https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB

Wikipedia will tell you what connector can be used with what version, the data rate, and the max. power charging capacity of each version.

I also like Niagara, but I feel I'm are kinda forced to pay for the pro version to get all the features I need.

The idea is that if a machine defaults to "legacy boot," meaning a BIOS-style boot, then use that to load U-Boot, which then provides a software emulation of UEFI so that the startup process can be simplified by the removal of BIOS support.

Sounds more like the illusion of simplicity

It's pretty good for privacy, the main issues with LineageOS is that it's often less secure than the stock OS, as long as the stock OS is getting updates.

DIY UPS sounds like the recipe for disaster.

I don't see how you would feed the UPS with 230V converted to 12V DC, why use the UPS if you have 230V mains?

You can say that, but NovaCustom is working with 3mdeb to develop the Coreboot based Dasharo firmware, and m3deb is committing their work to Coreboot.

Dasharo is the most promising attempt at making an open source firmware that is user-friendly enough that anyone can use it.

The fact that you can buy an MSI Z690 and flash coreboot, without having to compile from source or use an eprom programmer, is a massive step in the right direction.
