Some really weird suggestions.

Free Software does not have a country of origin.

  • NixOS, uBlue, AerynOS poorly all rely on Github (Microsoft), but are far better distros than Ubuntu or Mint
  • Librewolf is better than Waterfox and way more common
  • Ecosia uses Bing, Kagi uses Yandex and is shady. Metager, SearX, Swisscows and more are actually good
  • Android, iOS -> GrapheneOS. No iodeOS, they are insecure and not comparable. Same for Fairphone and /e/OS. GrapheneOS is free software but also mainly in the US

Can you ellaborate the Linux Distros? I'm considering switching from Windows to Linux and currently informing myself about the different distros. Why are they better than Mint and Ubuntu or what is wrong with them?

Hi there, good luck! Maybe I can help.

I hyperfocused a bit on this question and made a structured post about it.

Sounds like a good suggestion!
