I think so, and it might even be a feature of the upstream Microsoft OSS Pyright, so even that version should(?) have those features available

BasedPyright should have you covered on the Python end, the downside is you also need to install the PyPi package.

Have used it and it’s excellent, even has additional features over Pylance

Probably not a small browser, no. I just really wanted to plug it tho

Does Servo count? It was originally a Mozilla project to write a web engine in Rust, then got transferred to The Linux Foundation when Mozilla laid off a bunch of its staff

Have you actually read the article? The first sentence:

A quotation circulates on the Internet, attributed to me, but it wasn’t written by me.

Have you given the CachyOS kernel a try? It’s got some of the Clear Linux patches and some other custom patches, and it might have slightly better performance than the others you’ve listed here

Although expect to only really see any noticeable improvements in games or benchmarks and the like

I’m not a GNU/Linux expert, I’ve only used it on a server for a short time, but I have some things to share.

Remember: search engines are your best friend! Obviously it would be better for someone to recommend a program for your specific use case, but you can find things like notepadqq (Notepad++) or xone (Drivers for your Xbox One controllers) with just one search.

About GNU/Linux distributions: each of them provide a different set of software, including package manager, desktop environment, file system, etc. You can basically ignore the differences between distros if you use distrobox, which will let you install software regardless of your distro. Other differences will mainly be in the actual software they distribute (so you may need to use sudo apt rather than pacman or whatever.

The “flavours” of distros can mean different things, often though they just have a different desktop environment so it runs kinda different, or it is designed for a different use case.

For your use case, Pop!_OS has an ISO that includes Nvidia drivers, and Linux Mint also lets you install the proprietary drivers. Both are fairly common in the GNU/Linux space (especially with beginners) so you can get tons of support with those.

I know in GrapheneOS that the Google Play Services are sandboxed and you can install them in a specific user profile, but I’m not sure if doing that still gives you notifications across those profiles

Hopefully someone with a little more knowledge of this can help? lol

By default, sure. But uBlock is way more powerful when you configure it. Seriously, take a look at their wiki. I doubt that Brave lets you choose exactly which domains to connect to on a per-site basis. And do you really want an advertising company to make your adblocker? They’ve done shadier stuff.
