“Sure, it is not perfect. But, sometimes it is incredibly helpful. No matter what you do with it, unfortunately, it is not an open-source solution.”

I use Linux at the office. I’m the only employee at my company who does.

I haven’t had many issues collaborating with others using libreoffice while they use MS office. I do keep a Windows VM running for those somewhat rare instances where I need Windows for something though. I also needed to invest quite some time to figure out Linux alternatives for everything (how to use company VPN, how to get MS Teams working, how to connect to network drives, etc).

But so far so good. Been 100% Linux at work for maybe ~1.5 years?

Very good suggestion. Alternativeto.net is a great resource that I return to often. Eased the transition greatly when I originally left the “mainstream apps”.

  • Mull is similar to Fennec except with some privacy tweaks. Generally Mull is better.
  • You don’t need Ghostery anymore

Congratulations! That’s awesome! I’ve been Google-free for 2-3 years, but I haven’t been brave enough to finally delete Gmail. I keep worrying I might need the message history one day?

Regarding Maps: I use OrganicMaps as my main, & I reflex to Gmaps WV when something isn’t in OrganicMaps. I feel this is a reasonable privacy-friendly compromise.

Oh yeah? I didn’t know that. I’ll have to look into it, thanks!

I hadn’t seen that, thanks!! I was also among those confused when Signal pulled SMS, but now it finally makes sense.

Signal could have done better PR to explain the “why” at the time.

Why GitLab!?

Sorry, I meant “GitLab, why’d you do that!?”

(I’m a GitLab user myself)

Multiple browser adblockers will also make your browser fingerprint more unique, which is undesirable for privacy reasons.

This is fantastic! Gnome is such a great project! Well done!

This will sound silly, but I didn’t realize that governments support open source like this. But it’s such a good idea! It’s similar to governments funding a park or a road any other public resource. Open source projects fit very nicely there!

What’s the “Bandcamp situation”?

The Lord of the Rings extended trilogy. It’s so long it feels more like a modern miniseries than individual movies.

That sounds amazing!!!
