People will tell you that everything is a honeypot. In fact, I am a honeypot

So it is an American thing then? I feel sorry for you to experience that. But I personally never see anyone even use it in a racism way. Probably because of my own ignorance like you said. The internet is open tho. It is not just for US culture/culture issue. So honestly for the rest of the world, I do not think it is an issue at all. Maybe we can try to resolve it in some way? Idk

A lot of people seem to argue about ricing and the “original” meaning of it. But honestly as an Asian I don’t really think any Asian(at least in my country) actually care or even know the meaning of it. The ricing term of the Linux community is far from racism. What so wrong with rice? cuz we love it? I honestly don’t get it.

For me it is like this: Window–>ubuntu(a month)–>kubuntu(a week)–>Opensuse tumbleweed

I also tried Nobara, zorinos, arch and bazzite but never actually use them

The name of the pkg is plasma-welcome now you can use dnf to delete it

For Nvidia GPU, if u want squeeze the most out of it during gaming. I think there is 2 best options Bazzite(it is immutable so it will be really hard to break) or Nobara. Both of them is fedora base, so unfortunately your familiar with Debian based will not do much.
