I've spent half a day yesterday to set up a VM running Debian on my office's Win PC. Since I'm tied to Windows because of my proprietary CAD, my plan is to limit my interaction to a minimum and instead do everything else in the Linux-VM. With shared drives and drag'n'drop I hope it will work out. It comes in also very handy that I started years ago to strictly choose open source software that's available for both platforms - so no learning curve. Since MS won't listen - we all need to laudly complain about the lack of linux support towards our software providers. And yes, maybe too naïve, it will change something in the long run.

Well ... Stranger Things ... I know, I know. But it gives me so good 80's vibes, especially due to the great synthie soundtrack. Can not not mention it.
Although not an android app, I'd like to mention Firefox' Feedbro add-on. Since Mozilla recently announced (if I'm not wrong here) to make the desktop add-ons available in the mobile version, maybe Feedbro will be part of it?
I so very much hope that the Linux gaming effect increases. Not only for gaming, but for the productivity world. If development of these 'compatibility layers' (Wikipedia) like Proton, Wine improves and maybe win-native software (thinking of CAD in particular) can be made working reliably on Linux using these packages, one or the other big player might adapt. That would be a much cheaper way of expanding the software's range than developing and maintaining a native Linux port...
... and maybe I am too naive.
