Because one of the features of Linux that Microsoft is most interested in is docker/oci containers, but that is a feature specific to the Linux kernel (and thus requires a virtual machine).
Use cockpit by Red Hat. It gives you a GUI to make networking changes*, and will check if the connection still works before making the change. If the connection doesn't work (like the ip addresses changed), it will undo the change and then warn you. You can then either force the change through or leave it be.
*via NetworkManager only.
Vscode is an IDE, but only after I spent 15 minutes finding and selecting the appropriate java extensions and ensuring that my Linux system had Java installed.
But what was a 15 minute process to me, could easily be a 2 hour struggle to someone who is setting up a development environment for the first time and "just wants autocomplete and debugging".
This feature used to be in KDE 5 as well though, but with a size cap. I suspect the removal of the size cap is intentional rather than a bug.
The solution to what you want is not to analyze the code projects automagically, but rather to run them in a container/virtual machine. Running them in an environment which restricts what they can access limits the harm an intentional
or accidental bug can do.
There is no way to automatically analyze code for malice, or bugs with 100% reliability.
A simple but elegant io game. You are a ball, and you want to knock other balls to the ground.
One thing I like is that rounds in small, 4 person lobbies, rather than the massive worlds of other io games. Although you can't really make friends, you can know personas, and it's more personable.
Only vivaldi caught this issue. Brave had this api enabled, most likely on accident.
But the problem is, that chromium is just such big and complex software, when combined with development being driven by Google, it's just impossible for any significant changes or auditing to be done by third parties. Google is capable of exteriting control over Brave, simply by hiding changes like above, or by making massive changes like manifest v3, which are expensive for third parties to maintain.
Brave can maintain 1 big change to chromium, but for how long? What about 2, 3, etc.
My other big problem with brave is that I see them somewhat mimicking Google's beginnings. Google started out with 3 things: an ad network, a browser, and a search engine.
Right now, Brave has those same three things. It feels very ominous to me, and I would rather not repeat the cycle of enshittification that drove me away from chrome and goolgle.
No one complained when s6, another init system, also offered a sudo alternative (before systemd did, too). But when Poettering does it, it's bad and wrong and ununixlike!
Maybe setuid has been extremely problematic, and more than one entity has sought alternatives?
Was watching a twitch streamer learning linux, and chat convinced them to open vim for the first time. Not a single person gave the real answer of how to exit, all joke answers like "Power off," and it was hilarious.

Because you can run a "rootfull xwayland" session which is essentially an X11 session but rewritten to be more maintanable.
After this, it's a lot harder to be opposed to the loss of X11, because you don't really lose it.
