I have tried kmail, Geary, mailspring before I landed on betterbird. I’m not sure what you mean with slow, but it works without issues on my pc. It does a lot of stuff, but it’s a fork of Thunderbird, which you want to exclude based on the initial thread. There are not a lot of linux clients even worth trying. Good luck finding your jam.

I’ve been using endeavourOS for 1,5 years already and love it. Most of my games run with little to no tinkering. I’ve had no major issues that I couldn’t resolve with some googling or asking someone who knew better. Before I ended up with endeavourOS I have tried several distros ( mx Linux, Ubuntu, Garuda, Fedora, nobara, popOS ) and with all of them I had different issues that I was not too keen on troubleshooting. I would avoid Garuda and just go with Arch or endeavourOS for gaming.

A couple years ago I read that Filecoin has teamed up with the internet archive to synchronize the data on the Blockchain. I’m not sure how far they are yet, but it’s something that could work if it doesn’t turn out to be just crypto hype in the end.

What could work is to impose a daily progressing fine until the firmware change Is reversed and 3rd party ink Is allowed again.
