better. That would just be decisive and counterproductive.

I agree, I just like to remind people what the end goal is.

The only conflict that matters is the class conflict. Everything else is a distraction. Eat the rich.

I’m assuming that “phone bo” means phone book? If that’s true then I’m at 20/20. I plan to live forever. So far, so good.

Hell yeah. I am the IT guy in my family, I have a bunch of S7s for the wife and kids with eOS, and everybody is more then happy with them. I got a fairphone 5 a awhile ago for myself, and while it did cost €600+, I wanted the modularity and reparability, I just wanted to support that type of company and try it out. Hopefully I will have it for 10 years or so.

Jokes on you, I’m into this shit. I have seen these guys live, in a bar deep in the woods of 'sconnie. Those were the days…

I made the jump to signal, and those that refused to come with got relegated to SMS. But it’s not always that easy. Sorry that you have to deal with that BS.
