Debian packports provided what I needed when bullseye had outdated packages before the bookworm release. For qemu, libvirt, kernel and ZFS.
One downside of testing is that it isn't monitored by the Debian security team. Combined with the fact that updates are delayed compared to unstable, it can take many weeks to get important security updates.
I found that system76 is well priced compared to Windows brands. Avoid paying for the Windows license fee!
It does benefit RedHat, but that seems fair to me. We're getting a great free Linux distribution in return
I have been using desktop Linux for years and never realized... thanks!
Metrics can be very valuable, the people who really care can just uncheck the box as part of the initial installation. I regularly submit crash reports which contain far more personal information. I think this is a good move.
It still works as it always did for me
PayPal also supports debit cards which is great for countries where owning a credit card is rare. I don't own a credit card and I know very few people who do.
