It's used by a lot by organisations who want an alternative to Slack/Teams. Have a look at the client list for Element, arguably the biggest Matrix client/platform - https://element.io/

And as someone else mentioned there's also a huge influx of IRC folks especially in the last year.

I don't use it, but I imagine it sends mountains of telemetry and browsing data back to Redmond.

I use Inoreader, works quite well for reddit.

A helicopter is very obvious when it's nearby, a drone is far less so. One could be watching you right now and you probably wouldn't know unless you were looking for it.

It's true, just yesterday I saw a rogue whopper starting a forest fire

Using a mainstream distro like Ubuntu, along with Steam makes it fairly seemless - no struggling required.

95% of my Steam library I can install and run without a second thought and the performance isn't noticeably different to Windows. Some non-Steam titles I use Lutris for, but that's only one or two extra steps.

Modern Aussie dramas kinda suck, but for comedy we've made some absolute gems in the past like Rake, Kath and Kim, and All Aussie Adventures.

Also back in th day we made some solid dramas like Underbelly, and All Saints.
