That would be Windows.
For server config management there are lots of tools. FreeIPA and Ansible will do quite a bit, but when getting into stuff to manage Linux desktops fleets there isn’t a lot of endpoint management out there.
Fleet Commander is the main effort out there, and then Red Canary.
There really isn’t.
It’s only every so often with extensions, and every release reduces the number of extensions I use.
I forgot about easy integration with iPhones. Tethering requires extra steps and I haven’t tried pulling files off.
Support for auto cloud sync from vendors, or just auto cloud sync of setting between devices.
DE stability. I keep a Mac around for times when Gnome is kind of broken.
cmd shortcuts which don’t interfere with app shortcuts.
Powerful desktop Arm chips.
Gui to manage services.
Gui to manage firewall.
Easy fleet management tools.
A real terminal services and Remote Desktop solution.
Desktop icons.
Tighter userland security.
Tighter OS security. Mostly dm-verify and fs-verify.
Tiling support. (There are extensions, but I need to experiment.)
Not having to recompile out of tree kernel modules after a kernel upgrade.
Base and extras being cleanly separated.
Debian in WSL is my single favorite thing about Windows work laptop. Real tools! 😃
I’m back on windows for work after a decade away, and all the reasons I left are still there. The tools are still lacking, the layout is non-sensical, prototyping requires expensive subscriptions, and it’s not designed to get work done.
*nixes and macOS, to a lesser extent, are much nicer. The *nixes are designed to get work done. I have my gripes, but good lord they’re small comparatively.
Agreed.
Vim/Neovim and Spacemacs (Emacs) are so much more addictive than NPP.
That’s cool if NPP is OP’s thing, but there are quite a few text editors which check those boxes in the *nix world.
It is, which is rather annoying.
I should spend some more time with the FOSS forges, but bare git works for me when I’m self-hosting my own repos.
The workflow is also kind of obtuse.
FD: I prefer GitLab between the two.
It’s possible. That’s basically web scraping.
JetBrains Rider is probably the best C# IDE for Linux, and MS ported .NET server stuff a while ago.
I’m not sure about C# GUI toolkits on Linux. WPF isn’t there, and I’m not sure how mature Maui is on Linux.
Dell Latitudes and Precisions support Linux pretty well.
Git repos of some helpful scripts and configs.
Music.
Profile backup.
They also just bought an Ad network, so can’t get ad revenue if they can’t track people.
Synergies™
Or $HOME/.var/log.
There is a .local folder these days.
Profile roaming hasn’t been solved aside from NFS mounts. I guess Syncthing might work.
Why would go have a virtual environment or dep tree like node_modules equivalent, it’s not interpreted or dynamically linked.
With modules, dependencies can be vendored.
Forgejo is working on federation. That is the big item.
Not really. He posts under his own name, so I recognized it from the forums.
He’ll have more time to spend on the Phoronix forums now. 🙂
Which which one?
I use firewalld regularly. Firewalld isn’t a GUI, and it’s a wrapper around Nftables and/or iptables depending on the distribution.
I haven’t tried opensnitch.
Not having to use a Gnome extension to get desktop icons. 🙂 Although, other DEs aren’t much better.
DKMS is setup, and I still have to plan my kernel upgrades due to the compilation time.
