Good luck on your Linux journey! I’ve never tried the Bungie spin, but Fedora is a very solid distro and I bet it’ll work great. Those MacBooks with Linux are so nice! I ran a 2011 MBP with a mix of plain Debian and Ubuntu for awhile and the battery life on that thing was amazing!
I’m on Fedora 38 with I3 WM and a few kde apps, originally installed as 35 and just upgraded since. Before that was arch briefly and before that was debian.  I went with Fedora because I need my computer to work without issue when it’s time to work and on arch I spent more time tinkering and getting things working then actually working. I still think just plain Debian a solid choice and I use it on a lot of servers but as a desktop, I felt like I ran into a lot of outdated packages. With Fedora I’m getting up-to-date packages yet I have never had an update break the system.  I also prefer DNF and their repository over apt and deb files. It’s all just personal preference though. You just gotta try them all and see what you like!
Depending on the situation, it actually can make huge differences.  For instance, I built my computer in 2010 it’s 13yrs old now. it can’t run windows 11 and while it can run windows 10 it runs like complete shit. Start up would take forever even on a fresh install, half the time Windows freezes just trying to get to the desktop after a fresh reboot. at idle background processes from windows would leave me running over 50% CPU usage just idling and opening anything like Firefox and Discord at the same time would jump to 100% CPU usage.
On Linux it runs just as good as the day I built it. Startup takes around 30 seconds and I can actually start working the moment I’m on the desktop, no freezing or waiting for background startup processes to finish. I currently at this moment have around 20 workspaces (aka virtual desktops) open across three monitors, within those work spaces is hundreds of tabs open in Firefox, simultaneously playing RuneScape and dwarf fortress. A bunch of terminals, SSH sessions, and other miscellaneous work stuff running. a ton of docker containers running, I also have both discord with a call going and Spotify playing in the background and I am setting at 30% CPU usage with the occasional spike to 50%. I can actually use my computer to do a ton of stuff and have power left over while windows would max out and freeze up just the start up, even on fresh installs. And it’s not just this one old computer, I can consistently see rather large performance differences going from Windows to Linux across the number of different computers. 
Wow, the end of that article is really rough. The ladies son killed himself right infront of her. I just can’t even imagine doing that to my mom no matter how angry I was. The only reason I’m alive right now is I OD off the massive amounts of drugs I’d taken while trying to work up the courage to pull the trigger and it ended up saving me. Yet before that point I took so many precautions to ensure that if anyone found me it sure as hell wouldn’t have been a family member. I completely understand how hard it can be with strong suicidal tendencies to think straight or make good decisions, but to carry it out right in front of your mom while she’s begging you not to it’s just… Wow.

In high school some kids stole a school bus, trashed the inside and peed all over the back. Left their beer bottles and cigarette butts all over. Tore up a bunch of the seats, burned some of them. Crashed it into a ditch at some point but managed to keep going. They did at least park it back where they got it from tho. Whole big shit show the next morning. They had the entire high school in the gym, threatening to suspend and charge whoever did it. The thing was everybody already figured out who it was when most of the boys and girls basketball team didn’t show up that morning. In the end they only got community service with a fine and were supposed to be suspended but that got canceled because they made it to state and apparently state basketball is more important than their punishment. One kid just sold a cow and covered the fine for all of them. Three of them had just gotten in trouble the year before for stealing a car and rolling it, two of them almost died but apparently they didn’t learn anything that time either.
Just a heads up, Eve works but it’s pretty flaky. It’s working better then it was a few months ago but I still can’t play more then maybe 15-30 min before it just totally crashes. A lot of time when leaving stations it freezes for awhile and a lot of the game assets don’t seem to always render in. Sometimes opening the menus or settings crashes it, for some reason opening the map and selecting jump points is really bad about causing freezing. Trying it again about a week ago I lost a ship because the game froze then crashed mid fight and when I managed to get back in my ship was destroyed.
Can we get a slide back the other direction to go back to the last opened post from the feed? Apollo had that and it was great. Occasionally I’ll slide back too far and end up on the main feed again but a quick slide from right to left on the main feed page would take you back into the last post even if you’ve scrolled down the feed a ways.
I went a bit different route to get info about the games I play the most. I realized that most of them have an official discord with announcement channels that have all the updates. So in one of my discord servers I created a game feed category and a channel for each game. Then subscribed each game channel to the matching announcement channels from the official servers. It has worked really great for quickly seeing what’s going on with each game.  It actually ended up working so well that I ended up doing the same thing for RSS feeds for things outside of gaming too. Now I just check my Info Hub to see what’s new.
Google’s really been on one lately. They’ve also been laying off staff, increasing ads while trying to ban ad blockers from YouTube, raised the pricing of workspaces yet again and closed the unlimited drive storage loophole. Removed photos from the album archive thingy. And I feel there’s been a few other things within the last couple months I’m forgetting.
An alias file is what I’ve found to be the simplest. Just have to add one line to either .zshrc or .bashrc that links to the file. I store the alias file and some custom scripts that a few aliases call in a git repo so it’s literally just a matter of git pull, add one line to the rc file and then close and reopen the terminal and everything is ready to go.
