Feedback
Pjolt - Thunderbird for iOS?
Thunderbird is in the roadmap for iOS (https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/thunderbird-for-iphone-and-ipad/idc-p/55779/highlight/true#M32691)
Chris - Which Android device?
The Pixel (https://swappa.com/buy/google-pixel-7a) has Chris's vote.
Chaos-r3v - Juniper Network switches
At least under the hood Junos OS is based on FreeBSD (https://www.juniper.net/documentation/us/en/software/junos/junos-install-upgrade/topics/topic-map/junos-os-overview.html)
Stan - Multiple Operating Systems on the same hardware
It is posssible to dualboot Ubuntu (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot) and Linux Mint (https://www.learnlinux.tv/how-to-dual-boot-windows-11-linux-mint-step-by-step-guide/) or just about any Linux distribution.
As far as which distribution is best, that really depends on you and what works best in your mind.
