Regarding 2: That is actually part of my job. 95% Windows, the rest is MacOS and maybe 3 to 5 Linux users (myself excluded).

I wonder what must happen to roll out more Linux in the public sector. There is still software required by scientist of various professions that need a tool only available for Windows. Installing a VM is not an option; too complicated for the average user.

And there is Windows software not compatible with Windows 11. Here is a small chance to use wine, but will the setup be practical and installable by the users themselves? I doubt it and it will put more work on the admins.

I hope at least, that Linux maintenance will be smoother despite the need for compatibility for older Windows software in the future.

Did you just say, that popups are back? scream

Great advice!

One can dream about practical rollable or slidable displays so that it fits in my pocket. And no, I don’t look at foldables. The part where it gets folded just looks ugly.

For me the Palm Pixi was the peak expierence: small, touch friendly, hardware keyboard, relatively open OS, integrated headphone jack, wireless charging and very good battery live.

iPhone 13 mini user here; I can relate. Anything bigger than this is too big for me. I will use it until it breaks or security updates stop. After that I will have to see.

Older, smaller phones with PostmarketOS come to mind. But this OS is not ready for day-to-day-use, just yet.

Yes.
