  • Gui to manage firewall. which one? did you try firewalld or opensnitch?

    Which which one?

    I use firewalld regularly. Firewalld isn’t a GUI, and it’s a wrapper around Nftables and/or iptables depending on the distribution.

    I haven’t tried opensnitch.

    Desktop icons. you mean the specific icons of an other OS, or something else?

    Not having to use a Gnome extension to get desktop icons. 🙂 Although, other DEs aren’t much better.

    Not having to recompile out of tree kernel modules after a kernel upgrade. manually, or even automatically? if it’s the first, check out DKMS

    DKMS is setup, and I still have to plan my kernel upgrades due to the compilation time.





  • Support for auto cloud sync from vendors, or just auto cloud sync of setting between devices.

    DE stability. I keep a Mac around for times when Gnome is kind of broken.

    cmd shortcuts which don’t interfere with app shortcuts.

    Powerful desktop Arm chips.

    Gui to manage services.

    Gui to manage firewall.

    Easy fleet management tools.

    A real terminal services and Remote Desktop solution.

    Desktop icons.

    Tighter userland security.

    Tighter OS security. Mostly dm-verify and fs-verify.

    Tiling support. (There are extensions, but I need to experiment.)

    Not having to recompile out of tree kernel modules after a kernel upgrade.

    Base and extras being cleanly separated.
