Getting a feeling there’ll be some uncomfortable ones

Nah, they’ll just ignore all the inconvenient questions.

The fact that freedesktop.org can just ban someone they don’t like makes them no less asshats.

XED is amazing, but I don’t get it why they’ve changed the name. Previous was better, IMO.

No, unfortunately. It is just the first thing that came to my mind reading your requirements.

Raspberry Pi 5/400 with Waydroid? Just a thought.

I hope that LadyBird could become a viable alternative as well.

Only one calendar on free tier? Thanks, but I’ll just stick to the local one.

Too bad I’ve switched to KeePassXC already.

This is why F-Droid exists.

No, optionally free is not enough.

Cool project! Is there any plans on releasing a mobile app in the future? I’m allergic to PWAs.

the most popular distribution still uses Snap

Ubuntu is the most popular? On server maybe, on desktop I doubt it.

Flatpak does not support CLI only applicatoins

It is not true. You can install Neovim as flatpak, for example.

Also some may like it more that Snap relies on AppArmor instead using the custom solution of Flatpak.

It only means, that on distros without AppArmor you get almost no sandboxing of snap applications.

The only advantage snap has is the ability to package drivers as snaps. Other than that there’s simply no reason to choose proprietary-backed snap over flatpak.

EDIT: Typos.

Snap? Can we not?

Libretube gives the error for me either straight away or after a few videos. Sometimes using a VPN and changing servers all the time helps.

Have you tried disabling the Piped proxy?

FreeTube is a desktop only app unfortunately.

I’ve linked FreeTube Android in my first comment, actually.

We can’t choose for you, unfortunately, only give you advice. My advice question is: Kubuntu and Debian (KDE Neon too, iirc) are an LTS distros, why would you chose them given your criteria?

For myself, I can recommend Bazzite or Aurora, if you are okay with using an immudable distro. They are both Fedora Atomic based, but Bazzite is gaming first, while Aurora is a general purpose distro.

openSUSE Tumbleweed is also amazing. It is rolling and generally one of the best KDE experiences you can get. It also has a snapper tool, which lets you to rollback to the state before the update or even further.

LibreTube works just fine if you disable proxying. FreeTube / FreeTube Kordova also works perfectly fine.

Mojeek is cool, but trying to search something in my first language results in 0 results find.

KDE, because it has all the features I need and also because I love theming and while QT apps can be themed pretty easily, GTK theming is somewhere between being absolutely horrible and non-existance.

Shiori is also good.
