I actually switched to Ubuntu full-time way back in 2006 when I went back to school (anthro major), specifically to help me focus when using my computer and not get distracted by playing video games. Of course, nowadays with wine and proton on steam, that might not be as effective. But it worked well for me, never experienced any issues with word docs opening in libre office (or rather open office back then) or vice versa. There was once or twice where I had to use a computer in the lab in the library to run some niche program or another for an assignment, but not a big deal.

You mean the ones where all the comments say [deleted]?

I use wX from f-droid. It uses data from the National Weather Service, so it might not be useful if you are located outside the US.

I’ve used them for years. Most years I have W-2s from multiple states, they’re the only free e-file that covers all states (with income tax) last I checked (I think h&r block did briefly, but I don’t think they even do free file anymore). They also do my state’s renters rebate, which most other free file providers don’t. I did have some issues several times with it switching me to only paid options at the very end, but a message to support always fixed it.

Xcrement

Unlike apple, who can totally be trusted.

I had to do that recently, ended up being easier to just temporarily change the password to something short on a pc, then change it back after.

I’d suggest checking out the official installation instructions linked at the top of the mint homepage. They’re pretty good.

ClamAV?

I think that’s a bug, and doesn’t mean anything. Unless there’s a new bug I’m unaware of, which is completely possible.

Pretty neat. Paid plans only, though.

I’ve used redreader for probably as long as I’ve had a smart phone, would be amazing if it was converted to Lemmy.
