    I wish I could use Linux at work but the software used does not have any alternative (that I can use) and I can’t be bothered with debloating and all that jazz. I try to keep work and private seperate instead.

      Tried get my dad to use Linux for his work but had problems with his clients not being able to open the files he sent using the Linux word and Excell programs. So that’s clear for him not to use Linux.

      My work has a process for requesting software. Over the last five years, I’ve been slowly getting open source alterntives approved, using them, and telling coworkers they’re approved. It’s just one super specialized software left.

      Teams.

      I fucking hate teams.

      Why are we using teams.

      Why did they change outlook, it used to actually be good.

        There used to be a linux repo for installing teams but they recently removed it. Now you’re forced to use the shitty excuse of a PWA.

          Either way I’m stuck on W11 at work. No way am I installing teams on my machine at home.

      To me the funniest part is that telemetry is usually for ads to convince people to buy stuff, and secondly for nation states to track you, but the debloat crowd usually never leaves home (a registered address) or buys anything, and surprisingly apt at credit card points with the money they do spend (the og trackers).
