5 Things LINUX MINT Objectively Does Better Than WINDOWS 11
  • This is all fine for some, but i am happy with most personalization options provided by windows 10. The only thing missing is the ability to close window by middle clicking on its taskbar item (common, we can already close browser tabs this way, it's common sense). In window i use a taskbar tweaker app and i wasn't able to find a similar setting for Linux.

    Probably even more annoying is how linux desktop hijacks most hot keys. I use Pycharm and couldn't use any key combinations that involve ALT key because somehow Ubuntu thought that key should be dedicated to moving the window. I eas not able to find a place to disable it. This was back in (or before) 2018. I haven't really tried linux as a daily driver since then.

  • do you turn on read reciepts in your messaging apps?
  • I don't need to know if message was read so i disable it for my own privacy.

    Besides, I think they're pointless in my case. I usually read the message in the notification and reply or dismiss it without opening the app, and the apps usually don't record these interactions as "read".

  • What's some really unpopular opinion you have?
  • Private landlords are not as bad. If everyone had only one house there'd be nowhere to rent unless you only want to rent the room.

    Now corporate landlords. They own so much real estate it's practically a monopoly. And as a business they're profit driven and exploit their tenants. I think renting wasn't so bad before companies started investing in real estate.

  • Is it still necessary to use _ while naming files?
  • I'd rather use snake_case for file names in Linux that way you don't have to press shift until the end of the first word, and byt that time you probably have enough characters for tab completion.

  • How much control/access does my instance owner haver over my account?
  • An instance owner having access to the database can surely change the password to access the account and then change it back. If you're the server owner, you can do anything you want directly on the database.
