They may think they are only hitting the LGBTQIA+ community, but this will hit all US citizens. Suppressive regimes, which believe people will only have sex after marriage and with only one partner, promote unwanted/teen pregnancy and the spread of STIs. Brace yourselves, dire times ahead.
There will always be a difference between generated content and "the real deal". Even if both kinds of content feed into a fantasy, the human made kind has the allure of potentially (however slim the chance is) being with the actors in real life. That will never happen with generated characters.
In the back of the mind there will always be the knowledge that generated content is synthetic and imagining what it would feel like being with an actor is futile, as they don't exist. Which will cement human made content for the group who cares about such things.
That is the Achilles heel of AI. Pinocchio will never be a real boy.
I would probably recommend Endeavour. While it has some CLI work every now and then, it's not something that I consider insurmountable. I am just your average nerd and I started out with SuSE 5 before 2000. Everything was CLI back then. You got to a GUI (startx) to run an office suite and a music/video player. In comparison Endeavour is a walk in the park. Also a good graphical package manager is a "yay -S bauh" away.
I've been running Endeavour for over two years now and I must say that it has been a pretty painless ride. No major bugs. The EndeavourOS Welcome app is a convenient and easy starting point for managing your system. It really takes the first sting out of CLI operations, while presenting it as something doable. A very soft introduction to Linux's most powerful tool.
Is it for every newbie? No. Absolutely not. It's definitely for people who want to work their computer. If you rather push the button and then have the OS babysit you, maybe forego Linux altogether. Linux is a power tool and it's philosophy for the most part is "You know best". A modicum of knowledge makes using it a far better experience.
I have been using KDE on an AMD RX 6600 XT for about 1.5 years and it is a very smooth experience. I don't notice a difference between X11 or Wayland. It's that I know I selected a Wayland session for KDE.
This reeks of thought policing. If language doesn't contain the "bad words" you can't think about it. I for one will not support a society that strives to become doubleplus good.
No, Red Hat is not going closed source. The GPL only stipulates that you have to make source accessible to licensees and the licencees of RHEL are Red Hat's paying customers. Red Hat has already stated that RHEL subscribers keep access to the sources via Red Hat Customer Portal.
According to AlmaLinux, there seems to be some licensing on Red Hat Customer Portal that seems to block republishing sources acquired from it. I wonder if that doesn't run afoul of the GPL. It is an additional restriction on the source code, which terminates the GPLv2 automatically. Would be an interesting situation if Red Hat loses access to the Linux Kernel over this.

We live in interesting times when the USA, the land of the free and home of the brave, has to turn to samizdat to circumvent censorship.

I am a KDE user. It just fits my way of using a computer.
S.u.S.E. Linux 5.2 in 1998. Didn't use Linux full time then, but S.u.S.E. got me acquainted with my future OS.
