That something entirely different than the protocol being biased towards Linux. It's like complaining that TCP/IP is biased towards Linux because the Linux kernel's networking module can't be used in BSD kernels.
Screwed up fonts in GTK software, even though the xdg-portal app for KDE is installed. At some point I just gave up. I see no reason to install any Flatpak if the software in question is already in the distro's repository and current enough anyway. Maybe except OBS, because the Flatpak version comes with Youtube integration which, to my understanding, needs to remain closed source and won't make it into a FOSS repository.
I hope Microsoft will never go with the subscription based OS approach that is being rumored about. I seriously can't afford that much popcorn.
That's my personal experience, as well.
Es ist kein Wundermittel
Wenn man sich die Nebenwirkungen (zumindest die des Vorgängers) anschaut, dann will man das Zeug generell nur im absoluten Notfall nehmen...
Or at the very least partition ~ as btrfs/zfs and do regular snapshots. The downside is, of course, that a rollback won't just roll back the dotfiles. But I guess if the scenario is "nuking [the] home directory" then that's probably not an issue.
It’s probably impossible to list all the possible differences, but do you know what are the most common ones?
The ones that I mentioned regarding direct hardware access of any sort.
What settings app? hp-toolbox is the program to use (which might in your applications menu as "HP Device Manager"), alternatively hp-setup to set it up from the CLI.
Ed is the standard text editor.
I use boring old zfs snapshot + zfs send -i.
It's not pretty, but it's reliable.
Does it have to be a mini-PC like that? If you can put together a PC (or know someone who'll do it for free/cheap) you can get a significantly better midi-tower PC for less money.
Edit: And if you're going for the high-end version of the Meerkat then you have over $400 to blow for the service of putting it together and you still end up with a more powerful self-built machine. Which is also more extensible in case your son wants to put in a dedicated entry-level graphics card later on. Midi-Tower PC, CPU comparison, GPU comparison

This should work on Jolla's Sailfish OS phones as they're running a legit Android in a sandbox. Unfortunately their hardware support is pretty abysmal if you want all features working - and since it's legit Android it's also not free (monetary) and Sailfish OS's UI toolkit is also not free (freedom).
edit: also, last time I checked, Bluetooth support for Android apps is terrible, basically only audio work(s|ed).
