I've never heard of AWT being incompatible with Wayland, I'd love to read more on that if you have any!

Office won't run on Linux or through Wine (AFAIK), I've converted to using LibreOffice on both Linux and Windows, which has yet to give me any issues.
Teams, as part of O365, also doesn't have a Linux app, however... with the (paid) Thunderbird addon Owl for Exchange, you can read+send Outlook emails; it also adds a Teams icon to your Thunderbird sidebar that acts as a link to the web client.
Thunderbird, by default, can only read from Exchange mailboxes, but can't send from them. If you don't want to pay, the developers are working to add full Exchange support as stock. (There are also less legitimate ways to get Exchange support, like cracking Owl, but out of respect for the addon dev, you'll have to find it yourself)
Edit:
If you're new to Linux as a whole, I've seen many recommendations for Mint (a Debian and Ubuntu derivative), but I've never tried it myself. I started with Debian since I wanted a stable system that wouldn't break down by itself or something. It's rock solid on my Framework 13 Ryzen.
As for a Desktop Environment (DE), you can't go wrong with GNOME or KDE. I prefer KDE since I don't like the "look" of GNOME and it's more "Windows-like" (but still it's own thing), but it's really just personal preference.
*.c files are C source files, you can't run these directly. Run the makefile with sudo make or sudo make install (assuming you have make installed) to build (or build and install) the driver.
edit: Oops didn't read far enough into your post, you've already tried make. What error does it give you?
Big fan of running cat file.json | ConvertFrom-Json and just being able to do things quickly!
Decided to buy another drive instead of doing any more harm than I needed to, no worries
unfortunately I was, lol
I've already bought another drive to avoid this funky shuffling, so I should be fine now
What's the advantage in btrfs over ext4? I've kept hearing about it since I started with Linux but the only advantage I can see with it is the snapshot rollback feature, which while useful looking, I don't think would be something I would use
Yep, I've just ordered another 8tb to copy to and avoid the headache that could be a drive failure. And it'll certainly be faster, gparted is still giving a 13 hour ETA for the first resize! Thanks for the help!
No issues with the GPlay version on Android 11
due to the way the Fediverse works (servers hosted on many different machines rather than one large machine), text search isn't (officially) possible. on Mastodon you have the option of searching by hashtags, but I don't think that works on Lemmy.
you would have to use an external search engine like DuckDuckGo, Google or something like https://www.search-lemmy.com/
TLDR; No
It hasn't been necessary in a long time, unless you're a developer who frequently needs to type in filenames in everywhere (since the command line needs extra protection against spaces and other symbols)
The OS (Windows, Mac, Android, etc) handles thar all for you so you don't have to worry about it (unless you happen to use a badly-written program that doesn't understand spaces, but this is super rare to begin with, and more protected against as time goes on)

Teams works for me as long as I'm not taking calls, just have to switch the user agent to pretend to be Chrome (but only sometimes)
