Sadly no, ever web app company definitely doesn’t test under Firefox. I’m at the point where I use Firefox for general web browsing and Chromium for most web apps.

Reddit is terrible as a website. But it still has the communities that developed there over years, and they are an invaluable resource. They are definitely positioning themselves to pull a Digg, but until the Reddit-killer comes along with a mass exodus (and it doesn’t look like it’s gonna be Lemmy unfortunately) access to those communities will entail dealing with reddit.
On the one hand, sure. On the other hand, if there hasn’t been even a tiny bug fix or feature update in that long it calls into question (at least for me) whether when there is inevitably a breaking change, security issue with a library, whatever - that it will be addressed. If I don’t have some level of confidence in that, I’d rather not rely on the tool.
This kind of concern could be handled by contacting the developer or engaging with the community around the tool to see what the project status is, and why it isn’t being updated.
And its backed by the Linux Foundation! So it can survive things like Hashicorp’s silly attempt to claim copyright infringement.
I’ve used Hetzner for years without issue. Accessed through VPNs to the control panel without problems, changed password no issue, etc. I’ve never heard of them being “known for” the behavior you describe. This is just anecdote vs anecdote, though. I’d be interested to see some kinda evidence of what you’re saying.
Maybe not, but like you were told from another comment waze is also a Google/Alphabet product. As an otherwise near fully de-googled phone user, google maps is still the best option I know of.
He’s contributing a useful video, you’re contributing useless vitriol.
VM detection that I’ve run into is not that hard to bypass, but it does subjectively seem to result in a less performant VM (haven’t ran any tests to verify).
Almost everything you said here is false, with the exception of controversy over the developer. However, GrapeheneOS is far from a single developer project, and the former lead stepped down a little while ago.
I have a 6a, which I tolerate for GrapheneOS. The battery life is absolutely terrible.
If your company is implementing an app that is basically a toggle switch or power button, it’ll probably look like the first one. If your company is implementing an internal search engine, it’ll probably look like the second one. If anybody is implementing a data entry system meant to be used by trained individuals at a workstation, its gonna look like option three. You might as well complain about a CNC mill being more complicated than a screwdriver, they’re different tools.
Once they are cheaper and more durable I’ll buy one. Its still a new form factor that hasn’t been perfected yet, but that doesn’t mean its wrong for manufacturers to keep at it
Just convenience in the form of focusing on a user-friendly out of the box experience, really. That’s enough for me to use it over Debian on desktop, though I like Debian for servers.
It would be nice if they fixed their app so that when I set it to always dark mode, it actually stays in always dark mode. I don’t have much faith in UI improvements when that bug has plagued me for literally years, across Android versions and devices. But now the colors that suddenly blind me when it changes from dark to light will be different, yay?
9/11, yes, but what human rights did we lose from covid? Having to wear a mask for a while? Or being heavily encouraged to get a vaccine? …

I agree with you overall, but not your final conclusion. There are some distros with a history of security problems, like Manjaro. And some smaller distros may have a development team with a higher probability of shipping bugs, stability issues, or again security problems. So doing a little research on any distro of interest would be a good idea before installing.
I’d reccomend searching for “(distro) security problems”, “(distro) bugs”, and " (distro) controversies" before settling on an option.
Yeah, they are a cool company that has been serving this niche market for a long time.
Fair. My understanding is that not all of their lineup is equally Linux friendly. I had the original GPD pocket, which IIRC had a official Linux image. I didn’t even use that image, and had a functional Ubuntu install. Their newer devices are more mature from a hardware perspective, so it may be worth some research on those regarding features and Linux compatibility.
No, the PWA thing is a separate annoyance. What I find is that in a lot of web apps, the app mostly works fine but has bugs that break certain things or are seriously inconvenient in Firefox only. Two I’ve experienced recently are Nextcloud Office slideshows (I need to search for/open a bug report honestly) and a web based billing software we use at work.
