Windows randomly nuking the EFI partition is very much more a reality.

First keeb soldered, second keeb soldered too, third keeb designed, 3D printed and handwired 😅
"Cloud Native" means uBlue's OS images are basically Docker images, but meant tu run on bare metal instead of inside virtualization, that are built automatically with GitHub actions.
The project itself is super interesting. It's not a distro, it's an alternative automated build pipeline toolkit for Silverblue/CoreOS that lets anyone build their perfect atomic image. It's still 100% Fedora+rpmfusion under the hood.
UBlue's official images have massive quality of life improvements over Silverblue.
TL;DR: Liberty wants Perez on the grid at the Mexican GP so they can sell tickets.
Money saving his ass once again.
Yeah Cura feels a bit raw sometimes. I switched to Orca a couple weeks ago and although I can't say there's a massive difference in print quality, printing itself looked and sounded much smoother. I think Orca is more careful about acceleration than Cura.
Your OS doesn't matter. Printers are dumb and only understand Gcode, which is basically a series of steps to follow for printing your part (move the head this amount in that direction while extruding that much etc.). Producing that code is the slicer's job. What you want is a slicer that works perfectly on Linux. And good news, all open-source slicers work perfectly on Linux. What you need tho is a slicer that includes your printer's profile.
Try Cura or Prusaslicer (available as Flatpaks) or Orcaslicer (Appimage for now but will move to Flatpak eventually).
Yes. Tuxedo is German, Slimbook Spanish, Starlabs British, NovaCustom Dutch.... Framework is US/Taiwanese but sells within select EU countries and the UK. AFAIK S76 is US/Canada only.
Edit: most of these actually ship worldwide but won't collect VAT and probably won't honor warranty claims outside their territory.
Tuxedo, Framework, Slimbook, System76, Starlabs are Linux-first vendors with an excellent track record.
Holy shit. I feel that pain. See also: the upstairs neighbor's TV.
I've never heard of Linux destroying a Windows partition unless there's a blatant user error.
