Also I really really hope that most of the compatibility issues with #LibreOffice and M$ Office have been resolved by now. Documents and Powerpoints were frequently corrupted, Excel macros didn't work. That was the dagger that made users revolt.

That is not to say that everything was bad. Users liked working with #LinuxMint (still my fav distro), #RocketChat and #NextCloud were popular as well. Zimbra as a mailserver was ok, there were a few complaints about the scheduling tool. #Jitsi worked well, at times. I'm trying to remember the other apps that we used.

We had in-house servers with I believe #Proxmox and #Ubuntu vm's on top, managed by #Ansible. That all worked really well. One or 2 Windows VM's for legacy apps.

@AAMfP @libreoffice True, and it's unfair to blame LibreOffice. It sucks that most of the world still uses MS Office, those documents would often become unusable.

@zash See then we could have easily handled 30.000 users.

When stuff worked, it was great! Those were my favorite 5 min a day.

But very often there were compatibility issues on the user side, unexpected bugs with zero support, exceptions had to be made for specific proprietary apps, users had to be constantly trained, management was a nightmare. I assume that a German state has enough resources to mitigate this, but yeah don't do this on your own. #foss #opensource

Yup, def can't get it to work 🥲 I'll need to configure it so that the steamdeck output is captured by my laptop and then the audio connects through there. But that requires another capture card. Sigh.. 💸💸💸

@matt You say it like I wouldn't immensely enjoy that 😁

@kris yeah but why is it so cheap??? It's not even that rural, it's like 45 min to Perpignan and an hour to Montpellier. Also right next to Narbonne. 30 min from the sea and next to a National Park. I'm just like ????

@vieveca Isn't every one taking everyone's job nowadays?

It's kinda bizarre how we're advocating for a world with closed borders and without free travel - as if people are supposed to only live, work and die in the area they were born while there's a whole world out there. It's ridiculous.

Not saying I know the solution to the worldwide housing crisis, but surely restricting moving abroad can't be the answer.

@masterbuck @vieveca I mean, that's what's happening to me in Amsterdam as well. I don't blame the expats looking for opportunities here 🤷🏼‍♀️

@vieveca @masterbuck in or out of what exactly? I don't understand your premise.

@Tarnport Would you happen to know what the weather is like there during winter?
