Writing a Gimp 3.0 Plugin – Resources and Notes
For me on Arch Linux, Inkscape definitely doesn’t ship with its own Python. and its source code suggests to me [0] that it shells out to any Python (or Perl, or Ruby, or shell) that it can find on the PATH.

Inkscape 1.4 Released
The one new feature in 1.4 that I appreciated the most is the ability to disable anti-aliasing when exporting from the command line:
https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/5167
Before this option appeared in Inkscape nightly builds, I had no way of automating a pipeline to rasterize SVGs into black&white PNGs in a pixel perfect way.

Audacity 3.4 – New Musical Features
The contents are rendered through gtk/cairo which not only goes through https://www.xquartz.org/ but also doesn't use GPU rendering (it was experimental 3 years ago, maybe better now). The main issue seems to be that neither Inkscape nor gtk people have much low level Darwin experts or time available to invest in debugging the whole rendering stack. See for example https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/1614 and all the other referenced issues for all the gory details.

Inkscape launches version 1.3 with a focus on organizing work efficiently
There's a year old issue https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/3227 with no visible progress and a medium priority label. I hope it gets more dev focus soon.

Node duplication [help]
Here's a bug report related to this. Also here's a video of this bug with the oldest version of Inkscape that I still have lying around (0.94.2 i.e. 2019, but it's likely the bug is even older than that), and a similar thread on here from more than two years ago.

The checkmark of the page grid button is reversed. Is this a bug?
Yes. Only in specific circumstances, though. It's not really that big of a deal.

Is there a way to snap object handles to paths/nodes? For example, I have a circle arc, and I want the arc to end on a path; but when I drag it it won't snap.
Arc handles can't be snapped and it's a known issue. It seems like you're using guides, though, so you can just double click the guide to get its angle and manually enter it as the 'Start' or 'End' angle in the toolbar.
-
[Help] How can I make CTRL + ALT + V work?
This is a known issue. It seems like it's related to a new setting that was added in recent versions. In the preferences under 'Behavior → Selecting' disable 'Paste above selection instead of layer-top' to get the old, non-buggy behavior back.

what is going on here
See the ASCII table at https://www.rapidtables.com/code/text/ascii-table.html. Have seen it happen in Inkscape on Windows, too: https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4071
