Did my taxes via government website... And now I want to scream about #smartcard support on #Linux...
Why the hell login via identity card is so much pain every damn time?!?
@madargon Perhaps the page of your gov is somehow fu*ed up? Alone the smartcard support in linux works pretty well since few good years. No idea what can it be of the issue? I did mine back in Germany without any problems, and actually in Luxemburg as well. Their pages are very nice made and fully functional.
@MartinBe Maybe it is somehow related to their smartcard reader software, distributed via the same government sites. I remember how I laughed reading their manual, definitely wrote by someone who never saw Linux.
@madargon It is very possible, yes. If it is a pl gov website then everything is possible there. Or even more. Their system is totally messed up, non compliant or compatible with any of the common used, (open too) standards. They made an pretty heavy, unusable, unfriendly for the average person piece of junk. 🤦♀️🤮
@MartinBe Every service there, related to taxes, voting, some weird services using their "inbox" etc. are the same. Chain of weird redirections, sometimes with as suspicious addresses as real scam sites. And I dare you to use adblockers in browser...
