Ah yeah, this was the line I read a bit too fast:
Any modern Linux distribution should basically be in good shape for the AMD Ryzen 9000 series processors. The one recent caveat is needing Linux 6.12+ for the AMD Zen 5 CPU power reporting if that is important to you otherwise it's an easy one-liner patch to backport.
Compatibility for desktop pcs is a whole lot better nowadays. Main thing to check is the motherboard; Bluetooth, WiFi and BIOS updates without windows can be pain areas but even that is getting rarer. Laptops require some more reasearch.
If you're going cutting edge (AMD Ryzen 9800X3D) then you'll need kernel 6.12 or higher.
Here's a Linux review of the 9800X3D - https://www.phoronix.com/review/amd-ryzen-7-9800x3d-linux
I second this. OEM machines usually come with weird caveats where they saved money on the PSU or other parts that isn't used in their marketing of the machine.
In my country many online computer stores offer to prebuild your custom pc, offering warranty on the whole build.
Great if you don't have the time to put it together or if you want the warranty offered.
Now that we're adding more dystopian books to the thread I'd like to shout out to Kallocain (1940) by Karin Boye. It's more of a totalitarian state similar to 1984 but has an aspect of truth drugs, a hot topic back then, and thought criminalization.

Some developers make gog users second rate citizens, some don't publish on gog at all. I wouldn't call it a sinking ship though, later years they've had more big name games such as Baldur's Gate 3 than before.
Also, if gog shuts down tomorrow I can still install all my games from the installers on my network share, something I can't say about steam.
I am very happy about Proton/SteamOS and how they assist in making games playable on Linux. I hope the SteamOS devices become popular enough that developers stop trying to shut Linux out.
I'm not looking forward to what will happen with Steam when Gabe is no longer around though.
Having one big marketplace/launcher might be comfy right now but that can turn into a nightmare quickly when there's a new owner in town.
Personally I'm trying to buy any game I can on gog.com instead of Steam. Both to get my own offline installers and to ensure not all my eggs (games) are in one basket. I launch more games from Lutris then Steam today.
ME är en akronym för myalgisk encefalomyelit, på engelska Myalgic Encephalomyelitis.
Myalgi betyder muskelsmärta, encefalit inflammation i hjärnan och myelit inflammation i ryggmärgen.
CFS är en akronym för Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, på svenska översatt till kroniskt trötthetssyndrom.
Den vanligaste beteckningen för sjukdomen i den internationella, vetenskapliga litteraturen är kombinationstermen ME/CFS eller motsvarande kombination med de fullständiga namnen utskrivna, Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
I Sverige används beteckningen ME/CFS bland annat av Statens beredning för medicinsk och social utvärdering (SBU),[8] Socialstyrelsen[15] och 1177,[16] men även myalgisk encefalomyelit och kroniskt trötthetssyndrom är vanligt förekommande.

Just a reminder, if you're in the EU then waiting 'til June might be worthwhile:
Gonna be interesting to see which models disappear from EU altogether and which models get the better repairability and software updates next summer:
Ecodesign requirements will apply to mobile phones and tablets put on the EU market from 20 June 2025 onwards, including:
- resistance to accidental drops or scratches and protection from dust and water
- sufficiently durable batteries which can withstand at least 800 charge and discharge cycles while retaining at least 80% of their initial capacity
- rules on disassembly and repair, including obligations for producers to make critical spare parts available within 5-10 working days, and for 7 years after the end of sales of the product model on the EU market
- availability of operating system upgrades for longer periods (at least 5 years from the date of the end of placement on the market of the last unit of a product model)
- non-discriminatory access for professional repairers to any software or firmware needed for the replacement
SnappyMail seem to be a fork of Rainloop and both Rainloop and Snappymail appear to allow multiple providers - https://snappymail.eu/
Cypht seems to be a similar solution where you selfhost a webserver that acts as a web client to external email providers - https://www.cypht.org/documentation/
I find nothing about push notifications for either of those solutions though, and I'm not sure about how much the webclients cache.
