About a year ago, I trialed both Proton Mail and Tuta mail. Proton mail worked out better for my needs, but YMMV. 

One nice thing about switching providers is that it gives you the opportunity to rid yourself of years of built-up cruft and spam.

I use Ventoy to boot everything but macOS. Those installers need their own partitions on the SSD.

Do yourself a favor and skip the USB drive - they are ridiculously slow compared to a compact external SSD. I found a cheap m.2 enclosure on Amazon and put an old SSD in it and the speed difference is breathtaking.

My SSD has a bunch of Linux distros grouped into folders along with Windows 10 & 11, every macOS from 10.13 to present, along with Rescuezilla, Hiren’s and a few others I can’t remember at the moment.

Rescuezilla was my #1 go-to during my days of distro hopping. Makes it super easy to try out a distro on bare metal instead of a VM.

I am having this exact same problem on my MacBook Air running Ultramarine Linux, a Fedora derivative.

I finally gave up and plugged in a Panda USB Wi-Fi adapter. Not ideal, but it works.

I’m a huge fan of Joplin. It runs on everything and syncs to either your or their cloud. Been using it for a few years now.

Are we really complaining about gendered pronouns in source code notes for a web browser?

Is that what we are doing?

There are mountains of bigger fish to fry, y’all. Social change doesn’t happen overnight. It can take decades or longer.

Widespread language changes have historically taken decades or even centuries to occur.

Ask any woman or person of color over the age of 50 about the CONSTANT slights or worse endured every day for most of their lives for some perspective.

Fight the good fight, absolutely, but this isn’t worth getting angry over - at least not from what I’ve read so far.

Friends don’t let friends buy HP printers. I’ve been in IT for 25 years. The only printer brand I use or recommend for the past 15 years is Brother.
