Did I say replaceable battery already?

Fairphone, Samsung Xcover.

The Samsung Xcover series only killed the headphone jack with release of the Xcover 7 Pro a mere 3 months ago. All this time a series of phones from one of the world's top brands were available even in the US.

You can get the 2024 model and receive Android updates until 2031 because of Samsung's 7 years of updates policy. Xcover phones also come with an SD slot and user replaceable battery, btw.

HEADPHONE JACK - I scream into the void

Then buy phones with them. They exist.

they also offer KDE Neon

Not for much longer. It apparently proved to be a maintenance nightmare.

Kubuntu is ok for a new person on linux?

I want to install apps/programms via flatpak

The second line is the argument why all the Ubuntus aren't for newcomers anymore. Canonical attempts to push users into failed technologies (Snap instead of Flatpak in this case).

So if you want to keep using Kubuntu over something like Fedora KDE, you are expected to learn how steer around these artificial limitations.

Btw, KDE are currently in the process of developing KDE Linux. It is not done, yet, but may be worth to check into from time to time.

“we want to be the Apple of the Linux World”

Funny that they constantly fail at that ambition, though.

They cracked down on extremism since then, but it’s conceivable there’s a few left.

Also the most extreme ones are the ones that died first and after broad mobilization the relative proportion shrank naturally. That's just maths.

And even if these two were not the case, Ukraine has a simple explanation:

When asked about one of the two Russian groups fighting on Ukraine's side, one being extreme racists who want to make Russia smaller to get rid of regions with non-Russian ethnicities, a government official, maybe even Zelensky personally, said to the press that Ukraine does not have the luxury to pick who fights on their side when the alternative is rape and genocide.

I’ll just move to a distro that isn’t affected.

Just use Steam, Lutris, Heroic, and whatever as Flatpak. Flatpak solved the problem years ago. 32bit libraries there are just runtimes working independently of the host OS packaging.

It's fine to relegate x86-32 to a sandboxed environment.

“Drops the Linux build to focus supporting proton” makes as much sense as “drops the windows build to focus supporting direct x in wine”

They could target WSL for Windows compatibility.
