If you like the relatively polished experience provided by a DE like cinnamon, you're unlikely to enjoy a WM. It's a much more DIY experience. Unless you have particularly unusual window layouts, you're best off just learning the keyboard shortcuts already supported in your DE.

It does depend on the device though. A desktop PC can easily be upgraded with a new drive, but a laptop it may not be as easy, or in some cases, not possible at all. Could always use an external drive, but those are usually more expensive and quite inconvenient if you move the laptop around.
I don't want to be naturally un-selected because my neighbor's rabid dog bit me.
Samsung makes their own chips but they also are one of the largest customers of chips from Qualcomm, mostly manufactured by TSMC.
If you have access to a VPN you can also buy premium for a much smaller price in another region. I bought a year for 16 USD via India.
Perhaps, and when that happens I would be equally disdainful towards them.
Mostly because fuck corporations trying to milk their copyright. I have no particular love for OpenAI (though I do like their product), but I do have great distain for already-successful corporations that would hold back the progress of humanity because they didn't get paid (again).
It's super confusing, like I feel many commenters there live in a different universe. They talk about how Wayland is a failure that has failed to get off the ground, while it's the default in most of the major distros at this point.
The phoronix forums are insanely toxic. Everything is bad. Gnome = kid's toy. systemd = written by Satan himself. Every programming language = too slow. Anything vaguely interested in fostering a diversity, equity, and inclusion = true colors come out in full force.
It's so toxic yet I subject myself to it every now and again. There's absolutely no moderation going on and it shows.
Cheese that is cheaper and just as tasty as the original? Thank you china!
Because people have been doing so for a long time and have ironed out most of the quirks. The software is also generally quite simple, meaning there are just fewer quirks that need to be ironed out. And the ecosystem is largely open source, meaning everything can be recompiled to target the relevant architecture, so while translation layers are still useful, they're not the essential tool they are in proprietary ecosystems. The main headaches that plague windows on arm mostly just don't exist on the Linux side.
They can be but it's up to the hardware implementation moreso than the ISA.
