almost no one lives in Siberia
LOL, seriously? There are ~1 mln people living in Irkutsk, Bratsk and Angarsk (all UTC+8). And there are much bigger cities in UTC+7 like Novosibirsk and Krasnoyarsk. Of course there are much fewer people than in China but that's not "almost no one".
However I agree that the malicious actor is likely from Europe or Middle East. I also investigated their activitity time but instead of commit timestamps that are easy to fabricate I looked at their GitHub activity time. Unfortunately, the GitHub API only allows to get events for the latest 90 days, but that is enough make some guesses (but not to say if they live in a country with the daylight savings time switchover).
Below are extracted timestamps for those who want to examine them.

What? Use a bloatware that consumes a lot of resources, slows down the whole system and increases the attack surface instead of regular updates? Are you kidding?
Maybe Devuan or another Debian derivative.
/bin/sh is always /bin/sh.
MacOS and Linux are similar for the purpose of learning Python. However I recommend to install GNU/Linux. MacOS hides its internals to provide a better user experience, however as a developer you need to learn how the OS works, and GNU/Linux is much better suited for this.
It includes generated font files together with sources. There's no point in storing them in VCS. Instead of this, the repo should contain scripts to generate font files from sources.
Store the fontforge file and a Makefile to generate TTF and other formats in git and provide an archive with generated fonts as a release.
It's a window manager feature. I don't know which one is used in Cinnamon by default and if it is able to do so, but you can switch to another one anyway even without changing the complete DE. E. g. xfwm4 provides such a feature. I believe that kwin also does.
I also suggest you to try some tiling WM, you may like it.
