I personally still think Kubuntu or Xubuntu is the way to go, granted it is a bit of an 'easy' answer. Here are some of my reasons.
1. Manjaro is decent but every arch distro being a more rolling release, tends to encourage keeping it up to date all the time. Debian based distros are still periodic releases. I could go into detail why I believe this is ultimately easier to deal with, some other time.
2. Debian is great and has a ton of good reasons to use/support it. That said the package system seems a bit cluttered in a way. I always found it easier to deal with installing packages on Ubuntu based distros. They both ultimately use the same deb/apt based system but Ubuntu seems to implement it in a way that is cleaner.
3. Sort of related to the last point. Deb files just seem like the easiest package system to deal with, in Linux land. RPM being a close second. App images even more so but those are not as wide-spread.
4. Debian based distros are also the easiest to modify the ISOs/installers of. Using a tool like Cubic, for example. One could create a modified version to be installed without much trouble.
I usually spin up a modified Kubuntu with Wine, Kolourpaint and other Windowsy stuff, as well as remove a bunch of stuff I have no need for.
In terms of the apps you listed, a quick and dirty list of equivalents:
MS Paint - Kolourpaint (This one is VERY similar.)
MS Notepad - Mousepad (Pretty basic text editor a la Notepad.)
or Kwrite (Stylistically fits in with KDE better and has some very nice features I miss with other programs.)
Google Sheets - Probably continue using Sheets. Otherwise, Only Office or Libre Office.
Edge/Chrome - Could continue using these just fine. Though I would like to suggest Librewolf or Vivaldi as alternatives with much less BS.
Backup stuff - I use Timeshift to back up my install. You could use this for other stuff too but there are probably better drive sync options. The name of some escapes me at the moment but I could look into it.
I would be happy to go into things in more detail, or even help directly over some form of messaging, but I don't have much time today. If you might be interested, just reply here or not, I guess. I could help more next week.
PS, as others have said, Linux Mint is great too. It's based on Ubuntu, so pretty much everything about Ubuntu applies.

Well there's your problem right there.
- BitChute - If you can get past the 'racists' and the MGTOW gayness that dominates the front page, this site has a rather large catalog of free movies available.
- Rumble - If you can get past the political slop, this site streams a lot of NFL sportsball for free .
- Twitch - I used to go here to watch my sportsball but the site is now overexposed, old and busted. Can't go five seconds with a copyright notice appearing.
Also I think China makes 3-4" android phones but they're mostly a joke spec wise
Guetzli is nice, but it's slow as balls. JPEGMini is a decent alternative. (I'm a happy customer of JPEGMini, BTW. No other affiliations.)
UI on the site is a bit clunkey IMO, but the app at least has some customization options (font-type, font-size, different layout sizes, open tabs inside the app or direct them to an external browser, etc)
No affiliations, other than that I'm a happy user!
This means compiling the lib to wasm, right? At first I was thinking of running JS clientside that imports some C lib somehow, which confused me.
Their rank improved 8,324,736 positions vs Liberapay's 824,569 positions. MS is now rank 578,982 and Liberapay is 586,177 vs Patreon's 461

But seriously, you seem to imply it's bad that people plan ahead, for when shit hits the fan, and somehow those people are the bad guys? Maybe that's not what you intended, but it's what you seem to imply.
It's called the [Bellamy salute](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bellamy_salute), which is based on the [Roman salute](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_salute). For those that want to know more :)
When you play the game, listen to what's being said and read the subtitles, you can actually learn the alphabet while playing the game. I still can't read Russian fluently, but I can now decipher/map each individual letter to a Latin version and such at the least understand what's being written! Sadly, a lack of time made me stop playing.
1. Find a popular app
2. Find a niche that that app isn't covering (like a localized version or other)
3. Make your app cover that niche
4. Wait until the popular app owners buy you out
5. ????
6. PROFIT!
