I used to run a desktop Linux computer, and I used Ubuntu. But what's the actual, cool-person Linux distro that I ought to be using?
Since macOS 14.4, automatic dark/light mode (System Settings > Appearance > Appearance > Auto) has been totally broken for me. I need to manually switch between light and dark twice a day. Is it broken for everyone else? How to fix?

However, the website I'm using doesn't seem to allow me to remove my password entirely. So I guess as long as my account as a password-based method of authentication, I need to keep 2-factor authentication via OTP enabled.
Ah, so, according to https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2022/10092/, passkeys do make OTP obsolete. I wonder why this website continues to ask me for an OTP, then. Maybe because I still have a password with them? Perhaps removing …
If passkeys are meant to be used in conjunction with one-time-passwords, then Apple's built-in password manager lack of support for OTP is an even more glaring omission...
