I've checked in on it for the last several months and only picked up like 3 games that sounded interesting. And those only because they were free/included in my prime subscription.

Valve is Augustus Caesar. A benevolent dictator that did much to improve the quality of life of his citizens, but still a dictator. They've centralized control over the PC gaming sphere and brought tons of legitimate improvements to the hobby. Now they have no legitimate competitors. Epic Games is a mosquito bite, Prime Gaming is nothing, GOG is the closest thing and even they're miles behind.
It only took a couple of generations to go from Augustus to Nero. I do not anticipate good things once Gaben retires/dies.
I expect nothing less from Satan's maggoty cum fart.
Man, this infographic is like, EXACTLY why people are scared of Linux, lol.
It has a lot of good info but it's just so overloaded. Can't decide what story it wants to tell so it tells like 7 of them.
(Beside the point, but Mussolini totally did not run an efficient train network, it was a cluster fuck like everything else he did)
Not that there's much reason to be charitable towards Musk, but if you're in the mood:
Even if you don't think so, they've essentially been grabbing handfuls of cables and yanking then out, no guarantees they even know HOW to restore everything how it was.
One that I'm hoping to start soon is Songs of Syx. It has city biker elements kind of the realm of Dwarf Fortress or Rimworld, but with a greater focus on economy. And, it zooms it to a much better-defined world map game than either of those two offer.
The expectation that a social media that optimistically has 0.1% the user base of reddit, can support the same level of community fragmentation, is not realistic. I've been here long enough to see numerous failed attempts at starting a community for My Favorite Niche, rather than just posting about it in More General Community. You usually get a single "welcome" post by the creator, and then nothing more. If you're lucky, the creator will make a small handful of their own posts before giving up.
Post about your favorite TV show in a tv/movies community, don't make a new one just for your show. You'll get way more engagement
This is my experience playing with FreeBSD.

The thing with Debian distros (like Ubuntu, Mint, PopOS) is that they're extremely stable releases. This does not necessarily mean everything "just works", but rather that they will not experience major code changes that could disrupt a working system. This means that if some apps don't work out of the box, that state is going to be pretty much the same in any distro based on the same Debian version.
A more "agile" distro might be less stable, but as a result could see some updates to apps that Debian is still lagging behind on. Fedora is probably the "next step" in this direction: it's still reliable but gets updates more frequently than Debian (it's sort of a "proving ground" for code before it gets pulled into Red Hat, which is a distro focused on long-term stability).
As for desktop environments: I've always thought GNOME was the most Mac-like DE, but KDE has enough configuration options that you can kind of turn it into anything you want. Since this is on a very old laptop, you might consider LXDE, which isn't the prettiest DE, but it's super lightweight and might let you squeeze out a bit more performance if you're wasting a lot of compute power just rendering the desktop.
