There is this Home Assistant integration which I remember getting working. I haven't used Home Assistant in a while though, so I can't be a good resource if you need any help.

I have used Fedora for nearly all the time I've daily driven Linux, and haven't encountered any problem that a newbie would encounter and couldn't overcome, excluding distro-agnostic stuff. Yeah, the h264 shit sucks, but if you use flatpaks you shouldn't have to worry about it. And if you ever have to face SELinux, then you're probably doing something that's beyond beginner level.

So much for Republicans being "tough on crime," this law would be more effective (for the purpose of fighting street crime) if they just removed the whole racist bullshit. Of course, that's not what this law is intended to do. This is some stupid political game where Republicans present a bill that is "intended" to fight street crime. Every sane person and media establishment will see and criticise it for being racist, which it is. Then Republicans and Fox can yell about how those darn woke communists "don't care about the community" and "aren't tough on crime." Also did I mention it's hella racist? Because it's hella racist.

RAR isn't open source.

Oh I'm sure they have plenty of problems, but it's probably only minorities and poor people who experience them so who cares!

I haven't used Discord in a while so YMMV but I used to use WebCord and screen sharing worked pretty well IIRC. It uses an up-to-date Electron version which has better support for modern desktop Linux protocols. There are probably plenty of other alternative clients that just repackage the web app with better Linux support. There's also gtkcord4 which is a native Gtk client, though definitely not as polished as the official client.

Are we forgetting Windows 2000?

Idk, twenty twenty-something. But Chromium with the YouTube homepage takes less RAM than GNOME Software and GNOME Shell, which either says I should move to Xfce or that Chromium has improved. Can't speak on VS Code though since I run that in a distrobox and podman is broken for me rn.

Even on Chromebooks you can install Firefox.
