I don’t even trust Steam, let alone Mozilla. I don’t think I’ve ever had any credit card auto-fill on any browser I’ve ever had

The really irritating part is that tools like Playwright let you end-to-end test your product across the big three (Chromium, Firefox and Webkit). Which, most of the time, means these products that specify “Chrome only” simply aren’t E2E testing with modern tools.

This likely breaks your company’s terms of use. This can definitely lead to termination, especially since the other OS would likely not be monitor-able by them (opening them up to potential liability, along with the myriad of other issues)

The things I tend to gravitate towards:

• Flatpak
• Firefox of some kind (lately been loving Floorp)
• Keeper Password Manager extension on Firefox
• try to install some form of backup
• git (if not already available)
• nvm (Node version manager, usually I install the latest LTS)
• Go (sometimes I write Go programs)
• Steam (if I plan to play games)
• Sometimes I’ll install Zsh, sometimes Fish, then oh-my-zsh / oh-my-zsh
• Fastfetch (Neofetch is so slow?)

Dude went ahead and deleted the last one I commented on, at this point I think hes tryina use the “Delete post” button as the search button

Looks awesome!

I’m also a big fan of Mint for this, but also Fedora Kinoite. I can’t say I used Kinoite extensively, but I can say the bit I used it was far more stable than any other distro I used (and the backups-for-free approach really helped my anxiety lol)

Jeez, guy in the bottom left is not having a peaceful time 😬

As an engineer with a boss I really do not like and who makes moronic decisions ALL the time (that I then have to go along with), I agree

Good catch, sorry. Lubuntu, I just thought it used XFCE and not LXQt

Yes, this was my experience as well. Linux Lite was literally heavier-weight than Mint on my machine (probably due to the snaps)

I really hate to say this, but Lubuntu.

I enjoyed it for a solid few months (it’s a lightweight XFCE LXQt version of Ubuntu, so it worked great on my very underpowered MacBook Pro from ages ago) so it was heartbreaking when one day, randomly, I couldn’t get past the login screen and my TimeShift backups didn’t work.

If it wasn’t for this out-of-nowhere critical failure, I would say I loved it.

Nice! Congratulations!

I guess I’m moreso hoping the brands get in - specifically Samsung, Google and the others I listed. I think it would spur on a lot of new development in that area which is always a good thing

Pretty much - or Samsung, Xiaomi, Nothing or any of the other Android brands

Not shocked about the headaches (happens with most of the headsets), but I’m a little sad about the weight issues. That sucks - I’m an Android user but I was hoping Apple doing this would lead to some Android development in the same space

I love this bot

Sometimes I feel like @The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website literally keeps my feed (and all my subscriptions) alive. Thank you for your service 🫡

I started a decade ago on Ubuntu for an after-school cybersecurity club. From there, I eventually tried Mint and then Lubuntu and Kinoite. I’m now using Debian in WSL.
