Yeah I wasn’t talking about getting it the legal way. They don’t care unless you’re a business.

I understand you want people to switch to Linux but

1. 90 weeks is far away. It drops in October 2025
2. You’ll still get security updates for a few years
3. After that there will be paid support which people will get around and find ways to install
4. Windows 10 LTSC (best version of Windows IMO) still exists. The Enterprise LTSC version will have support till 2027 and the IoT version will have support till 2032. You can get them if you know how to look around

I mean Dolphin gives a prompt for the same thing when I launch it.

Yup, the AUR is a godsend. I barely touch the other methods and only use AppImages when I’m too lazy.

X is old and works for the most part but fixing stuff or adding features is hard.

Wayland is new and is supposed to be a successor to X, do what it couldn’t do and don’t repeat the mistakes from it. It should be a drop-in replacement like pipewire but isn’t. Features take long time to develop as devs are engrossed thinking of the best solution to make it happen. A lot of proposed solutions are dismissed as well.
