Mark, is that you?

You all guys simply don’t understand the idea. The idea to not have two or ten password managers. The idea is for the website being compromised, TOTP password won’t compromise the algorithm. Having just one password, stealing it, poof. Having them two, big difference. That’s the idea. They are different. Yes, many sites and services fuck up that by, say, sending them both to your email or something like that. But putting your TOTP into your password manager does not change much into the worse. Not issuing that 2nd password is what makes you less secure.

Thanks, I’ve been willing to buy one when they were hyped some time ago (a decade or something), but changed my mind. Never regretted. Got yourself a nice password manager, that’s plenty.

My password manager supports both, passwords and 2FA. It’s still convenient, and secure too.

By the way, having two accounts is not allowed, so we banned both accounts for violating EULA.

Why did you mix lowercase and uppercase? Are you aware you may need to read the password to a bank manager? Keep it short and simple.

Unfortunately, that page does not explain much. So many meaningless comments. As usually with that garbage site.

Yes, but 2FA is usually another app, not email. Or even if it’s the same app being in your very password manager, it gets the second password from the algorithm. So if you steal my password, you can login. But stealing these 6 numbers that work for just 30 seconds is useless.

Oh, thanks! Now I see how the rabbity the hole is! NixOS alone would make it pretty deep …

Do you mind sharing the rabbit hole? I tried to search NASty too, but it looks like the result is mostly porno or other irrelevant shit.

Well, I guess everyone had their abusive relationships in their lives at least once. Those abused (used Windows, in this instance) are tend to fall into another abusive relationships, unfortunately. Until they work through their problems.

That said, I’m happy you’re better (and not on Windows, yay!) Now, I sincerely wish you to find a loving and caring partner—

Ok, on a serious note, I can believe you that Kubuntu can be fine too, but I don’t understand why, if you can use a system that respects you. Say, even Debian. Or any other one. On the other hand, if it works, why break it. But I won’t sincerely recommend that to anyone new these days. Go with CachyOS or Fedora or Pop_OS! instead.

Kubuntu gives me some 2000s vibes when I did try it too, off the disks they were sending me for free. (Thanks for that, Canonical.)

Save yourself some time and just use Fedora instead. I’m seriously surprised someone still tries Kubuntu in 2026, and that it’s still alive.

I still don’t get it why would I want it over Arch.

Edit: wow, so many great replies! Thank you guys!

Oh, I bet all of them would behave ‘I was just following the orders,’ including the führer himself. They would be not just ‘I was wrong,’ they would be the most Ukrainian-centric people, the most patriotic ones. You’ll see. Obviously, that wouldn’t be sincere, but hey, the door is open!

Why? Sincerely curious. I mean, he’d genuinely and naively spread all this Russian disinformation, or would be a sleeper agent of the enemy, especially if he had Latvian citizenship. Now he’s gone, or would be soon. What’s the problem? Why doesn’t he deserve all this? I think Ukrainian kids and the civilians overall do not deserve all this, but a creature like this deserves it all fair and square.

Well, not exactly the proper replacement, but you can try. I would be curious to learn how it went for you. For me, that worked (I barely touch iPad), for my wife didn’t, she uses iPad mostly.

Yeah, I shouldn’t have been lazy, and might write that ‘if you need to and files from one device to another, you may use LocalSend, which is similar to AirDrop, but does work only when you’re on the same network’ or something like that.

I won’t call it a bad advice, because I’ve been struggling without LocalDrop, as there’s no similar thing for Linux world. AirDrop is surely works better, you can send files just being on the street, connected to no WiFi. However, I had a number of issues with it for family usage, while LocalSend just works seamlessly between my Linux computers and iOS devices.

Yep, Syncthing is great, and I use it heavily. What I meant is that AirDrop is for sending files you select, from one device to another, so LocalSend just closer to that. As the sibling comment pointed out, AirDrop is more robust.

Hardly agree here. I’d try not even replace a MacBook, but provide an alternative calm laptop to, say, browse the internet at home. (For that, iPad often beats any laptop, however. Say, my wife doesn’t even have a laptop of her own, but she uses iPad all the time, and I don’t see how to change that.)

We migrated to Immich this summer, and I’m mostly happy with the transition. (We migrated off Google Photos, which we were using since day one. So that wasn’t an iCloud migration.)

Some things, like passwords: she uses the integrated one, that comes with iOS. I’m just having duplicates in my vault. (I use pass.) So, overall it’s not an easy fight, but I consider us a Linux household, since the primary devices — servers and desktops with laptops — are all Linux, with no macOS (so far), and iOS. We don’t have Apple Watches right now, but I think we may try them. I think you won’t be able to replace them with Androids. To me, Android phones are just unreliable (hardware wise), and software is just an ugly mess. I haven’t tried GrapheneOS yet, and Lineage OS was good the last time I tried, but it’s still a toy device in comparison to iOS, reliability wise, not feature wise. I don’t see them as a replacement to an iPhone, they’re just a different league. For myself, I see Android phone (with Lineage OS) as a second phone only: and only till the moment a true Linux phone would replace it.
