Did you read the article?

I'm not sure if it's a better choice for everyone. With mumble you'd need to maintain a server, for instance.
If your primary concern is open source then mumble/jabber is probably your solution

Discord might be an alternative for team/friend based conversations. They have group calling (don't need to share a server) now. Problem is that it's marketed towards gamers and so might not be fit for purpose for business purposes

Google can't block elements on sites it does not control.
Warning users of phishing and warning users of speech that it finds objectionable are 2 different things entirely.

I much prefer written content to videos. I can read them on my phone on my walk to work, whilst listening to music, for example.

Unfortunately they might not be able to view this - as it might be viewed as "unsolicited design" - which they can't view due to company policy.
Stops people suing Wizards if they print a card identical or similar to a homebrew card.

To hazard a guess, 70% is the maximum grade (which I've been told isn't that good in US standards, so just saying "I've got 86%" - which is a very good grade, might get looked at the wrong way by a US company.

I got a basic cherry board, and the USB connection in the back broke after about a month's use. I take it with me with my laptop - which could explain the additional wear and tear, but I've not been doing anything other than typing and removing the cable when moving the laptop - I can't say I'm impressed with the life. (YMMV, of course)
