Bro i just use KDE. Sometimes i tweak it a bit, mostly when i should be doing something else. But i think the defaults are just perfect.

I just want the option to tweak it a bit. I like the fact that if i want to open Dolphin file manager with my buttplug i can probably find a way to do so.

I thought so too, but I'm pretty sure this is real.

Yeah man, I always thought that decompiling executables is really hard, but I have only messed around with Ghidra a couple of times, so maybe there are more advanced tools out there. I guess it's either that or somebody hacked their Git server or something, but that's less likely.

How is that even possible? Wouldn't they need the game's source code? I thought a game had to be specifically built for the Switch's hardware to run on it.

No, well... Depends on the OS. I believe Android forks like Graphene and Calyx OS keep it to the bare minimum. If you have a Android phone, you can use a open source application called Scrambled Exif to remove exif data.

Try OnlyOffice it's basically indistinguishable from Microsoft Office, and available as a flatpak

Why do you want people to use Linux? Its a OS with a completely different philosophy, most people don't care about FOSS.
