You already posted one post about this...

Android 14 has the option to present itself (the phone) to a computer as a USB webcam. Very handy and does not require any special software on the PC.

Seems our experiences are vastly different. Back when I used KMail I had no real issues. Never lost emails and it worked with all my account (I didn't use Gmail at the time).

I haven't used it in a long while though, so my experiences are old. It doesn't sound like it has improved since. :(

KMail is a great email application, the main issue I have with it, is the Akonadi backend. It's really big and ressource heavy.

Thunderbird just does the same thing, with less ressources. It's also the main reason why I use Thunderbird instead of KMail.

That's true. It varies from person to person. I, for example, am an Arch user, so modern for me is only around a year or so. Ubuntu 22.04 is old in my eyes, mostly because a newer LTS was released after it.

You might define Ubuntu 22.04 as new, because it's still fully supported.

It's just a question of how you define modern/recent.

Which is why they said "modern" kernels. LTS systems are usually not going for modern. :)

I use the feedreader from within Thunderbird for RSS. But I just use it to track software releases. Not articles and such.

Calling them "Top Apps" does not indicate new apps.

I find a lot of such lists useless in any case, since it really depends on your needs.

My top 5 linux apps are probably something like:

  1. Firefox
  2. Kate
  3. git
  4. Steam
  5. ls

The list in the video should have been, "Here's 5 maybe interesting apps for Linux".

Have you considered the cheaper LFCS (Linux Foundation Certified Sysadmin) instead? It might be easier for the company to "swallow" and it's more general Linux instead of mainly Red Hat based. I took it this year and it's pretty standard System Administrator stuff.

I would probably suggest something based on LXQT or even XFCE for a device with only an N100 at it's core. That CPU is the bottleneck of the device.

I'm in the same boat as you. My server runs 24/7, because I have some services that require close to 100% uptime to function correctly.

My UPS works fine though, and I wouldn't go without it these days. Just because the damage an improper shutdown can cause on data.
