For me, it was perhaps simple-scan, a very simple and efficient GUI to scan documents. I used it with my Brother printer / scanner and it works like a charm. Especially since I do not scan stuff often, so a program with more complex UI would have the effect that I forget how to use it until the next time.

      I opened Edge on a fresh install a couple days ago. The amount of things flashing and spinning and popping up trying to grab my attention actually gave me nausea.

      And I don’t mean (just) ads, I mean even the starting page with all the news, weather, random popups telling me things i can do with Edge, the dark patterns as soon as I searched for Firefox in Bing, and so on.

      The thought that there’s even a single human in the process of developing and maintaining that browser is incredible to me.

      But well, I suppose some people do enjoy it. Just beware it won’t be as fast on Linux as it is in Windows since it isn’t as thoroughly integrated into the OS.

        I honestly like it due to ehat it offerd and how it looks. And it’s kinda optimized. Once V3 rolls in thiugh, I am aiming at Floorp.

        Just switching to new OS and new browser seems kinda meh.

        I use Edge on my Ubuntu setup. Tried all the browsers that integrate with KeepassXC and Edge won. It’s the only browser that has a nice UI with tabs on a sidebar, decent performance, nice devtools and is not doing shady shit like Vivaldi.

            They add referral codes to your sessions on Amazon and a like. This way all your purchases are feeding their ref accounts.

            It’s not that bad practice if they’d do it as opt-in. I never consented to this and only figured out once when I looked at networking tab.
