  • Congrats! For me it also has bin godsend that the company allowwes Linux for developers as an exception. In my case it also means that you yourself are responsible for everything yourself, backup, upgrades, security, etc. The only thing they make sure is that the Cisco VPN is also working (it’s shitty but anyway) with Linux.

    But that is exactly what I want. They do offer a corporate Ubuntu image, which I used one time but hated it, so I blasted it and installed Arch (btw.).

    I still need to run MS office and Teams, but I do that in the Browser (have to use Chromium for it because it doesn’t work well in Librewolf). But like you say, those pills are much easier to swallow compared to winning Windows 11 on a daily basis, especially as a IT professional.

    Samsung galaxy smart tags are a thing and Find too, I’m using it on a daily basis.

    I use Syncthing as an alternative to iCloud to sync files between devices. But there is also NextCloud and even commercial offerings like DropBox.

    For Photos I use Immich and it’s amazing.

    And at least here in Korea Samsung Pay works everywhere while my wife with Apple Pay has to carry coach or a credit card with her everywhere she goes.
