Yeah. Reminds me of a dependency fuckup with steam on pop os that uninstalled the desktop environment when trying to install steam.

My point is that if that is the case (and I do understand why) then i can't possibly recommend Linux to people that don't want their OS to be their hobby, because as for my experience they will come across something that needs some command line input.

But that's in my experience sadly very necessary especially in the beginning when you are getting into Linux. So getting into Linux has quite a steep learning curve because not knowing what you are copy pasting can have terrible consequences, but understanding everything before you copy paste is very demanding.
When out comes to my main rig, i never had the experience of everything just working out of the box. There was always something that required me searching for obscure fixes, hoping for the best.

This looks like a moderator approval thingie. Normal users probably won't see anything like that.

Zement!

The Dev confirmed that the trackers which are part of the ads plugin are not loaded when purchasing the app.

I am with you on this one. I do think it would be appropriate to have a disclaimer in the beginning, saying that these words used to have a different meaning, and that in the context of the time they were written they meant different things than today.
There is a German book where this is done that uses the N word for people of color.
This is the more appropriate way of handling this, because i am totally with you: we shouldn't change what was written in books. If we start doing that, we destroy what authors have done, and in a sense we also edit history, because in this case we try to erase that these words were used in another context back in the days.

That's good to know. My main gripe is that changing the email address for every service is so tiring. I've got >200 accounts in my password manager I'd need to change the mail address in, and from previous experience i know that the complicity of this can range from "just go to the settings" over "message the moderators" to "you just can't".
It's shocking how complicated it can be.

No. Because changing email providers is a royal pain in the ass. Changed from Google to Ctemplar and from that to proton a year later after ctemplar went down.
I am not going to use smaller email providers because of that experience, and proton still seems to be the best of both worlds.
I absolutely hate that i am supporting a CEO like that with my money but I'm not in the mood to migrate anytime soon. Took me more than a whole weekend last time.

I am flabbergasted.

Stretch it!
