I think that's ridiculous. I vastly prefer FOSS and so I won't use this, but clearly professional software being ported to Linux is a big deal for Linux and its userbase.

Should we ban discussion about any distro that's not certified by the FSF? Should we ban news about proprietary Nvidia drivers?

I'm a nihilist and I don't think that's true whatsoever. At least to be a moral nihilist, it just means I don't believe in any metaethical framework (no "oughts")

Regardless of whether or not I think killing me would have or create some objectively bad property, I have an egotistical attachment to living, and of course I'm going to try to avoid it.

My ethics and my desires are related but different.

I can't make any predictions, but I might see a few problems with moving to debian. Flatpaks are a pretty good replacement for lots of apps, but especially with stuff like drivers for Nvidia cards (and supporting Nvidia so well is something Pop!_OS seems to like), you just can't get all the way with the debian repos.

I think if they were to move, imo it would be more realistic to use something like Fedora as a base.

??? There are thousands of companies that do business in the US that aren't american.

This seems like a very reasonable and pretty tame warning?

This is such a ridiculous and biased article, and it's not world news.

That's a lie that the US government has desperately been trying to push for decades. The creation and detonation of nukes was an entirely avoidale atrocity.
