It works mostly for the technical side.
For the sound, preferences and personal comfort, it's a bit hard to get precise. The graphs can help a bit, but it's also hard to understand them, even more when they don't look the same between reviewers.

Wtf are you talking about. Linux isn't a distro.
And the example isn't a "only noobs use it".
It's an example of an exploit existing since many years. And which could have appeared in a random package, while staying invisible.
(not a virus directly from a package manager or distro tho).
However nothing prevents someone from hosting malware on github, or fake "safe" distros.
There can also be a slip and people not seeing a project turned into malware.
Bitwarden is very good. And it is not getting hacked every year as Lastpass... (another free password manager).
I also saw that proton has launched proton pass as a password manager. Seems to also be free, but only the app, I think is open source, and not the server. It also works less well than bitwarden, being new it can be expected.
Equalizer APO + Peace equalizer (as the interface) + AutoEq (for the automatic equalization).
It allows to change do advanced and automatic equalization on audio devices, being audio outputs or inputs as mics.
AutoEq is the automatic part. It is more focused on Headphones/earbuds/iems presets. It's an automatic tool trying to equalize measured (by a compatible reviewer source, which is already in the database) headset to match the target the user wants, Then export a file for the software someone uses (peace for example).
As a common preset, the harman over-ear 2018/in-ear (depending on the device) is pretty good, but other presets are available too.
MPC-HC https://github.com/clsid2/mpc-hc (the still maintained one).
For me VLC struggled on very high bitrate videos. While MPC-HC was smooth and used less resources.
However it is not available for Linux. So if it's a software for Linux, I guess VLC is the best choice.
MPC-HC instead of VLC https://github.com/clsid2/mpc-hc (the still maintained one) (windows only)
For me VLC had issues to stream very high bitrate content on my pc. MPC-HC used less resources while being smooth too.
It can be more than a fine.
They could be forced to sell parts of Google, to stop paying browsers, or whatever the court decides. However if the court decides in favor of the antitrust, then it will also put in place a precedent which will impact the other companies too.
This reviews https://youtu.be/j-xLIQLMWV4?si=bbG1AeMEMCNq61GD says it's pretty easy to drive them with anything.
Not sure about amps, and they are expensive headphones, so not that interested in more reviews.
That is not true at all.
Epos "still" has great mics on the h6 pro.
Corsair has very good mics on the premium headset (virtuoso), and the wired hs80.
Razer also has a very good mic on the blackshark v2 pro 2023 (not the old one).
Hyperx has a very good mic on their wired cloud 3.
Drop x Sennheiser has a good mic on the pc38x.
Beyerdynamic has a very good mic on their mx300 gen2
Audio Technica has be best ever mic on a headset currently on the m50xsts (or other with the same mic, not sure if they have other similar ones).
And all of these mic sound better than what modmic has currently not discontinued.
Sure with the budget, space, and maybe even enough noise isolation or when you can get open headphones...
But how much would a good enough studio headphone cost? Because from what I understand from studio headphones it's perfectly calibrated headphones?
Now image your someone without the proper budget to get 1k$ headphones, and no space for open sound. what would you buy?
Maybe beyerdynamic? But for me the clamp force is too high.
Akg? They are cheap, but damn it was impossible for me to wear the akg371 as they were too shallow and had no protection for the driver plastic, and the way they were build made sure I had holes for the sound to get out...
Sadly audio is very subjective, on comfort, space, and sound.
Do you know how much cost is involved in developing a peace of software?
Get what you need > a lot of time and good view of the company is needed.
Then either get a company to do it > expensive + no control on the software.
Or/
Make it yourself > extremely expensive + control on the software.
Get the right people > hiring campaign > expensive
Then these hired people represent more people to pay each month > expensive.
If there aren't right people, you need to teach the devs how to work on it > expensive formations and it's done on the working time, so double expensive.
Then time invested in creating the Linux distro adapted to the company > time, testing, mistakes, redo, undo... expensive.
(let's not forget about taxes and obligations towards the new workers).
