Adding the nofail option to the fstab entry will continue boot if the drive isn’t present.

Vorta, Deja Dup (duplicity), duplicati are some others.
Btrfs is well supported.
Btrfs uses snapshots and subvolumes. It is not a traditional partition and can restore to itself.
I think Timeshift is primarily a snapshotting tool for a quick rollback if something breaks. I would not consider it a full backup tool, there are tools that are much more robust and configurable for keeping files safe and elsewhere.
That is for “Site-specific data served by this system” like /srv/www. Can mount anything anywhere of course.
They were defined sure, but without distribution adherence they weren’t actually, this has been the case for a long time. Out of all the distributions, Gentoo is probably one of the most sensitive to this issue since most others have used initramfs or initrd for decades and Gentoo has always made it optional.
If the post was about FHS adherence I’d agree more.
I don’t know if this is really a “so broken” instance. /bin and /usr/bin (or sbin) have never been well separated, to the point where many distributions just symlink to /usr anyway. If you don’t want an initramfs to provide binaries you need them somewhere accessible.
Newer kernels are available, they even have a gui for it. Why would a Cinnamon user care about KDE or GNOME updates? (Some of which are broken on Fedora, like rdp login)
Mint Debian can run 6.7 right now.
For stuff that is still maintained but also legacy, military and contracting benefit from being a pretty insular community. Contractors are full of military retirees. What this does is give a pool of people who worked with the products for a very long time on one side who move over into maintaining them on the other, less knowledge is lost. It still happens and things must change eventually, but they manage to delay things where someone else like a bank might have a harder time when their knowledgeable employee leaves and they’re hiring people off the street.
Red Hat has long benefitted from being the primary enterprise Linux company based in the US (no, we don’t count Oracle). SUSE created US-based Rancher Government Solutions to get some of that business and it seems to have been getting a lot of interest, despite being early days. They did a good job of focusing on modern technologies and immutable systems.
I don’t think any of those really apply.
She didn’t have experience with it, but she was good with computers. When she realized what she was looking at, she made the famous exclamation. Not all that different than people posting stuff to Linux in the wild threads.
Fsn is what was up on the screen, so that’s what she used. Probably easier than figuring out how to get to the command line on an unfamiliar system.
Mess with the best, die like the rest.

That these were a thing is… wild.
Edit: maybe more fitting
Every community with that name needs to include a bit about FSN in its sidebar.
It’s based on Foursquare checkins from six months in 2016, not good for real world at all.
That is a clickable menu that explains exactly what the permissions are.
Firefox on flathub is an official one, that’s not what this warning is.
Clicking the potentially unsafe item lists the exact permissions.
It can access hardware devices, like your webcam or game controller. Likely --device=all in flatpak speak but I haven’t looked.
The new one I’ve seen is that it was created by liberals to sow confusion and make Trump look bad. They just say it’s a lie.
“Breaking userspace” is often considered a bug even if the code doing so is working as intended. Deleting user data because they bundle a config file deep in the directory tree for a completely different use case was not intended behavior even if one of them is defensive about the logic.
Btrfs can send a snapshot to another machine, but there is no pretty gui for it.
Most file systems cannot do this.
