> Ubuntu also does not even list a single mitigation strategy...

I installed newest Ubuntu mainline kernel, it did work for me:

https://kernel.ubuntu.com/mainline/v7.3.1/

I also did patch my FLOSS Go software:

https://github.com/wekan/wekan/commit/e9751b65d4

I'm maintainer of WeKan FLOSS kanban https://wekan.fi , https://github.com/wekan/wekan , and maintainer of FerretDB v1 fork https://github.com/wekan/FerretDB . There is also WeKan Snap package https://snapcraft.io/wekan/ .

But I don't work for Ubuntu, I don't have any answers why Ubuntu does not do something.

That "mainline" is only installer tool:

https://github.com/cappelikan/mainline

You don't need to use that mainline installer.

You can download mainline kernel .deb files directly from Ubuntu:

https://kernel.ubuntu.com/mainline/

https://kernel.ubuntu.com/mainline/v7.3.1/

Apple products are not anymore more expensive than competition. Other prices like RAM, harddisks, etc prices have risen so much.

I had some affordable TV subscriptions, but after a while I did not find more good shows, or there was too many ads, so I canceled them. Anyway, usually it's enough I have watched some movie once.

With some subscription that I pay, I'm paying for some change, or some new experience, or that I can use some software or hardware for some time. If after paying nothing changes, there is no ROI.

I can not include anything GPL or AGPLv3 with my MIT license WeKan Open Source kanban, where I have added and removed over 4 million lines of code.

I have discontinued version of WeKan where was GPLv2 licensed Gantt Chart component, because it infected WeKan license to be GPLv2.

There has been some other kanban, that first changed from MIT to GPL, and then from GPL to some source-available license or propietary.

Maybe also rename https://github.com/level09/enferno-cli to https://github.com/level09/readykit-cli ?

Thanks! I really like your new website and rebrand.

Some wishes:

1) First I was confused when I didn't find issues etc, but then I found your rebrand. Please remove your https://github.com/level09/readykit repo, and rename original https://github.com/level09/enferno repo to https://github.com/level09/readykit, so that you keep all issues, PRs, and releases. It also will redirect old enferno url to correct new readykit url.

2) Please make automatic immediate forward from URL https://enferno.io to https://readykit.dev .

3) It would be nice if your website had button for dark mode, so you could switch between light mode and dark mode. Your new website is light, and your previos website is dark.

Thanks!

> What Linux computer can you buy with the battery life, quietness, lack of heat and speed of a modern ARM based Mac?

M1 Air or M2 Air, running Asahi Linux. I am posting this using my M1 Air, running Fedora Asahi.

> As far as phones - your alternative is to buy an Android phone with an operating system by an ad company that is also pushing AI just as hard.

I use Fairphone 4 with Ubuntu Touch.
