Barely upgraded to 6.14 and a new version is here. They are coming so fast. Have they shortened the time between new versions or is it just my feeling?
Awesome, Can't wait until we get rid of bloated spyware that is Windows and move to more open and privacy-respecting platforms. Hopefully also the expanding availability of GNU/Linux mean more properly made native games.
Nope. Much easier for me and actually possible to use a Linux distro without systemd, but it is almost impossible to do it without GNU tools. Also the principles and values of freedom and openness and promotion of those are much stronger with GNU than with systemd.

Yes it is (https://chimera-linux.org/) and even if they're are on the OS, they're not the most important part of the userland, they're there for CLI users to use. They're not important for setting up the userland, systemd is.

I don't think that's relevant in the context of a proprietary distro.
Happy birthday and thanks to all the KDE hackers for the gift of the best desktop environment on GNU/Linux and on computers in general. Light years ahead of anything else. Also so many very nice applications. Often winder how you can even manage to do it all.
Thats a separate topic. The issue is that people claim that Microsoft does not respect privacy, while [insert their favorite electronic brand here] does.
