Not sure what exactly is your question aiming at. Each desktop
environment is different, kind of like the controls inside a car,
while they all are made to bring you from A to B.
Still for my trying out tiling window managers was a big step in
becoming more productive. I love my i3wm. Try them out

It can also be explained by IP-based geolocation being accurate in that

Tha user manual of the modem says that voice calls are allowed,
Keywords are "hybrig graphics" and "PRIME". Maybe, these links can be helpful:

Hello debian-user,
I have an internet connection via a router provided by my ISP. I have a
Linux box (Debian Buster) between this router and my internal network in
order to provide nicer firewalling and some services like OpenVPN, wifi
for guests without access to the internal network, and so on.
