Is my client bugging or is this comment empty?

Whoa that’s cool! It works in Thunder!

They do in Thunder!

No worries! Thanks for mentioning it, I might check it out!

Syncthing Syncthing Syncthing works flawlessly /plugover :)

Do you know how this compares to Ditto?

System Informer is a nice, more modern take on Process Explorer. My favorite feature is the filter which supports RegEx and searches the process name, command args, path, etc. Really nice for monitoring a few important processes.

7-zip

If you’re on Win 11, use NanaZip. It’s a fork with better integration with Windows 11’s crappy conext menu.

Caffeine

If you have PowerToys this is built in now.

AnyDesk has started enshitifying too but it’s still better than TeamViewer.

What? This just isn’t true? I RDP into work all time and it picks up my user session with all open apps from the last time I was physically at the machine. Then next time I’m at the machine, it picks up the session from last time I remoted in. In other words, as long as you always use the same account, it’s always the same session.

Your activity also can’t be viewed by a user on the remote system

You are right this, but this is actually a benefit in my opinion. The last thing I want is for someone to turn on my monitor and see everything I’m doing. I like that it’s a private session of sorts.

Also RDP is better at adapting resolutions (I want my session to use my local monitors’ resolution, not the remote one) and forwarding system key shortcuts than any other remote solution I’ve used.

A Roku stick requires the Roku streaming service to be functioning to be useful.

That’s not true at all. You could use a Roku with only Plex/Jellyfin and it would be immensely useful.

I see it more like the browser group wanted it to be a ‘real’ browser and not held down by having to be compliant with the hobby OS. But that’s just my reading from the outside. :)

They mentioned being more open to OSS packages, which probably wouldn’t work on Serenity.

Don’t fret, I think a lot of us are on a long-term journey to de-Google. I’ve actually found that changing browsers is one of the easiest things to do, especially with the ability to import your bookmarks and such. With Firefox Sync, you pretty much have the same functionality as you would with your Google account signed into Chrome.
