me too, I loved Verdana before I discovered FOSS and DejaVu Sans is basically FOSS Verdana
For Python definitely PyCharm.
I remember that RMS’s position is that if someone (!) can change it (eg there is an “update firmware” button), it is a computer and should run free software. If no one can ever change it, it is a circuit. I think that makes some sense.
any distro except the ones listed here https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-distros.en.html technically already “took” that “route”
I know all of that. The “not have owners” wording was mainly a reference to https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/why-free.en.html
Free software doesn’t have owners, that is kinda the point of free licensing.
Someone else would do whatever Linus does now. I am not sure what exactly that is nowadays. In fact it is already now the case that if he (or any maintainer of any FOSS) did a bad job maintaining it, someone else could step in, do a better job and many people would switch to that fork.
yup, now that I think of it again, I think smooth scrolling is something different, autoscrolling is what I meant
In Firefox (and many forks of it) this is a setting in the app preferences, I think it is called “smooth scrolling autoscrolling” or similar.
In most other apps I do not think this is possible.

I have used both in the past, but now use neither of them, have been exclusively a KDE Plasma user for several years by now and no longer feel like trying much different.
GNOME 2 was the first DE I ever used on GNU/Linux, so MATE has a nostalgic feel to me. I do not think Xfce is very radically different from it in its functionality, although the default configuration is somewhat different. This is really mostly a matter of personal taste.
Things like that aren’t a feature of the terminal emulator, but of the shell. Try to find out which shell you’re using on Android, maybe try using that one on desktop too.
I wrote (not only, but some) more intelligent things on the Internet when I was a teenager.
If there were a universal answer to this, there wouldn’t be any others.
I myself currently use Debian (testing), have for some years now, but I have used other distros in the past too.
ideally donations like lots of other FOSS projects
KDE Plasma because I can make it look, feel and work mostly like Windows. I have to use Windows at work and don’t want to have to think too hard about differences between computers I use at work vs. at home.
Difficult to say without knowing your setup. The message is probably correct as written, the file system is for some reason read-only; perhaps you (intentionally or mistakenly) mounted it read-only, or your setup doesn’t support mounting it for writing.
I don’t know anything about NixOS, but this kind of thing can’t be unfamiliar to anyone who has been paying attention over the last ~10 years.
Eric S. Raymond was right: http://esr.ibiblio.org/?p=6918
I think that used to be the case more than it is now. Linux now uses the same printing system (CUPS) as macOS, and macOS printing has to work or Apple’s customers would be unsatisfied.
which Debian? Have you considered Debian testing or unstable?
KDE is a community of developers.
KDE Plasma is the desktop environment made by the KDE community.
This has been the correct terminology since 2009, much longer than “the past year or so”, but a lot of people do still call KDE Plasma just “KDE” colloquially, so maybe you have just been noticing people using the correct terminology more recently.
