I wasn't aware it was having issues. Still mostly working fine on my end.

Guess I'll start checking out some desktop alternatives

Python is dynamically strong typed, meaning you don't need to specify any types, but unlike JavaScript you can't just use a string where an int was expected. In that sense it's absolutely runtime enforced typing.

It's way easier to install the Magisk module someone else made than build it myself.

That requires reboots to update.

It is impossible to say why this book is currently going viral at this moment in time and why it may feel particularly relevant to a workforce of millions of people who have suddenly been asked to agree to be “loyal” and work under the quasi leadership of the world’s richest man, have been asked to take a buyout that may or may not exist...

Proton is mostly just wine and esync has been replaced by fsync a while back. Ntsync is another even faster/better sync mechanism.

That's fair. For me none of the alternatives offer enough features to replace it. I often use it to highlight POIs of a type and all the different map views are great.
