Correct, but new users don't want to need the command line for something as simple as installing packages.

I used to have an older HP LaserJet, which was really good. Their more recent printers just keep getting worse, and I feel like they're coasting on their reputation. Brother laser printers are what I've found to be the best modern printers.

As well as running on all distros, it also provides other benefits:

However, some applications don't work as well because of the sandbox, but I think this will change with the rising popularity of Flatpak, as more developers will use portals instead of direct access. Also, there are some bugs and missing features, like how heavy use of the org.freedesktop.Flatpak portal for dbus causes a memory leak (https://github.com/flatpak/xdg-dbus-proxy/issues/51), but it's overall pretty good. Most applications I use are Flatpaks.

Do you know what a VPN is?

I'd recommend Fedora, but the suggestion of EndeavorOS is also good.

Dual-boot, and if anything is missing, boot back into Windows to do that while you work on figuring out how to do it on Linux. There might be something to do what you're asking, but I find it unlikely because Windows and Linux are very different internally.

It's great, but that's not the prompt. The prompt is the thing that shows up before you type a command, usually with a $ or # and the current path.

If they don't make money, YouTube will get shut down, and we'll lose the archive of past videos.

That should work. One of the benefits of Wayland is that it's better at scaling than X11. What version of KDE are you running? Is there a switch between two different types of scaling (one is blurry for XWayland applications but works for all of them, the other is sharp for all applications but only some XWayland applications and all Wayland applications work)?

Use Xournal++, not Xournal. Xournal is no longer developed, and Xournal++ has way more features.

Finally. I was having some weird graphical glitches, so I switched it to the Wayland backend, and I've not noticed any issues. It's totally stable (at least for me).

Input Leap? Now that Barrier is no longer being developed, Input Leap is the main fork, and GNOME 45 just added support for it on Wayland.
