I think the security thing is very arguable at this point. Windows and macos are both extremely secure (from threats external to the companies that made them).
Linux still has heavy reliance on running install scripts as root. Flatpak avoids that but has its own issues. Docker has its own suite of issues. Snap is just issues.

But why does it matter?

You need to define extreme operational security hoops.
For me, meeting a human in person and scanning a qr code or relying on an out of band scheme to do the same is a huge hoop.
In general, yes. I’m not super old but there’s never been a time in my life when that hasn’t been the case. Hard to think of a developed country where this is false.
I mean not as much as Russia or China, lol
No, fuck dumbasses who think a dash makes you a computer.
Nice attempt at both sidesing. I’m assuming you’re mostly focused on the us, so there is one party in power in all three branches of government and the other party has close to no power (the current shutdown demonstrates how the democrats are damned if they do and damned if they don’t).
In terms of citizens, a broad portion of the us population has spent the last 50+ years hating the government, but now that it’s small enough to fit in pants they seem mostly content.
Another broad portion has historically viewed government as trash but the only way to get things done that benefit the population. Since the government is now heavily focused on doing whatever it can to hurt the population (whether you’re a farmer, immigrant, elderly/sick, or whatever, this government is actively trying to hurt you), that portion is now unhappy but with no realistic approach to solving it.
My perception is that outside of 20-somethings, people are more or less in the same bucket they’ve always been in. Nothing going on here is remotely new. I don’t see any real change in people wanting anything other than the status quo.
