This is pretty much what I did, although it was coincidental. Felt bad for my boss because he fought pretty hard to get a meaty pay rise for me, and then a month later I quit.
Over-reliance on proprietary, closed-source products and services from megacorporations.
For instance, it’s really absurd that people in many parts of the world cannot function without WhatsApp, they can’t even imagine a life without it. It seems absurd that Meta literally has them by the balls, and these people can’t do anything about it.
Also the people who base their entire careers on say Adobe or Microsoft products, they’re literally having their lives dictated by one giant corporation, which is very depressing and dystopian.
As a gamer who uses a Thinkpad Z13 Gen1 with a Ryzen 6860Z APU, I disagree. Most games run just fine here via Proton-GE or Wine-GE. For newer AAA games however, you’ll need to dial down the graphics - but that’s expected of an iGPU. The most recent game I played on it was Diablo 4, which was running at a very playable ~45FPS at 1080p medium settings. This was on Nobara btw, a gaming-optimized distro based on Fedora.
This. I mentioned this a couple of times, IMO a Tl;DR shouldn’t exceed 150 words, but the bot’s author disagreed with me. It’s not a TL;DR if it takes up half the screen.
I prefer FPS games, if that’s important…
Which games exactly? Many popular multiplayer FPS games don’t work on Linux, due to the anticheat software employed by them.

No.
No headphone jack, no buy. It’s not a question of whether a headphone jack is useful to you, it’s just the principle of it - there’s no good reason to remove it (especially for the asking price of FP5), and more importantly, it goes against what the Fairphone stands for, IMO. I can understand if it were some other profit-driven company making a shrewd business decision, but for Fairphone to do it, seems very unfair to me.
If it’s something like a restaurant, just make a listing for it on sites like OpenStreetMaps or even Google Maps, for visibility. Make sure that the listing is fully fleshed out, including timings, photos, menu, pictures of dishes and ambiance etc - this is a step most restaurants fail to do, and it’s something very simple/
I’d say also make a website if you don’t have one already, and once again, ensure that it’s fully fleshed out with the same details as above. Maybe have an online reservation system. Use keywords for SEO so that your restaurant will come up in searches - maybe worthwhile hiring a proper web dev if you’d don’t have experience with this.
Then spread word via word-of-mouth, come up with a referral or coupon system, provide discounted meals for the first month etc. If your menu/service/pricing/location is good, then customers will flock to you on their own and they will do the advertising for you.
