You can hide the bookmark bar to save vertical space and then it’s just a more organized, forgotten bookmark list. Using a search engine to find the page again is more likely for me than a bookmaker 😅 (if no tab).

Bookmarks are great if I remember what I want is there. Usually bookmarking is like putting a piece of paper in cabinet that I will never open… A tab is leaving the paper on my desk for me that I will rediscover.

If no one discussed the value of software freedom on proprietary platforms then (hopefully) we’d be preaching to the choir here.

Linux has proprietary binary blobs in it. If any part of a software is proprietary then even if most of it is free why wouldn’t people call “Linux” proprietary? Libre Linux removes those blobs.

As long as you follow the GPL license you can redistribute it, for free or at cost. Linux is mostly free as in freedom and usually free as in free beer.

Wikipedia says ElementaryOS has a pay what you want model. So if your image is from them then you don’t have to pay (a 3rd party is free to charge you for it - bandwidth ain’t free).
