Couple things:

Maybe opnsense over pfsense, pfsense people aren’t nice Proxmox is great but consider running docker in an lxc container as well

Debian is a good option but I’d actually recommend Fedora. It’s been very stable for me.

Pspspsps

Solaar can do this

Yeah I’m sure they’ve got a lot of flac over this

I often use dufs

I wonder if selectively mirroring flathub is an option. The point of the fedora flatpak repo is to only have open source applications isn’t it?

Yeah that’s what they said

Alpaca is great, I can even run it on my oneplus 6t, albeit slowly and the max size I got running was llama 7b

The difference is user consent

I think you certainly won’t get that from pretty much one developer. Thunderbird already has experimental support and it is one of their priorities

Their entire cloud infrastructure runs on Linux

Thunderbird is quite nice with the new updates

Appimage doesn’t do deduplication of packages does it?

OpenSSH depends on OpenSSL

As an admin who manages windows devices, it’s not only a pain for the end users. I will readily admit that the management tools are quite extensive and somewhat easy to use, but they’re damn near impossible to debug when they don’t work, and that’s quite often. Gpo’s often refuse to apply without reason, those ads on the Lock Screen? You can remove those if you pay for enterprise or education edition. Running pro? Nope you get ads.

Also flatpaks are moving away from file system permissions towards portals. Though currently I wouldn’t see flatpak as much of a security measure.

I use it with miniflux to sync between my iPhone, Linux phone, and desktop/laptop

I used a thinkpad x1 tablet with rnote for a long time. It was really great except for the battery life.

Have you used Wayland in the last four/five years?
