I’ve heard this is a thing on Linux but have never been able to get this working myself. Idk if it’s something to do with my distro’s defaults or what but in my experience this hasn’t been a thing at all.
My biggest pain points with Linux have mostly been audio related. Audio is serviceable for general users but whenever it comes to either professional audio work or high end consumer audiophile stuff, Mac and Windows unfortunately blow Linux out of the fucking water at this point in time.
My PC is only like, 5 years old and Windows 11 doesn’t support it. Windows 10 ran smoothly, it does RTX, modern games run fine on it, the most graphically intensive AAA games run a little poorly but still run nonetheless, and I can always lower the graphics settings to get better performance. It’s certainly more powerful and higher spec than a lot of the office PCs that do run Windows 11. Buuuut the motherboard doesn’t have a TPM 2.0 chip so it’s archaic e-waste as far as Microsoft is concerned. It’s been running Linux just fine for the last year and a half or so, and not once have I ever felt that my PC is too old and needs to be upgraded or replaced.
Then you’ve unwittingly installed Windows 11
Adding a birthday field is not privacy invading in itself the same way brandishing a knife is not assault in itself.
Context matters. I’ve held knives before and it was completely inocuous. I’ve used knives to chop vegetables, to spread butter, to carve something out of wood, etc. If I pulled out a knife while in a heated argument with someone that’d be a whole other story, and I don’t think “I was just holding the knife, is it illegal to hold knives now?” would exonerate me from accusations of intent or threat to assault someone.
In any other context adding a date of birth field would be inocuous. You’re not required to use it after all. But in this context as I understand it, it is explicitly infrastructure for age verification, even if it is not age verification in itself.
Now someone’s gotta combine the two and make GNU/Linux without GNU or Linux
Yeah, in your Firefox settings. Click the menu with the 3 horizontal lines in the top right corner, click “More Tools”, and then click on “Customize Toolbar…”. On the bottom left corner there should be a checkbox that says “Title Bar”. Uncheck that and then click “Done” in the bottom right.

“Listen kid, I’ve been on the internet much longer than you have. Back in my day we used to spin fidget spinners while watching LeafyIsHere videos and It’s The Nutshack memes during class instead of doing work. But you wouldn’t know nothin’ bout that, that’s ancient internet stuff right there”

My apologies, this data is misleading. Most of the new traffic is actually just me mass downloading and data hoarding porn across thousands of VMs. Whenever I need to rub one out I ssh into one of them and watch it that way. Keeps it off my main machine and keeps my browser history clean.
This UGLY son of a bitch is playing SUPER FUN games and basically, YOU ARE FUCKING STUPID
How? …Just install this Linux distro >
As someone who switched from Windows to Linux Mint about a year ago and had a pretty easy time adapting, sometimes I see the advice that beginners should use an immutable distro instead of Mint and am inclined to disagree, but then I remember the Linux Mint subreddit has like, at least one person a week who somehow manages to accidentally install the GNOME desktop and makes a post like “Wtf I started up my computer and it looks weird now why does it look like this” lol
I don’t think OP’s link mentions it but iirc one of the major changes in Audacity 4.0 is supposed to be non-destructive editing. At least that’s what I think I remember hearing like a year or more ago.
