Wait isn't OnlyOffice more feature wise closer to MS office, and with a more similar layout? Used it shortly but realized I like the "older" non ribbon UI of LO, but I'm still relearning the old office layout.
Various stuff, some not best practice per se but here it is (more focused on digital sovereignity than anything else these days):
Degoogled my android phone to the greatest degree without breaking essential stuff. Noticed better battery life so a unintended win
moved off from Outlook to paid hosted email in my country. Cheap, reliable and have full control over it. Also in case of any issues way easier to get support
Cancelled M365 subscription as I don't use office and was using it purely for cheap OneDrive backup for family
Moved all my files for me and my family off of OneDrive to my Synology NAS. Ended up using more of its functionality, happy with the purchase. Doing the occasional backup to the external drive just in case
Ditched proprietary authentication apps in favor of Keepassxc. TOTP codes on any synced device so if I lose my mobile phone I don't get locked out of anything. Local only was mandatory
For work stuff I use ente auth, separating work and private MFA
Replaced windows on all my machines with linux. Its become more user friendly in recent years and does not get in my way.
Replaced all US service providers with EU ones where possible, if any service gets cut off for EU I won't lose access to anything important, never know with Trump these days...
KDE plasma. Coming from 30 years of running exclusively windows it's just the most comfortable and easy for me to use (way more than Gnome). Easily configurable, works. Can't ask for more.
Yep, used Skygrabber, you could filter out files depending on extensions, filenames etc and could narrow out what you wanted. Still had no real way of knowing what you'd end up with as you were effectively just passively listening on the satellite traffic. It was wild as you could fill out a 40 gig drive overnight without issues in the era where people were downloading a MP3 album for hours.
If you had real shitty internet back in the day (read 56k modem) and you liked to play russian roulette you would dump satellite traffic with a skystar2 DVB-S card. You never knew what you'd get realistically, found some true gems underneath mountains of coal in the day of (still) unfiltered internet.
Those two are really the only good use cases today for facebook. Insane how Marketplace pretty much overnight almost killed local listing sites. Events I don't see good alternatives, don't have much hopes for that one, time will show
I just switched to Bazzite yesterday and it's insane how far linux has come. Next-next and everything works, even on a nightmare combination of hardware (Lenovo Legion half assed uefi, amd apu+ nvidia gpu).
For the first time in a long time I might stick seeing the state of Linux today, especially Plasma 6. I'm eyeing Fedora 40 or Bazzite, tried Kinoite and pretty much everything I need works out of the box, the only thing I need to figure out is OneDrive.
How down-puttingly assuming of you to know me or my country who in its entire long history never invaded someone and was mostly a vassal for others. We gained independence after a bloody civil war which tore the country apart and saw its fair share of genocide, during which the whole world stood by the sidelines. No, muslims are not the only victims of this cruel world.
No, I generally don't comment on politics exactly because it breeds polarizing comments like this, but this open call for death for any side is horrific from my point of view, who saw what it does to a nation. This outlook of complete eradication of the other side is what is preventing any possible long lasting peace, and truthfully if the people don't recognize it there won't be anybody left to see it. As it currently stands there will be no peace until one side completely displaces the other, which is not what I or the vast majority of the world want.
In the same boat, I miss it still, other ones have a worse UI for me and hate the ad slots in the app although I have DNS ad blocking but its still annoying. Do update me if you find a good replacement as we're looking for the same thing
You may hit the nail on the head, once you get the broom you just breeze past everyhring. The forbidden forest may be the most dense content wise on foot, everything after that does feel more sparse as it was designed with the broom in mind. All in all I still enjoyed the game and got my moneys worth out of it, I did pick it up rather cheap on a sale
Wait this can't be right 🤨
See people wouldn't need to install Word if the builtin wordpad opened Word documents. They can upsell it to you and use your data

Who in their right mind celebrates kills on humans, in the end only regular people get harmed in any conflict, never the instigators from both sides
Shout out for Smart Tube, the best YT app on smart boxes/android TVs, never had any issues
Now that you say it like that, why do purely singleplayer games need internet connectivity at all beside DRM and shovong DLCs down peoples throats
Care to ELI5 for us casuals who did not catch and are missing the obvious?
Maybe yt-dlp might be for the job?
Just a few days ago I downloaded some videos from Vimeo without issues which required sign in to even view
Ubisoft won't own my money too!
Right off the bat it sit right, thank you
