  • To be honest, not.

    1. my employer gives apple mobiles out
    2. anything usefull can’t be done on those small screens
    3. screens that are large enough to show anything useful aren’t portable
    4. when I’m out of the office/not working from home, I’m not available for work, so I don’t need to use android for productivity

    Privately, I have an email client for emergencies (used aqua, but with the subscription junk now introduced, looking for a good FOSS alternative) and a calendar which I need to check more. That’s about it peoductivity wise.




  • That would be really annoying (when I would use sound)

    On the other hand, the Nvidia card I use refuses to work via the external monitor (USB-C) at power on when plugged in. Power on, then plug in, then I have screen… weird.

    • Apple: We support apple hardware
    • Microsoft: We support hardware from this list
    • Linux: You want support, write it yourself.
    • Nvidia: You want support, use windows
    • Laptop developers: You want performance, oh, you’re a gamer, here have a Nvidia card.

    You might ask, why a laptop: power consumption for the moments I don’t need power. I don’t want QHD on 17", 24" is better for my aging eyes so external monitor is a requirement. (previous one had 4K on 15", cheapest screen option to buy)
