Brother is pretty analogous and you can refill the toner cartridges!
Classic arch Linux is the way to go imo. If you need something a little more turn key, I would go with linux mint Debian edition! Debian was the first distro I ever used, an I think if you feel at home there, linux mint Debian edition might be what you’re looking for.
Get off Chrome. It might be used by most, but it collects so much information and Google is neutering ad blockers. Not to mention that not using Firefox contributes to the monoculture of webkit and blink, which has a long list of problems. Overall, Firefox is better for users and the web overall.
Definitely Taylor Lorenz. She’s almost always on trending, but she’s a journalist always posting about twitter and musk’s controversies, very interesting content.
We Distribute is kind of like a publication about the fediverse. Great content.
Linus Torvalds. This one’s pretty obvious.
But I’m still looking too! If you’re into tech, you will almost definitely find something for you on mastodon, especially free software. Good luck!
There is not a single “Pro US” belief. I would say most people on both sides of the political spectrum truly believe they are “Pro US.” Everyone has a different perspective on what is best for the country, and it really depends on what part of that country you’re from and what your priorities are.
In this context, I’m really not sure. Perhaps they meant they prioritizing American users? Perhaps they meant prioritizing the US economy on the global stage? I’m really not sure.
In any case, we are happy to have you here!
