oh hell, i have to look myself. have not booked a room in over a year. It was on some site similar to booking.com for vacation rentals in Germany. And i noticed mobile was cheaper by sometimes 5%!

oh right okay, i forgot that this is a thing. its noticeable on hotel rooms as well with mobile vs. desktop prices for examples. thanks for the answer.

Out of curiosity, why? I have Linux in it and the last time any website complained about “incompatibility” must have been at least 5 years ago. Nowadays i think such workarounds are completely unnecessary.

Unfortunately not true. When I look at how many people have been voting on the right recently. For example among AfD voters in Germany (which got 30% in some areas), Trump is still very popular. The cancer is rampant here too.

A secret service that protects its own people instead of taking every opportunity to spy on them. remarkable.

Fully agree. I have been able to collect some signatures among my friends and relatives (in Germany). Unfortunately, I don't know how I could help in other countries / languages. At most with upvotes of the relevant posts and in general spread the word.

And I have just noticed that the initiative's website (https://www.tax-the-rich.eu/) with all the important information is only available in 6 languages. Polish is not included. That could be a reason. Things like this are an oversight we need to address (next time..).

I don't get whats going on with e.g. Poland. Like literally I don't understand it. Under 5%. Is this a cultural thing? Or was it simply not promoted enough?

Meanwhile france close to 200 freaking percent. Germany 150.

It's completely incomprehensible to me how something like this can't be massively successful. We should already have three times the necessary votes by now

It really does feel like a lot sometimes with the updates. I'm also thinking about looking for something that is also quite close to the edge / rolling but maybe a bit slower.

I was on Manjaro before for a couple of years. They clone the arch repos but then hold back the updates usually a week or so for testing. And it feels in general a bit more "stable" in that concern. But unfortunately over the years i noticed some problems with it like holding back important security updates for way too long for my taste or rewrites of some arch-tools which then not worked in a expected way.

And Endeavour felt right from the first second on noticeable more mature and professional with settings and tools that made sense.

The one big distro family i never looked into is Fedora. As far i see they have some kind of semi-rolling release which could fit the bill quite nicely. Major releases which then kept fairly up-to-date but not so fast and overwhelming as with Arch.

Maybe i will check it out. But yeah, i would probably miss the AUR. It is just so damn convenient.
