Liberating the MacBook Air 2013 with Linux
FYI: You can enable them in Gnome with Gnome-Tweaks. Apparently a very recent version of Gnome dropped this functionality for reasons that are beyond my understanding (but that's often the case when I look at the decisions that the Gnome devs make).
However, getting the Control -> Command/Super thing to work is much trickier. The best way is to use this: https://github.com/mooz/xkeysnail
However when I tried that, I ran into all kinds of weird behaviours all over the OS. Also, it doesn't work with Wayland.

Everything is gone. EVERYTHING
If the likes of https://github.com/mooz/xkeysnail/issues/43 are still a going concern then it's not quite as "everywhere" as one would like, and I presume that issue is a fundamental one (i.e. it doesn't sound like XKeySnail gets first refusal on key events).

Emacs + a nice theme + editing features is awesome! (plus some questions about extra configuration)
And I use XKeySnail to have the basic Emacs keys everywhere. I'm sure there are others, but it does enough to keep me happy.

Would you still recommend EXWM in 2022?
https://github.com/mooz/xkeysnail or the fork of it, I forget it's name, will allow you to do the same as exwm's simulation keys with any window manager.

GoboLinux
What you're looking for sounds like AppImages (https://appimage.org/) . I have only used them while downloading games from itch.io, etc. (since i prefer package managers) but they seem to work out of the box on popular distros.

Bitwarden Heist – How to Break into Password Vaults Without Using Passwords
Ideally a new instance of the application is installed for each user. This also provides better isolation if one user upgrades/removes/breaks their application instance. I, for one, have really come around to the AppImage model [0] in the last couple of years.

Ask HN: What's the best CLI installation experience you've ever seen?
There is AppImage[1], which packs a lot of stuff into a SquashFS filesystem, appends it to the executable, so everything is in one file.

How to minimize RAM usage during Go binary compilation
Although I haven't used plugins feature myself yet, this does sound like the perfect use case for them. Not every patient needs to access every single source. With plugins you can load only the source (or few sources) that they actually need. You can still use something like https://appimage.org/ to give them "a single binary", but will actually contain your slim binary and all the plugins.

See https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageKit/wiki/FUSE for more information open dir error: No such file or directory

I'm thinking of moving from windows to Linux. What should I expect?
appimages. Appimages are similar to flatpaks, exept that they are a file you download and double click to run. Think of them as portable softwares like windows has (portable apps). They are sandboxed too. You can learn more about appimages here
