Check out the “Screen Rotate” gnome extension (by shyzus). It adds a button in the gnome quick settings menu that allows you to disable auto rotate, and has the option to add a button to manually switch between portrait or landscape rotation.

Why isn’t KDE Neon ever recommended? It seems like it would be a solid option.
Sure, people should not use their work computer for personal use.
However, I would say the majority of people absolutely do use it for occasional personal use. Checking your personal email at work? Googling driving directions to the dentist? Using the pdf editor to fill out a form? Searching for a flight during your lunch break? I would say everyone I see at work does this, and I would bet that when they take their laptop home they would not hesitate to boot it up for personal use. And the people working remotely I would wager use it even more.
I’m not saying it’s right, but I do think using a completely separate SSD and OS is way more responsible from a security perspective.
I don’t think you even need consent-o-matic. uBlock Origin can block the cookie popups (it’s just not enabled by default)
I’m interested in more details if you want to share. What are the other specs/components of your machine? What OS and software do you run? How do you handle backups?
By default it’s not enabled in uBlock Origin. Go to the filter list settings and enable the appropriate Annoyances filters for Cookie Notices (or just enable all the Annoyances filters)
I can’t seem to find a decent simple open source guitar tuner app for Android

How do I get started with Mastodon? Are there multiple instances to choose from like Lemmy, or do you just sign up on mastodon.social?
Also, it looks like you can access Lemmy communities from there - so how is it different than just using Lemmy?
The page always seems to load just fine, but nothing happens when I press the play button. It has never worked for me - am I doing something wrong? (Firefox on Android)
In the 1970’s Exxon not only knew about climate change due to the burning of their fossil fuels, they accurately predicted global warming projections. And studies by their internal scientists continued to predict and verify global warming in a bunch of reports between 1977 and 2003. Yet they still continued to lobby against renewable energy and admitted that they still aggressively fought climate change science.

Electronic hobbyist pages for Arduino and Expressif microcontrollers for project help and showcasing protects people are working on:
I haven’t had the laptop long enough to know what happens after updates. However, if Microsoft wants to reset any of the changes or reinstall software or features, they will regardless of what methods or tools you’ve used to debloat. I like this tool because it’s easy to run and can be done periodically (like after major updates) without much hassle. And it’s open source on GitHub which I very much appreciate.
