Proton Pass is open source and the company that runs it recently reincorporated as a Swiss non-profit to ensure their privacy mission can't be bought out by venture capitalists etc.

I haven't watched it yet but it looks like this might be the full interview:

Lots of firmware and driver updater programs seem to require Windows or Mac and I can't get them to run with wine. For example, I need Win to update the firmware on my car stereo and my 8bitdo game controllers. I also need it to run the tax software my CPA uses.

Thanks for this! I'm so glad to see an audible alternative.

EDIT: I signed up for a free trial and will give it a go. Bummed to see they have a much smaller selection but I guess that's expected with Amazon's muscle.

I know it got sold twice and I am worried about the future but I believe they still have the same purchase and download options for now.

Pretty much everything you cook should have salt added or it will taste bland. Salt brings out other flavors. There's a reason "under seasoned" is an expression that often simply means "under salted."

Plus her ~~husband~~ boy toy Hieled Hitler in the beginning!

*I'm kidding but it almost looked like he did. Though I guess that might not be a negative thing for the people that vote Boebert.

EDITED to correct inaccurate husband statement.

Can you use an adblocking DNS provider to circumvent this?

I agree that it's a bad recommendation. That was my first distro and the dated look was a huge turn off and a bad first impression for Linux. It just feels like a downgrade from Windows or MacOS, which makes for a terrible transition.

What Mint offers that many other distros don't is that it generally works well right out of the box, with just the initial install and no other tweaks, because it has proprietary drivers and other bells and whistles pre-installed. But so does Zorin and Pop_OS and both look much better. Those would probably be my top recommendations for a new user. All 3 of those distros have lots of online support (plus the general Ubuntu support that will usually be applicable as well).

Very interesting. Thanks for taking the time to run these tests and share your results!
