Mangohud/Goverlay alternatives
Can you try this build instead: https://github.com/flightlessmango/MangoHud/files/11832956/MangoHud-978c0fd_sniper-0.20230509.49493.tar.gz

Getting much more stable frame times on the latest DynamicFPS++ mod, compared to running 60fps static and Chuck's dynamicFPS mod, while yuzu speed is capped at 75% (45fps). Specs: i9-10900k, RTX 2070 Super, 16gb Ram. Mods in comments.
Looks like MangoHud?

I am officially one of you.
MangoHUD, if you want a performance overlay like MSI afterburner fps counter
- i've gone insane for the past 2 days no matter how many reinstalls no matter how many different commands and ways i install i cannot launch frickin mangohud

Will there be Steam Deck OSD for Desktop
I just woke up and thought about a different thing, so small correction: the SteamOS performance overlay is a separate open-source project called MangoHud.

Tools for Linux Distro Hoppers
Hopping from one distro to another with a different package manager might require some time to adapt. Using a package manager that can be installed on most distro is one way to help you get to work faster. Flatpak is one of them; other alternative are Snap, Nix or Homebrew. Flatpak is a good starter, and if you have a bunch of free time, I suggest trying Nix.

Podman Desktop 1.6 released: Even more Kubernetes and Containers features
No, it looks like you have to do it on an application basis.
- how strong is the steam (runtime) sandbox for games?

Flathub – The Linux App Store
> CLI tools do not implement auto-complete themselves. What you are seeing are auto-complete scripts for your shell that make network connections.
nit: This is incorrect. Robust auto-complete scripts call the actual program to provide completions.
That is what Flatpak does. It is Flatpak itself that makes the network connections.
https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/blob/main/completion/flat...
Not that it would make any differencen if it was implemented in Bash seeing as the Bash script is also provided by Flatpak.

Meduza co-founder's phone infected with Pegasus
Not really. Even with modern technologies, the Linux desktop technology stack is very, very far behind when it comes to security.
The Linux kernel itself is a very weak foundation security-wise, the only way Android and ChromeOS get away with it is by using a very small feature set and restricting everything else as much as possible with seccomp, SELinux and heavy sandboxing.
The Linux desktop userland doesn't have meaningful hardening features compared to other platforms (even Windows is ahead, sadly). For example, practically all distros use glibc's memory allocator which has both poor performance and security [1] and their toolchain is based on gcc, with no support for modern compiler security features such as CFI (with the sole exception of Chimera Linux). Not to mention the permission model is completely outdated, like in that xkcd cartoon. Flatpak only mitigates this partially, because the Flatpak sandbox is very weak. The people working on Flatpak are doing their best, but from reading some GitHub issues, it's clear they are badly overworked and not experts on security at all. The person responsible for Flatpak's seccomp sandbox has admitted it isn't even his main responsibility and he doesn't have much knowledge about seccomp and is learning along the way [2]. The Flatpak seccomp filter is based on denylist instead of allowlist, and many dangerous syscalls can't be blocked because many applications rely on it (e.g. Firefox needs ptrace for the crash reporter). You also have to be very careful and use Flatseal (which is not officially supported) to deny permissions such as /home filesystem access, because it lets Flatpak apps override their own permissions by design [3]. And dangerous kernel components like io_uring are exposed [4], while Google disables them on their systems for their exploitation potential.
Here is a more detailed article examining the lack of security of Linux phones in case you're interested: https://madaidans-insecurities.github.io/linux-phones.html
If you want a FOSS-based secure phone, GrapheneOS is the best option.

The technical merits of Wayland are mostly irrelevant
Sensitive features like screenshots, input methods, screen locking and whatnot are behind extensions (or portals). I'm not familiar with the state of GNOME/KDE/Flatpak, but at least on the wlroots side of things it is true that currently these extensions are enabled and accessible by any process that can talk to the Wayland socket (breaking those security benefits, as you say). This is changing with protocols such as security-context that allow a sandbox engine like Flatpak (or your custom scripts) to restrict what features apps can use. (so your browser can't register an input method, or some random app can't lock the screen)
