I wish my clients were smart enough to use anything other than Windows. The average American isn't. Oddly enough, I'm personally using this opportunity to migrate from Apple to Linux.

Someone with an MBA denied a security expenditure along the way and this is what they got.

Far from what Trump is doing to the US, Microsoft is increasingly releasing worse and worse products. As an American, I'm actively working to reduce my dependence on the garbage that is produced by American tech giants. I'm happy to see organizations with far more stature than me doing the same. Please leave Microsoft behind and use better FOSS and EU sources!

Looks like there are some butthurt readers of your comment. Ignorance is bliss, as they say.

She's pandering to her base of people who have never left the state and only know of other places through what they see on Fox News and other biased sources. This state is about 99% morons with a few intelligent, educated people keeping things running. Some of us are desperate to get out, though.

I was looking for a point to cancel Paramount+. I guess I found it.

If you haven't already, divest yourself of MS software and services.

Built rather than bought? I'm guessing. I was wondering if you were using a System76 system.

I have it on a 3700X with a 3060, but that's not my main system. Right now I'm working the migration mostly on a Dell Latitude I grabbed from work.

What hardware are you using?

I'm always hesitant to daily drive non-stable but you may be right. I played around with an early Alpha and it was pretty nice but also pretty bare bones.

I'm in the same situation. I've been a Linux user in some form for many years but I'm just now getting to the daily driver desktop stage. I'm trying to work out all the little nuances in migrating from macOS/iCloud. I'm doing it with Pop because that's the distro that has felt the most natural to me. However, I'm finding that some of the apps don't support my cloud syncing needs adequately (e.g., Calendar, Contacts, Reminders). Part of it is just finding the right cloud provider but I'm also. hoping the new COSMIC apps have better CalDAV and CardDAV support. At this point it's just minor things so here's hoping for a bit better results with the newer version. It's Linux, though, so I'm sure I can find a solution.

That's the great thing about it. You choose what works for you. When you don't chase what other people think you should be using, you get more value out of what you want to be using.
