Yeah, it's still missing a few flags (Ireland, Greece, Lithuania, Letony...). There wasn't much space left around to do them without overriding someone else's art, and too little time to do it (thank you to everyone who went well into the night to make the estonian one <3)
At least Norway didn't end up completly cursed haha.
Got the same issue here on Kubuntu with when activating transparent background in Konsole with an AMD GPU (flickering of background between transparent and solid).
It only started happening when I switched to Wayland. X11 does not share the issue.
I managed to fix it in Konsole somehow by switching to another apperance theme in the profiles configuration (you might see there that, for some reason, Breeze is duplicated, which I suspect is what responsible for the flickering).
Have used Hugo, and I don't really know what you mean by 'not very easy to customize client side code'. Hugo works with 'themes', which you can either download online, or create yourself. Customizing CSS, JS and even the HTML structure can easily be done by modifying/patching said theme.
Ehhhh... considering what they did to the .NET stack recently (removing dotnet watch from the open source builds to bundle it with Visual Studio and only reverting due to the huge community backlash), I think at least some cautiousness would be warranted.
No. It should be available on all platforms. I think they're just rolling it out progressively to get feedback and test it for bugs.
Probably in order for Google to know how much of its searches come from being the default search engine in Firefox clients. It is probably part of their deal, and would logically affect the amount of money Google is paying Mozilla to be the default.
