GrapheneOS is working with a manufacturer to change this:[0]

Of course, SteamOS is an immutable Arch spin, so it's not as if this isn't an idea that's been had before, but Arch is indeed on the surface sort of a weird distro to implement as immutable.
(Not having much Spanish, I at first thought "Odin's disco(teque)" and then "no, that doesn't make sense about sides", but then, surely primed by English "disco", thought "it must mean Odin's record/lp/album".)

No, that would probably end up in a logical paradox, if one were intolerant of any degree of intolerance.

I don't know enough to have a particular position on the ACLU, but at least in theory an organisation defending free speech might decide that conditions have become such that defending certain things will lead to the inability to defend other things and choose to proceed differently on that basis.
TeX puts more space after periods/fullstops (which is why you're supposed to do special markup or other measures to mark '.' in the middle of sentences which aren't sentence-enders (e.g. like e.g.)). But it's generally smaller than the equivalent of two manual spaces.
(A nice thing in (La)TeX is that one could follow the "two spaces after a full-stop" rule, which then has the advantage of being an explicit marking for sentence boundaries (which your editor might be able to navigate; Emacs has a convention of assuming two spaces after a sentence-ending '.'), but then the TeX typesetting will take care of making it look right. I lost the habit of actually doing this, for better or worse, except when flycheck/checkdoc/package-linter.el makes me do it for docstrings.)
Yeah, I think KOReader started out for Kindle first, and then added Kobo (and then other things - works on Android for one, and KOReader is typically what I use if I'm reading on my phone too). I just went with Kobos from the start because it seemed like there were fewer problems with Kobos w.r.t. getting locked in/out of things than with Kindles, though Kobos are harder to get hold of (outside of Canada, I suppose) than Kindles.
What people aren't generally used to doing is installing OSes. Any OS. Using OSes... Windows 11 is far more complicated, finicky than plenty of Linux installs. (People get caught up in the "you're not holding it right" for Windows/Mac issues.)
It happens that lots of people who use Linux like to mess around with things, and, from a certain perspective, that's a waste of time. (But can be enjoyable.)
But it's perfectly possible to just use Linux and not muck around. Or, at least, to spend less time unwillingly mucking around than one would elsewhere.
(E.g., EndeavourOS, which is, perhaps unexpectedly/ironically, more or less just Arch with a nice installer and a welcome screen, is one of the easiest OSes to deal with. [Maybe not completely unexpectedly, SteamOS is also a customised Arch.] It's not the exciting distro, or the one I'm most likely to talk a lot about; but see the first point.)
