Sometimes people manage other computers so it’s not practical to configure all of them and you can’t trust what people have configured for the power button

I saw other people mentioning managing multiple computers in an offise space. I wouldn’t trust that everybody wound configure the power button action.
Not on mobile but on desktop Firefox Multi-Account Containers paired with Temporary Containers is a funcking godsend. Especially so when I’m doing web dev work.
Other that that uBlock is pretty high on the list as usuall.
It’s an easier click target when it’s in the corner. Moving cursor from the middle to the corner is negligible for me since I can reach the whole screen with relatively minor mouse movement.
In the end it’s a muscle memory thing for me. Having the button in the middle just means I have to look for it in a different location than I’ve used to over the years.
But wont this change how search is displayed? Honestly, I hope I can keep my alphabetical order. Learning some algorithmic categorization is not what I want to spend my time at work.
I just Alt + F4 from the desktop or just press the power button. I always change it to regular old shutdown.
Never thought about ultrawide screens, that makes sense. Other than that I see no improvement whatsoever. Corner space is way easier to hit with a mouse, but even when using keyboard shortcuts having it in the middle is just an additional adjustment from what it used to be.
An OS should get out of my way and let me do what I do. Changing design language forces me to relearn what I had already had a flow for. In other words it’s utterly useless.
And I just know I’m gonna hate that automatic categorisation of apps, just as I hate web searches from start menu. Alphabetical order is predictable, but this I’d have to relearn.
Ok, offline functionality does make sense
Why use an app when there’s a web site? In case of Wikipedia I fail to see any functional benefit for an app.
I’m the kind of user that cares about function over form, so everything in Windows 11 just annoyed me. Mainly because it was just changes in design that required me to reorient and to learn to use again with no good reason.
I still use Windows at work just because our whole dev stack is on Windows. And every new design change just gets in my way. An OS should enable me do the things that I need and want, it should move out of my way. Sure I’ve added some hacks to restore the functionality I was used to. But the fact that I need to fight the OS to bring back context menus annoys me to no end.
Also, as a dev, I find many things easier done on Linux that Windows, mainly because it just has a better CLI support. It’s not as bad now with Windows terminal, winget
and other improvements (dotnet
having a proper CLI interface), however I still mostly use git-bash for common stuff like searching the file system. Not to mention that for something like docker I basically just need WSL.
Dunno never saw the appeal anyway
Snapchat has a web client? :o
I develop and test only on firefox
uBlock usually blocks those cookie pop-us for me, didn’t really noticed them.
Never had this happen to me. Not sure if it’s my browsing habits or something with my setup (basic if you ask me), but I’ve never encoutered such sites.
I mean technical problems require technical knowledge. I don’t see how this is that much different from adding a drive to a Windows system and then having to format it so that it works properly.
Can I partition /home directory in a different drive and still fuction?
Transferring /home directory without reinstalling Linux?
I would say yes and yes.
Best way to partition my / and /home directories?
While I didn’t do it on Fedora with KDE, I did it on Ubuntu GNOME. I can’t imagine the process being much different. You basically just need to set up a partition, mount it on /home and copy the files, after all /home directory is nothing special, it just contains files.
Now my setup involved setting up an encrypted partition and then mapping it via LVM. Your milage may wary, but the process should be rather straigthforward with some google’ing and messing around.
Slap Google SSO on that and you’re good. Honestly that’s worse than regular registration.
Whatever is the default, as long as that is not some comic sans or whatever that Samsung font abomination was.
I wouldn’t consider it superior, just different, in case of a keyboard shortcut.
