1·27 days agoMotorola Solutions != Motorola Mobility
Motorola Mobility is Lenovo and since 2014 they have nothing to do with each other apart from the branding.
4·3 months agoYou’re mostly right, but I disagree about the bit about paid software and vetted developers. Open source like Linux is also mostly developed by programmers hired by companies, so there’s no difference there. Proprietary software has also had problems with malicious developers and there’s less transparency there.
Desktop Linux so far was meant to be a fun general purpose computing experience for geeks. Throwing extra security layers on it evidently spoils some of that fun, you can see how Linux nerds react to things like Polkit, SELinux, Wayland or Flatpak. But PCs in general suck at security, they’re based on legacy tech from an era when cybersecurity wasn’t even a concept.
Huh, I’ve been following “This Week in GNOME”, didn’t realise KDE is doing the same thing. Thanks for sharing, I’m gonna follow both, it’s nice to see progress in Linux desktop, even if it’s not my personal choice of software.
Any examples?
