If you have budget, Thinkpads can't go wrong. You can also find refurbished.

Tuxedo and Framework are also excellent choices.

Thanks for sharing, this is indeed a great feature and makes GOS even stronger! Just enabled and love it!

For the home screen, I keep the regular PIN, so I have to type instead of using fingertips. But for apps that requires authentication (after you are already logged in), it's really convenient use fingertips instead of the pin for convenience.

For native sync, the two good and reputable alternatives are Bitwarden and Proton Pass

Yes. If you don't agree with the CEO, keep in mind that he is not the owner, they moved to a nonprofit structure. Proton's CEO is not the first one saying stupid things, the same happened with Mozilla, Brave, and perhaps many other reputable groups.

Proton products are good, IMHO the layout is OK.

It's good, but not the only one. If you don't feel comfortable with Proton, go to Mailbox.org, Posteo, Tuta. They are smaller, with less products on their portfolio, but reputable and as good as Proton.

I use Standard Notes and Logseq

Standard Notes mostly for personal use, build a knowledge base where I can set categories to each not without rushing.

Logseq for professional use. I often join meetings with lots of people discussing topics for different projects. With Logseq, I can easily write down notes and add tags to easily correlate people, project, topic, status. I don't need to think which category to save that note, just write on the Journal page and add the tags. Easy! The advanced queries is an amazing featured, I can easily create queries to summarise status of each project and who is working on it. With that in mind, I can easily send status reports to the stakeholder with just one click.

Both are private and don't belong to any of the big tech. Standard notes was acquired by Proton (from ProtonMail), and it is E2EE. Logseq uses local storage, but its possible to sync (can be quite tricky).

I've been using Ecosia, it's basically Google results, but with more privacy, and they invest the revenue in tree-planting projects.

Mostly for fun/learning and to tweak some Fedora packages to my needs. I keep my own RPM repository.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 4 months ago (8 children)

Fedora with GNOME.

I've been using it for over than 10 years in my main computer.

It simply works, it's nice, fresh packages, stable, GNOME is productivity champion (at least I know all the shortcuts, and how to tweak it to my daily use). I also know how to build and manipulate RPM packages, so it's pretty convenient.

Coffee. I mean, high quality Specialty Coffee. Grind the beans by yourself, feel that aroma, complete the ritual by sipping the black nectar of productivity. It will be the best moment of your entire day.
