The FSF has a page dedicated to this exact question: https://www.gnu.org/distros/common-distros.html.en

Why do I want this? There are already many browsers available, and this one isn’t even (apparently: yet) FOSS, so why should I be excited about this one?

such organizations already exist, e.g. Software in the Public Interest (most well known for hosting Debian)

both lemmy.world and lemmy.ca are working for me right now? Maybe they’ve come back up.

KDE uses “meta” to refer to the Windows key. Emacs uses “meta” to refer to the Alt key. You are correct that GNOME calls the Windows key “Super”.

This causes some confusion, obviously we Linux users don’t want to call it the Windows key, so the best solution is to call the keys “Super” and “Alt”, those are unambiguous.

Mostly the same as Windows, ie for opening the application launcher menu, as well as for a variety of global shortcuts.

The menu key is a convenient place to put the compose key.

KDE mostly calls it Meta, GNOME calls it “Super”.

I don’t think I understand the question.

The Internet isn’t supposed to have a “center”, at all. If it ever does, something has gone wrong.

Federation, like what we’re doing here, can make it so that everyone’s personal “center” can be whatever platform they choose to use most of the time. Someone trying to communicate may be using an entirely different one, it will still get federated to whatever you prefer.

Well, for most real-world programming languages, you do have to teach syntax. You do not have to use the word “syntax”, you can call it something else.

Obviously there are things like Scratch that are intended for your exact use case.

I don’t think you need to use the word “syntax” at all when teaching anyone basic coding. There are many ways to paraphrase the concept. It is kind of an odd question, why that specific word?

What’s the difference between USA and USB?

One connects to all devices and accesses the data. The other is a hardware standard.

your first sentence not all verbs :D

Do you only want to geotag, without editing the files any further? If yes, you can do this on the command line with exiftool or exiv2.

If you are also going to edit your photos, then AFAICT darktable preserves all EXIF data, though I am not familiar specifically with the HDR data you refer to. It allows geotagging by dragging on a map.

The same applies to all other app stores, there won’t be any to move to.

I no longer use IRC; when I did, I used KVIrc near the end, which seems to still be getting releases.

on my work computer (Windows 11), I’m pretty sure this was the default and I didn’t have to configure it to do that? I use this all the time because part of my current job is to send screenshots to people in order to verify that software is working correctly. :D

Shotcut does everything I need and tends to “just work”, better than most others. I think I tried OpenShot once or twice and it didn’t work so well, but don’t remember details.

I can think of plenty that is arguably wrong with at least the GDPR: the definition of “processing of personal data” is so broad that it can arguably cover way more than intended, and the extraterritorial effect sets a precedent that governments can regulate the Internet beyond their borders. But that is off-topic here and I’m not exactly in a mood to write essays about it…

The DMA is one of the very rare examples where it’s a good thing that governments are regulating technology. Most of the time it is a bad thing, but requiring interoperability and sideloading – it’s kind of sad that it’s necessary to solve that by regulation and market forces alone don’t work, yet here we are.
