Developers decide what platforms they want to support based on what resources they have available and the kinds of users they wish to target. They create versions of software where they expect to garner enough market share or based on what gives them the most return on investment. Even at a 4% market share, Linux is still pretty much an edge case for many companies, though I agree that a corporation like Samsung can absolutely afford to make their software available on Linux

Yup, using the bang !w anywhere within the search

That's something I'd like to find too. I've been using Textra Pro for years, but I have yet to find a FOSS alternative that rivals it

Not OP, but two issues I've encountered:

  • No DRM means some streaming sites don't work. But I can easily hop over to another browser for that
  • There is no global zoom to increase webpage size on all websites. This can be resolved by installing an extension

Otherwise, Zen has been amazing. I fully switched from Firefox 5 months ago, no regrets

Canada does have Interac E-Transfer, which is already used as a free alternative to the likes of PayPal. It is also possible to use e-transfer for business transactions. An e-transfer system similar to Alipay where you scan a QR code to pay would be quite handy to make payments at stores. Would it be possible for credit card merchants to use e-transfer for their transactions?

I have no mouth, and I must clean

Portugal doesn't have a property based golden ticket visa as of October 2023 due to concerns that it was affecting real estate prices in cities like Lisbon and Porto. But you can still donate 250K euro in cash or invest 500K euro in a local business that leads to job creation (among a couple other investment options). Another option for Portugal is the D7 visa, which requires you to live in the country 6 months the year for 5 years, but requires foreign income of 10K euro per year. Either way, after 5 years, you're eligible to apply for citizenship.

60% of the time it works every time

Unfortunately those aren't safe either :/ The article mentions how several subs for the game Luigi's Mansion got banned, even though they have nothing you do with Mangione

+1 for Libby. Also shout out to Z-Library, Library Genesis, and the Internet Archive for all the book epubs and pdfs you can find there

Or by connecting an Android phone to a computer, enabling USB debugging, launching a terminal and typing

adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.package.name.of.app

No root needed!

Try FitoTrack. I've been using it for awhile, measurements are very close to what Strava records. It does lack the social element though
