Only reasons I can think of are time and money. We sadly lost DivestOS and their projects… How about software patents, which of course are bullshit; but even illegitimate threats can ruin small businesses and lone programmers who don’t have the time and money to defend themselves.
Aye, mate!

Or bad Dell drivers, or Microsoft software. Not my picture, take with a grain of salt as they say.
No offense, but some other folks apparently felt the need to downvote you, probably because modern GNU/Linux is a copy of Windows, which is a copy of Macintosh, which is a copy of Xerox Alto.
GNU/Linux is missing important stuff because manufacturers only pay someone to write drivers for Windows and sometimes Mac, because those are the dominant “normal user” OSes, because those are the OSes that manufacturers support… etc…
Your complaints are certainly valid, but the IT of your company should be applying Group Policies to address some of these!
Enterprise version is also more stable than the goddamn “you are the guinea pig” spyware Home and Pro versions. O&O ShutUp10++ for those… Hilariously, they are a Microsoft Partner according to their website; some partnership that is when an automatic update from Microsoft can undo anything their software does. 😂
I’m by no means an expert but a power user… I saw the writing on the wall years ago and now have only one Windows machine explicitly for some hardware that have no Linux drivers but is otherwise very nice and useful.

Anyone know about family sharing “tools” as opposed to “games”? I bought RPG Makers but can’t share them because they’re classified as tools and not games.
Upvoted. It is literally impossible for 99.99% of the population to tell the difference between a good LAME mp3 encode and the original. If someone is working with the audio, making their own remixes and such, they can benefit from lossless/higher bit depth/higher sample rate though.
There were shitty mp3 encoders like Blade in the past (planted by the music industry?) that are easy to hear a difference, and if dealing with files from an unknown source one can only make an educated guess with a spectrogram as to the files’ lineage. Example: Was it a Blade mp3 from Napster burned to audio CD that some moron ripped and posted as flac?
Source: old Hydrogenaudio forums and personally been Exact Audio Copying to flac for over 20 years. Had (modded? custom? can’t recall) Envy24 drivers on WinXP for bit-perfect S/PDIF output of “bit-perfect” CD rips. It was overkill but fairly easy to get the digital part perfect, then the analog part can be subjective… never used special stones, or coat hangers as speaker wire. 🤣
I use Remmina with RDP plugin. Works great!
You should have a display enable/disable switch in LMDE’s “Display” settings GUI, though it shouldn’t be necessary? Please try another (few) cable(s) because they do vary. Anecdote: I’ve heard of Samsungs being picky like this and only refusing to work with that one device you are trying to use.
Edit: Can your mouse pointer or windows get to the missing screen? Also xrandr -q shows display status.
This; works on Mull; there is no submit button, it just constantly refreshes the results and thus is slow AF from continuously juggling the data.
The “vulnerability” was only that F-Droid wasn’t keeping up with their builds, leaving everyone who installed it from F-Droid out-of-date, during a period of known Firefox bugs being exploited.
