This is the thing, I think desktop Linux has everything I need and the edges cases I can script. I find most tools much more useful to use on the cli. Web stuff is usually provided via a browser and some sort of application running within the browser.
The only thing Id prefer a UI for is image/video editing, and while the tools for Linux for these usually aren't as pretty, they are usually more functional.
If I can't change some software when I need too, this annoys me, which is why I use Linux. Slick apps with pretty UI and really well defined UX while nice, are normally very restrictive by design...
Most people who don't care about the level of functionality and customisation I'm thinking of, normally don't venture beyond the web anyway, so having mint and an up to date browser is likely a nicer experience for them than other OSes.
Or they're using a phone, which to be fair does currently need work with Linux...
Maybe Russia could help the climate by not blowing up lots of stuff in Ukraine
That said, why freeze those assets and not just take them, giving them to developing countries as part of a climate change package would be fine as long as it incurs no future legal obligation to Russia. Although, loans sharks just break your legs if you don't pay, they don't generally follow legal definitions.
