It’s rock solid and the desktop is very close to what people coming from Windows would expect. It’s just a very good beginner distro, not necessarily something that more advanced users would choose.

Ironic, the fact that I hate change is the whole reason I ended up using Linux. I felt that Mint was closer to Windows 7 than 8.0 at the time.

Not sure if I read that correctly, but I don’t think this has ever been the case?

So it’s not coming to Europe then.
That’s odd, I’ve got a Pixel myself and Aurora just worked right out of the box on GrapheneOS. First time I’m hearing about Aptoide though, I’ll check it out.
Since you’ve already gotten some solid answers, I just want to point out that you can use Aurora to download and update apps from the PlayStore without the need for a Google account or PlayServices on your device.

North Korea keeps getting propped up because nobody wants to deal with a nuclear capable nation collapsing and the absolutely massive refugee crisis it would cause. The Chinese govt is not too friendly with the Kim dynasty, even less so since they intensified their relations with Russia.
Funny how you can immediately tell the text was not written by Trump himself because it is way to coherent.

Futo is open source. It’s not FOSS though.
The positive aspects are that it’s highly customizable and supports a large number of language addons. The downside is that development is pretty much dead, the swipe feature not being very accurate and the autocorrect only working in English. There’s also a large amount of inconveniences and minor bugs that made it tedious to use in comparison to Futo.
The Nvidia issue is overblown IMO. Yes, it used to be petty bad a couple of years ago with bugs and glitches all over the place, especially with Wayland. These days not so much. Just use the proprietary Nvidia drivers and you will have a solid experience. It’s honestly been over a year since I last had an issue that I could narrow down to Nvidia hardware.
Just make sure to read some reports from people with the same model of laptop. Laptops with very specific hardware can have compatibility issues.
