This is the reason given in Australia by Parks Victoria

LEAVE NO TRACE

Advocate for minimal-impact practices wherever you go. Many people are surprised to find no bins in national parks. Waste attracts native animals, which can change their natural behaviour and harm both natural and cultural sites, as well as your personal belongings.

Always bring rubbish bags (and one for your neighbour) and take all your rubbish home. Help educate others about the importance of leaving the park pristine, minimising your impact on the delicate balance of the ecosystem.

I switched when I had an internet outage and couldn’t log into Plex locally to watch my own media. Very happy with Jellyfin since then.

I’ll stick with Mastodon. Is it a slight improvement over Musk, though? I guess.

No idea why you’d pre-order this. The sensible route is to get a trial of Game Pass (or a free month doing Microsoft Rewards) and try it out. If you like it, either buy it or continue with your Game Pass subscription.
