I think the issue is Apple guards their wallet so tightly that basically no jurisdiction can get their IDs in it

Regardless of how you interpret the statistics, I think that this is a sign that the long vexed problem of software distribution for Linux has been significantly improved. Not quite solved, but for most desktop apps this is fantastic news.

This is slightly unrelated, but I’ve been slowly moving to Linux from windows for a while. I haven’t made the full plunge yet, but here’s my biggest strategy:

Use as many apps on windows as you can on Linux.

I’m using Okular, Ghostwriter, Libreoffice, Cider, etc. every month or so, another app is moved across.

Then, I make the switch and all my apps are there as I’m used to them.

If you have the room, you can often buy these second hand for a bargain from colleges etc. They’re built like tanks and you can wash almost anything inside them. When they do break, laundry operators try to DIY so there are videos everywhere on how to do repairs.

I often use fields, so I have to go back to desktop Word eventually to add them in. 🥲

Users only use a fraction of the feature set but everyone uses a different fraction 😂

How good are VMs at booting a physical partition?

We need more browser engines, especially those that are under NFP ownership. WebKit and Chromium have become too dominant.

I’ve had success with Focalboard and noticed nobody is using it here! Should I look at alternatives?

Me: how many applications have you got installed? SimplyMepis: Yes.
