Seems like a great opportunity for ISP to start charging whatever they want to install their crap. Don’t want to pay for the installation and use their router? No internet for you!

It doesn’t really matter which is easier to install because only a very small percentage of people are comfortable with installing an OS of any kind. The vast majority of people just keep whatever OS was pre-installed. 99% of the time that’s Windows or MacOS.

Hopefully 2026 brings some more mainstream options to buy computers with Linux pre-installed. I think that’s unlikely though, other than Steam OS for some handhelds and Valve’s new hardware.

It would be great if Lenovo or Dell or others prominently featured Linux options to try to capitalize on all the Microsoft hate. I know they already sell some Ubuntu options but they aren’t featured or advertised. I suspect they are afraid of pissing off Microsoft.

I don’t know, sorry. I use Pop on my laptop for general computer use and I only game on a Steam Deck.

I’ve been on alpha since alpha 7. It’s great! There have been consistent updates throughout, and any of the minor issues I experienced early in the release have already been fixed.

I switched to Niagara a few years ago when Nova was sold. True game changer once you get used to it (which doesn’t take too long). It works great on phone or tablet. And there is still something SO satisfying about watching the alphabet and apps move with your thumb. It’s so smooth and the haptic feedback is perfect (running on Pixel 7, GrapheneOS, and a cheap old Samsung tablet A8).

I have never heard of the Epstein files but I sure hope they release the Trump/Epstein files soon.

So awesome. Thanks again for making this! I’m sure it took a considerable amount of time and effort.

This is amazing, thank you for putting it together. I recommend that you remove all the ones that don’t have a citation (or add citations if possible). There are so many(!) and most of them have cites. The cited ones alone are already plenty impactful. I think having uncited allegations detracts from the legitimacy, especially when the very first one is uncited.

For a few years, even the FBI officially recommended that everyone should use an adblocker. They recently removed that PSA from their website, I believe with the new administration:
