A quick Google shows Quickbooks to be cloud-based accounting software. For FOSS accounting, GnuCash exists so you could try that (it can also run on Windows and macOS). However, it's unlikely to have feature parity so if you like the added convenience that Quickbooks offers, see if you can use Quickbooks in a browser. Being cloud-based, they would probably build a browser version before building a Linux desktop app. If they don't and you need to run a Windows desktop app on Linux, you can probably do this using Bottles (which uses Wine and Proton under the hood, the tech that enables the Steam Deck).

Maybe these are only the newly blocked websites?

Gotta thank the Kremlin for making a list of good European news websites. On second thought, weird that they block cnews.fr. The Dutch and German lists make sense though
It's a new desktop by the Pop!_OS team, System76. They previously used Gnome extensions but to make a snoother, more performant experience, they have been working on an entirely new desktop environment + toolkit, all in Rust. They call it Cosmic.
The new Cosmic Store is super fast and smooth, perhaps the fastest package manager GUI on Linux desktop.
Check out this speed comparison against GNOME Software: (Cosmic starts around 1:10) https://files.catbox.moe/mzz004.mp4
If you're on Pop!_OS 22.04 you can already install it with sudo apt install cosmic-store
.
There's a few other COSMIC apps available but the store is the most usable one right now IMO. The text editor is fun too though. If you're on another Debian based OS, you can probably add the system76 repo and then install it.
The German federal government pushing the EU towards sensible energy policy?? Am I dreaming?
This made my day!
I know what they mean, but: I run an immutable Linux distro on my phone that is maintained by Google. I'm sure more than 0.01% of Europe does the same.
I guess "FLOSS phone" doesn't have the same ring to it as "Linux phone"

's collection is unmaintained and has a few issues. For starters, the second(!) tool in the list, exa
, is unmaintained but has a maintained fork named eza

Reminds me of that report from earlier this year, how Taliban former warriors were struggling with office work

Are you running for a seat in the European Parliament next year?
Firefox has a setting to automatically delete all cookies on shutdown. You can keep a whitelist of sites that are excluded from this (the ones where you want to stay logged in). Works great, and no more worrying about cookies, as long as you shut down your browser now and then
Most of (what we call) Linux OSes are formally GNU/Linux. GnuCash is as close as it gets to "made for Linux". If you don't want an accounting-specific application, but just generic spreadsheets, check out LibreOffice.
I highly recommend GnuCash for accounting though: a fellow board member cleaned up an org's accounting by putting it all in GnuCash, where it was a bunch of error-prone Excel sheets before. That really made it easier to keep track and to do it right.
