It's normal. As is to stick to one distro for ever. It's great to have options, no?

Expect a wave of fingers cut off and eyes picked together with a stolen phone? Or kidnappings more likely?

I've been happily dualbooting Win10/Mint for years on the very machine I'm writing from. Zero issues with boots, GRUB, no need for flatpaks, both systems work fine, both configs heavily customized.

What was your starting point? Having Windows on the machine already and installing Ubuntu on top of it? (that would be commonly regarded as the 'correct' order) If not, and you can afford to scrap everything, that's what I'd go for. If yes, and it's Ubuntu that's messing up your dual boot, I'd see if Windows can be restored after removing Ubuntu, and then try a different distro (I'd go with Mint Cinnamon, it normally provides smooth install experience).

For starters you might want to check privatezilla and bloatbox by Bel: https://www.builtbybel.com/apps https://github.com/builtbybel

Mozilla deals with Google

With how much revenue comes from those deals, we might say it's practically financed by Google. FF is more Google than Chromium-based Brave if you follow the money.

I don’t want to use Brave Search for a number of reasons.

Mind sharing? I'm curious because I switched to DDG several days ago, after a good while of using Brave. My reasons were:

  • defaulting to Moderate safe search every couple of days
  • inability to provide me with good results for simple '[word] wiktionary' queries
  • having to block some elements of their result templates manually, using their own browser's filtering feature (featured snippets, definitions etc)
  • poorer search results compared to what they were a year, two ago

Some people here mentioned Kagi and I liked it a lot when I was beta-testing it, but I will only start paying for using it when they introduce full support for Boolean operators, which most likely means never.
