Generally just use multiple sources, I used Ground News for quite a while.

Every news outlet will have their biases, that is completely normal everyone has biases, even when you have multiple people reviewing the content, only a fraud will tell you they're completely unbiased. So just seek multiple sources, preferably from also multiple countries and languages when applicable.

everyone has and always had an agenda.

Aside from that, generally I can agree, the commodification of news and profit-seeking, as often is the case, have ruined everything.

If I may ask, what are you switching to? cause in terms of privacy (without sacrificing usability and other important factors) the phone market looks like a hot pile of garbage. Well I guess FairPhones exist and they're about as good as you can get but still runs android.

After spending some time volunteering in Ukraine I concluded that probably the best option to ethically buy clothes might just be to buy the Made in UA clothes from Ukrainian local stores tbh.

Sorry but saying Linux users don't like paying for things is just not true. In fact stats about gaming from Humble Bundle (I think, don't remember exactly) demonstrates the opposite: that Linux users will happily pay and on average more than windows users.

As for paying maintainers of important packages etc I think states (and corpos) should start doing it given how much of the IT infrastructure depends on them.

Again: According to Adobe itself, 98% of computer users don't use photoshop AT ALL. That includes windows users. It's a problem only a few people have.

I need you to understand 98% of windows users (and computer users in general) don't need or use photoshop and advanced photo editing

It's not the only real option tho. First of all a vast majority of those buying big trucks and cars don't need a truck and aren't hauling shit, they are buying them for a status symbol, second of all vehicles that are legal in Europe, with their stricter safety standards etc, are legal in the US, you can buy the smaller vehicles I'm talking about in the US or other places, they are available, yet market forces still push towards the shittier massive vehicles, because it makes more money to market these vehicles to insecure men.

Terminals are only limited in tasks that require graphics content, what a shocker.

For all other cases they're vastly more powerful than any GUI can be, because no developer can (or should, it's unrealistic to ask them to do this) match the amount of complex operations terminal commands can reach with one string or script. With GUIs you also have to deal with different sets and toolkits, like GTK, Qt, etc etc.

There's use-cases where GUIs work better and cases where terminals work better and which ones belong where also depends on the user, but saying terminals are more limited than GUIs and bad is flat out wrong and dishonest.

Then car companies wouldn't be making bigger and bigger cars
