As a long time Linux + KeePass user:
FUCK Windows and Microsoft for everything they’ve done to the general public and open-source software with their shit. Yeah yeah they are turning around, but still fuck them.
I have no strong feeling towards Bitwarden, but I will never put my secrets into anything non-FOSS. And I sync it with my Nextcloud.
Stallman was right about software.
I don’t disagree with you. It’s just that it’s not black and white. Your boss says no, you don’t try to go around. My wife says that she will only use Windows, yes dear. I use Debian, Raspbian, Windows 10, and Windows 11. Windows 10 feels the most comfortable and has the best compatibility. But yeah, I’m not a fanboi.
My SO switched to Linux with their latest PC, since they don’t need anything specific. Never even noticed much of a difference. They even play old games on it just fine.
I am in a priviledged position to not accept positions of work which hard-require Windows. I did work for companies with soft-requirements, but it was a corporate with solid Linux community, so they had workarounds for everything.
I’m not saying it’s easy to live the FOSS dream, but if one has the priviledge, they should choose to do so.
She knows Windows. I have thought of asking again but Linux isn’t exactly known for user friendliness, no matter the distro and WM.
I agree with using FOSS when feasible.
Even Linux Mint?
I have not tried Linux Mint though I have been thinking about it for a long time. My best bet is to make the experience so close that she doesn’t have to do anything different. She’s a bit burned out on all my tinkering.
I have Linux Mint installed with the Windows theme and Windows style cursor. It looks almost identical to Windows.
I thought bitwarden was open source?
Was yes. They have introduced an “internal sdk” into all their clients with no available source code. That’s what everyone’s complaining about. They call it a “packaging bug”, but in reality Bitwarden clients are just no longer open source.
what is all this shit?
Turning around in circles maybe.
