I'n using Elementary OS right now. It's been my daily driver for several years on a low powered laptop as a Chromebook replacement. I run browser, messaging, and occasionally some light photo or audio editing.
No complaints. Works great. Solid. Looks great. If you have a similar use case, I recommend it. All of the people ITT talking about what's wrong with it have not changed my mind that it's just what I need.
I hear Americans eat babies too. I'm not even sure they are human, right?
I'm sure people get annoyed or ignore you because you're just too truthful, not because you're ridiculous.
I don’t think Windows is seamless either. It’s just what most people are used to.
This. I've never used Windows 11. Apparently, they are removing the Control Panel. If I can't figure out how to fix a problem that comes up, I'm going to have to search for the answer and test out solutions. This is no different from Linux.
I like how on Amazon, the "Rufus" thing always pops up over the stuff I'm trying to read.
"How can I turn off rufus" didn't come up with anything except how to turn it off in the app, not on the website.
I had to use Ublock Origin to select and block it.
Very overstable.
Several years ago, I found a 3.5" floppy in an old desk, so I wrote "(My company's product) Production backup - DO NOT LOSE" on the label, and then left it on the floor in a main hallway of our office.
In my mind, it hopefully made a few people chuckle, but my real dream was that someone picked it up and tried to return it to the development team.
The linked article in this post is from a pretty sketchy biased site, and you're right that they are using inflammatory language rather than accurate language. I'm no expert, but it sounds FB may have had a point blocking this account. I hate Facebook, but not because of this.
People are downvoting you, but you're correct. I don't work a particularly sensitive or interesting tech job, but we've had 2 candidates in the last year who were faking who/where they were. One had other people in the room feeding them answers. I'd expect weirdness in remote interviews as companies figure out how to navigate this.
If Firefox works for you, I'd recommend it. I could make a huge list of my subjective pros and cons, but who cares what I think?
The most important thing is that I'd recommend getting off Chrome, because Google is attempting to use their market position to make the internet worse for users. Try all the alternatives and see which one you like.
That seems a lot more meaningful. GDP is going up, and most people are still feeling the crunch? That is a correctly identified issue that needs a solution.
If you do stuff that historically fixes a real recession, you're going to potentially make that problem worse.
The real reason: Apple intentionally doesn't support the open protocols that send pics and videos to non-Apple devices. These protocols are a decade old and work great. They use a proprietary protocol instead, which they will not share with other phone manufacturers.
What the average iPhone user thinks: Apple is better than Android!
It's pretty dumb.
