fTPM is firmware TPM, it is not physical.

You need to specifically use a GDPR export with shreddit though, it’s not magic, and if you don’t have a GDPR export, it can’t get around the 1000 post limit on the profile.

Any script or service you used can only access the most recent 1000 comments in your history.

This isn’t quite 100% true. Shreddit supports getting its comment list from a GDPR request, and if you do that, then it CAN access the older comments and delete them, it just doesn’t have any other way than that data request file to know about their existence.

The fact that they are too old to show up in your profile is WHY it can’t delete them. The only way to delete those automatically is to feed in a GDPR data request into a tool like Shreddit that supports getting its comment list from that source rather than the profile.

There has to be a small unused area at the start for the partition table. 2MB is far more than is needed for that, but leaving less would tank performance due to the fs blocks and disk blocks not being aligned.

I know Gentoo has it masked for testing with this note, which is probably the same reason why other distros without the same mechanism don’t have it at all:

Testing. An upgrade from 102 isn’t recommended due to downgrading most likely not being possible. Back up your profile before attempting. Fresh install should be fine. Bug #910229
