  • I am the IT department, but have had mostly good experiences with FOSS stuff, although you do need to vet the licensing: Not all licenses will allow for a company or institution to use it.

    Also, you need to make sure it will work reliably, doesn’t pose any security risks, etc. but that should always be SOP for any software FOSS or proprietary, free or paid. If a tech department isn’t vetting stuff, then they’ve already fucked up before deploying anything.

    FOSS isn’t necessarily bad in an enterprise environment though, sometimes it’s even the best possible option (most web servers run some version of Linux, for example).



  • It depends on how the app you were using was written. If it was written correctly, it’ll work, if not, blame the company that made it (especially when it’s Microsoft themselves!).

    Power Toys has a feature that will force it to work in every app, I highly recommend it! There’s all sorts of helpful features in Power Toys.



  • I can believe it: Stuff like this is not very well advertised to users so tons of useful shortcuts go unused regularly.

    Bonus hotkeys:

    WIN + X will also bring up a more helpful menu and allow you to do things like shut down, restart, sleep the computer using only a few keystrokes instead of clicking around.

    WIN + right or left arrow will snap the screen to one side or the other, WIN + up maximizes, WIN + down will minimize
