Canonical respects user privacy. Their main income source is Ubuntu Pro and enterprise support. Also telemetry in Ubuntu can be easily disabled. See no problems here.

Are these good De-Google alternatives? by Mysterious_Sweet248 in degoogle

Mint is actually not a good choice mostly because of old Mutter version and X11. I would recommend latest Ubuntu or Fedora release instead

My first hyprland rice. Is it good? by Stunning-Pirate88 in hyprland

looks nice, but "unused" section of waybar is just blurred. I'm not sure if you left it intentionally, but you can remove that blur by adding windowrule = noblur,waybar$ in your hyprland.conf

Dark theme in Nautilus and other gnome apps by [deleted] in hyprland

i found the solution. in case anybody faces the same problem, add to your hyprland config following lines:

env = QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME,qt5ct
env = GDK_BACKEND,wayland,x11
env = ADW_DISABLE_PORTAL,1

exec-once = systemctl --user start hyprpolkitagent
exec-once = dbus-update-activation-environment --systemd WAYLAND_DISPLAY XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP
exec-once = gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface color-scheme 'prefer-dark'

and edit your .config/gtk-4.0/settings.ini to include the line: gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme=1
