Oh wow, cool story about Yasuke. Is that where Yakuake got its name from?

Most people dont use dark mode on Linux because most apps look horrible in Linux under dark mode

Among my friends, dark mode users hugely outnumber light mode users, I really don’t have any apps that struggle to support it. LibreOffice used to be really bad, but I don’t really edit documents anymore, so I don’t use it often, but when I do, I don’t see issues (although the document background is white, because paper, so the contrast is a bit weird). I’m curious about which apps didn’t work for you.

Well, the routes might manifest somewhere as files, but I don’t expect anyone to be able to viably parse them without commands like ip or ifconfig (or know where the files even are).

Some devices (like disks for example) are very straightforward to use as files, while some other special files (like USB devices) are so weird/ugly to use that everyone uses tools/libraries to access them (like libusb).

This is very off-topic, but there’s a great talk by Benno Rice that talks about this (among many others): https://youtu.be/9-IWMbJXoLM

They aren’t asking about changes to a file describing the routing config, rather the actual in-use routing config. Unless the routing rules are modified through a couple of files (which I doubt), this doesn’t answer the question.

Cool commands though.

I don’t know anything about how Firefox is packaged for snap, but snap’s “sandboxing” might interfere with getting all fonts.

You might want to try using Firefox without snap (which has some other benefits, especially around startup time) or adding ~/.local/share/fonts (which is where fonts are supposed to be installed for users) to some sort of allowlist.
