Installing a software using the package manager will (as far as I'm aware) always result in them being installed into the default directories.
If you want to change that for an app, you need to compile it on your own and define the paths.

Just gave it a try. If you need help installing don't hesitate to ask.
I use Mint but compiled it by myself - out of curiousity, took maybe 3 minutes.
I've read boot-repair works for that
sourceforge.net/projects/boo...
Or otherwise, Live linux, identifying the efi partition (lsblk), mounting it and chrooting into it, installing the boot loader would be an alternative.
For details the distribution would be good to know.
Best tool (combi) for managing appimages is
https://github.com/Shikakiben/AM-GUI
Provides a nice clean app store GUI for AM (a great cli tool - https://github.com/ivan-hc/AM
Huge catalog of app, easy to modifiy (f.e. having development and release versions installed at the same time).

It has to be an active decision by the distribution makers.
userdbd.c is only included if the compile flag for userdb is set.
Compiling systemd with default configuration doesn't include userdbctl (see meson_options line 133 of the source code)
At least on debian based systems aren't compiled with the userdb flag set to true, so no userdb component installed.
As said, never seen a distro which had it enabled by default.
In the end its up to the distribution to use userdb and the DOB field or not.
I never used Arch myself. Does it install userdb by default?
None of the distros I used had systemd-userdb installed by default.
Yes, For server still Debian, for PC/Laptop I finally made the switch to Mint 3 years ago. After ~15 years of trying distros to eventually switch back to Windows every time.
At home, learning by doing (and failing). Later pushed into the cold water since our game clan admin has chosen to leave and I had the pleasure to administrate a root server (that's 18 years ago)
Did they actually remove it or only changed the icon?
Asking since the place where it was is suddenly occupied by a different, formely unkown (at least to me) icon.
Some laptops need special care do so. My Medion (Clevo barebone) had a BIOS locked on "Windows Sleep". After "cracking" the BIOS, enabling the menu and setting it to "classic sleep", sleep and hibernate worked.
However, I disabled hibernate since wrinting 64GB Ram2Disk takes longer than a reboot.
Wenn nicht vorher die AI Bubble platzt und sich all die Kaufoptionen plötzlich in Rauch auflösen.
Quite happy and trouble-free with my dual-boot Volla (google free android and Ubuntu touch). So it's very much a YMMV situation.
3 years ago I gave Mint a try. So calm, so stable.
Still using it on Laptop and PC (both with NVidia 30X0 GPU).
Never had to fix anything and hope it stays that way.
Tbf, I'm using Linux (server side) for some days too, first self compiled kernel was a 2.4.
Over the years I tried many distribution to check whether they would fit for me as desktop (pc and laptop). I always came back to Windows after some days/weeks. Things I fixed broke again and so on.

Therefore it's better on focus on the task instead of the tool.
(Do I need Excel or "just a spreadsheet"?)
But one basic hint: Changing OS is like moving to a different country. Things work differently.
Many people get frustrated since they put a lot effort into making their Windows tools working on Linux. I would also be frustrated if I move to the US but am addicted to German bread quality.

Almost religious question, just like "what's the best car ;)
Grab an USB Stick, burn an Linux ISO on it to make a live USB stick to boot from.
Try some distros. Select the one which makes you feel "home" the most.
Doesn't matter that I prefer Mint, you need to be happy with your selection.
What with his whole cabinet and each and every soldier complying with the orders?
Oder Artikel 7 des EU Vertrages.....
Making an bootable USB stick on Mac should be rather easy, at least on the commands line.
Download the iso, plug the USB stick in to identify it (IIRC diskutil list), then write the iso to it
dd if=/path/to/the/iso.iso of=/dev/YourUSBStick bs=512
That should do the trick.
Ich versuche es mal so einfach auszudrücken wie es mir möglich ist:

Do you know any Linux distribution which uses the userdb component of systemd or has it even installed by default?
I'm not aware of one but happy to learn.
The whole ongoing outcry about systemd part in this age "verification" mess is kept alive on not understanding what systemd is and how it's implemented into the operating system.
Initiated by people who should know better but earn from clicks and views.
Take for example Linux Mint. You'll not find any of the userdb components installed by default. Same for Debian , just checked it.
sudo systemctl list-units --type=service | grep userdb
Do you know any mainstream distribution which actually uses it and has userdbd installed?
