Sure, but it's pretty clear that the topic of this English language article is the English language Wikipedia
Unless you need it for a high security environment that's limited to civilian procurement, why? I'm struggling to see a use case beyond that

And, as usual, "risk/threat to democracy" is used to mean "support for parties I don't like" It wasn't long ago that the Twitter shoe was on the other foot, and many of those complaining now were quite happy to endorse…
And how would they distribute that compiler-installer as a portable binary?

This headline is a good example of why title case should be considered harmful. It took me several times to parse correctly, since I initially read "Application" and/or "Notes" as proper nouns

A wedding is a social event with friends and family. I am going there to see the people. A flight is a functional form of transport which is shared out of necessity. I am going there to pay as little mind to the other…
How well does Zulip protect users' privacy against snooping admins? I.e., does it have E2EE DMs? Unfortunately, this is a legitimate threat to be concerned about

Yes. It's improved now, but the mobile web was bad for a long time. The early days of Android experienced a "web-first" ecosystem by force, as lazy businesses just threw a webview around their site, and it was awful
It's not users who are pushing this. It started off with just superfluous but optional apps of websites. Now every year I find there is something I used to be able to do, which I now must own a smartphone to do. And…
On the contrary, this thread seems to have a large number of users who can't handle criticism of Wikipedia without responding with unfounded assumptions and insinuations about the critic

That's true, but the same may already be true of your browser's cookie file. I believe Chrome on MacOS and Windows (unsure about Linux) now does use OS features to prevent it being read from other executables, but…
I believe Quartz is the go-to solution for this. It's not part of Spring but it offers a similar annotation-driven interface, but with distributed locking via a database
