Yeah I agree. It was rolled out pretty early in its development maturity so it undoubtedly left a bad taste in some people's mouths. Overall it's a net positive though. I don't want to go back to the old way.

Debian and RedHat based distros typically do not bundle them together. The have separate -dev and -devel packages for headers.
If you need the python header files, depending on your distro, you may need to install python3-dev, python3-devel, python3, or some other variation on the name. For a novice, this might not always be obvious and they might not know things like apt-file are helpful for figuring it out.
True. It's the dependencies of dependencies where the tricky part starts.
Usually the only tricky part of compiling from source is tracking down dependencies. The package manager does that for you normally but you're not using the package manager when compiling from scratch. The actual building (even compiling a kernel) isn't all that complicated.
Mostly as kodi/plex front ends. I've set them up as a kubernetes cluster in the past but they didn't have enough ram to run my torrent client. Now I just use an old Thinkpad running talos.
I still don't really see the argument. OpenTofu exists because of internal drama about licensing on a tool that you don't use..
Someone building a different banana picker that looks just like another banana picker doesn't need to explain their reasoning in terms a coal miner would understand..
Also, literally just clicking the intro doc linked from the main page tells you everything you need to know..
If you're asking why aren't DevOps/SRE mentioned specifically on the OpenTofu front page, I don't think you understand how common this software is.. Like if someone forked Google, you wouldn't need to describe what Google is. Everyone already knows it. For the people in this industry, terraform is essentially a defacto monopoly. Even if you don't use it, if you're working in SRE, you know what it is and what it does.
Yeah this is just not for you. In the DevOps/SRE space, EVERYONE knows terraform and most of those names will be recognizable to the people most deeply involved in using/managing terraform.
It is.. For better or worse..
Why? What's the goal?
Struggling to think of what purpose systemd would serve in docker..
