Try Material Files file manager. It’s the best file manager I’ve used, connects to remote servers, and is open source

Aegis looks great - I’ll give this a shot. Thanks for the recommendation!

This looks pretty good. Will look into this option for sure. Thanks for the suggestion!

I forgot about Codeberg - I’ll look into that and Gitlab as alternatives. Thanks for the suggestions.

Vorta is a great program for backing up files. Works on Windows, Mac, and Linux.

The best part is it works with Android as well. Whenever I turn my computer on, all my photos on my phone sync to my computer to a folder that gets regularly backed up (using Vorta which is an excellent and easy to use open source backup program for Windows, Linux, and Mac)

Check out the “Screen Rotate” gnome extension (by shyzus). It adds a button in the gnome quick settings menu that allows you to disable auto rotate, and has the option to add a button to manually switch between portrait or landscape rotation.

Why isn’t KDE Neon ever recommended? It seems like it would be a solid option.

Where did you buy it? Looking for something similar for myself.

Quite interesting. Thank you for the information!

Sure, people should not use their work computer for personal use.

However, I would say the majority of people absolutely do use it for occasional personal use. Checking your personal email at work? Googling driving directions to the dentist? Using the pdf editor to fill out a form? Searching for a flight during your lunch break? I would say everyone I see at work does this, and I would bet that when they take their laptop home they would not hesitate to boot it up for personal use. And the people working remotely I would wager use it even more.

I’m not saying it’s right, but I do think using a completely separate SSD and OS is way more responsible from a security perspective.

From a technical perspective I’m curious - how would they know a drive has been added without physically inspecting the laptop?

Thanks for the information. And good point - I will check to see if there’s any logs in the BIOS. Is there any way to know if boot logs are being sent? Is that a BIOS setting, or something that would be configured in Windows?

Opera has had this functionality for 10+ years on their mobile browser, and I would argue that it has always been their best feature by far as it has always worked beautifully. I just don’t understand how no other browser has implemented this feature.

I hadn’t come across this when I was trying to get it to work with Wine. This looks promising - I’ll give it a try next time!

That’s an interesting idea. I will give that a shot next time!
