I’m not familiar with all of them, but I know several of them are tools. Isn’t it in apple’s best interest to open source the tools if people use and improve them, and subsequently it means they get more money from the app store? And if these are the only things they open source, they still have a tight fist on the vast majority of their code base.
While on the subject of apple and FOSS. They may open source some tools, but do they give back to other projects? I.e. does apple push upstream? Substantially less than google and ms. And I would go so far to say almost never.
I’ve enjoyed Proton for several years, except there ia no Linux desktop client. I intend to test installing the client in a virtual machine running windows, and then use shared folders.
There are some gaps in the numbers. That could be the case. Was it for all of the ones you tried to download?
That’s a very good question. It was a few years ago, but it’s running right now on my computer on Linux.
A friend of mine and I put this together a few years ago. I hope yall find it helpful:

What is it you’d like to do? You might be able to do it with ssh
Laptops often have open slots for hard drives. With his permission open the back and see if he has one. Bonus points for replacing his win10 hd with a 1tb. He’d probably appreciate it enough to give Linux another go
Not all BIOS look the same. Not all computers have the same button to push to enter the BIOS
Was going to (quasi) meme post man bash, but this was much better advice
Those answers were given in good faith under the presumption that they would be read and used by another person. Not used to train something to remove the interactions which motivated the answer in the first place.
On arch I would reinstall pipewire. Idk if there’s an apt equivalent
Hopefully spamming 0 or constantly yelling operator will still get you one of the very few people that still work there
It’s science. You learn something regardless
Someone else’s computer. Like a library
So the silver lining is that it is easier for you to get high?
I run fresh rss in a docker container on linode which unfortunately is no longer open souce, but I’m at ease over privacy given it would be relatively difficult to extract my information
It’s worth doing anyway to get a sense of how computationally intensive it is. Then consider how many people ask for the daily fart joke and you get a sense of the environmental impact.
She uses arch btw
