In 5E, no. In OSR, yes!

You could always make the rumors about the edge play up the attributes that the player like about themselves. If the player likes the admiration for being heroic, make up rumors about the edge being super heroic and everyone loves them. You can make the reality as light or dark as you want, but if you go dark make sure the PCs are the only witnesses to their real selves.

Fantastic advice!

Maybe thinking about the exploration in your game as a point crawl could serve you well.

Think up a bunch of interesting locations and encounters for your players to experience, then for each encounter/location roll 1d4-1, that is how many other encounters it links to, randomly pick from your other encounters/locations for each link.

For how to generate the encounters/locations there are many tool sets to draw ideas from. Books like the Tome of Adventure Design, Worlds Without Number, Knave, Shadowdark, etc. Online tools from don jon, hexroll, or others.

Let me know if you would like other specific recommendations and happy gaming!

Nothing, and so they do. Dell will sell you an XPS 13 with Ubuntu installed. Lenovo will let you select Ubuntu or fedora in some models. System76 and Tuxedo will sell you a bunch of laptops only with Linux. Starlabs sells Linux laptops. KDE sells a laptop. Purism sells Linux laptops.

Did you just assume no one sells a Linux laptop?

Because there isn't a sensible part of the party. They have all succumbed to the greed of trumpism.

Nothing Microsoft ever does should be trusted or relied upon. They are a bad actor who always operates in bad faith and should be treated as such.
