Who benefits?

Who benefits from sowing a narrative around “drama”, “accusation”, and/or “paranoia”. Seriously.

I think given the following circumspect; GrapheneOS’s reaction, to move project pieces out of potential hostile environments/jurisdiction, is perfectly reasonable.

1. France’s Support for EU “Chat Control”, scanning proposals. France has been one of the governments most supportive of EU‑level proposals that would require scanning of communications and devices for illegal content.

2. The general French framing and approach to cybercrime. As in other EU countries, French authorities are pushing for: Expanded powers to compel cooperation from service providers, and developers. Strong rhetoric against tools that are seen as systematically obstructing investigations.

The revelations that came out from the Edward Snowden ordeal.

Also, I’ll add, that I think that beginners learning this immutable, devcontainer, distrobox workflow offers you more space to practice and learn by doing. You’ll will learn a lot by recovering from some misstep (rollback), and/or by blowing it up, to rebuild it again. (and I encourage you to do it often for the practice and confidence)

Check out the ‘dx’ variants within universal blue It would be a good time to become familiar with rebasing.

I run bluefin-dx environment. (gnome).

There is a different learning curve to immutable/atomic systems and workflows. I don’t think it’s harder per say, it’s just you’ll have to be cognizant of the differences when searching for relative and relevant information when you come up against anything (like any opinionated *nix distro). Learn Homebrew, and Flatpack (and thier quarks running with atomic systems).
