But I want to defend my -ism

I don’t have a habit of sharing identifiable information on the internet, but that goes doubly true here.

While using another instance, the one with the bee theme, I deleted a comment that I made sometime sooner. Out of curiosity I checked that same thread from the other instances, and there was one where my comment was still showing up.

Now, that comment wasn’t anything special. I said something wrong and found out later, so I deleted it.

But what this means is that, if I share something I shouldn’t, I don’t trust that every instance will delete my comment.

Strongly recommend this one. It’s also available for chromium, Safari, and iOS

This is a trick question, the real answer is that there weren’t real communist countries

1 - YMMV, as I mentioned

2- as a consequence, popular distros like Ubuntu and Fedora too. I expect other GUI's and therefore distros to follow

3- Didn't mean to imply they don't, what I meant is that they have issues and will make users jump to other ships.

4, 5 and 6, Lutris and later Steam itself when I was running out of ideas, and yes it does run on Linux as long you can figure out the correct proton/wine version or buy the game from Steam. Point here was that gaming on Linux can be convenient or very annoying, depending on the games you want to play. YMMV

I legit miss that feature when I'm using other PCs

It was the inverse for me. Windows 7 was always a nightmare to set up drivers, it was common to manually download the wifi drivers from the laptop's brand website. I groaned whenever someone asked me to help set up their PC.

Windows 10 just works out of the box. The only downside for me is aesthetics, I always preferred Aero.

The rest, enslaved

Just correcting because your comment insinuated that google doesn’t have significant influence over android, which is far from the truth. They could as well own it.

I didn’t mean to dispute or address the rest of the comment.

The Android Open Source Project isn’t owned by Google

One of those things that technically is true but in practice it isn’t. Just like chromium. Google is the main influencer of the project and it’s naive to think otherwise.
