This is probably the best resource for keeping track of which search engine options exist and what their quality is like: https://seirdy.one/posts/2021/03/10/search-engines-with-own-indexes
For a “fire and forget” option that doesnt require any configuration you cant go wrong with good ol DuckDuckGo: https://duckduckgo.com
If you’re okay with dealing with more configuration and breakage then Searx can be pretty powerful as its a metasearch engine that can search with every search engine you tell it at once and agregate the results(while proxying things to maintain privacy): https://searx.space (had decent luck with the https://search.sapti.me instance if you just wanna try it out without searching through a list of options)
Also all search engines are kinda bad due to SEO spam and “AI” generated images and articles polluting the results, consider using uBlacklist to help you filter out the trash from search results(think of it like ublock origin for search engine results), can use it for basically any search engine so no reason to not set it up: https://github.com/iorate/ublacklist
No, that’s a different protocol, the tearing patches, already merged, but i believe we’re still waiting on some patches to the kernel to get them fully working(i think it was kernel 6.8 that had them), Nvidia’s drivers also need to add support for it, they’ve given no timeline for that so far however

That blogpost is considered to be somewhat flawed with its information, as explained here: https://tesk.page/2021/02/11/response-to-flatkill-org/
You can, infact there’s outright a mesa git runtime one can add, i don’t imagine too many systems roll so fast as to outpace it https://docs.flatpak.org/en/latest/available-runtimes.html
Two utilities that may be handy for you here:
Pakrat: Automates and simplifies the process of creating alliases for flatpaks, good if you just need to make a few programs be simplified
Fuzzpak: Lets you do fuzzy searches for flatpaks(as in you just write fuzzpak inkscape and it auto looks for something with inkscape in the flatpak folder and launches it), good for when you want to simplify launching flatpaks in general without doing the process of configuring stuff manually
The themes section on the desktop integration doc here might be of use: https://docs.flatpak.org/en/latest/desktop-integration.html
This may be useful for further elaboration: https://www.reddit.com/r/flatpak/comments/y9jmqj/the_general_flatpak_qt_and_gtk_theming_guide/
Going off of these guides my best guess would be that you don’t yet have kvantum or some other theme runtime installed within flatpak
I’ll also mention Stylepack exists for automating and streamlining theme installation, it’s only for GTK currently however but maybe will be of use in future: https://github.com/refi64/stylepak
Thankfully it is largely just a few commands with built in tools to tell the drive firmware to secure erase
