The only thing that drives me nuts on a regular basis is the lack of fully functional Microsoft apps. Specifically Teams and Outlook. Unfortunately I work with Microsoft shops constantly and need those two apps. Outlook PWA has issues and freezes constantly. Teams PWA just doesn’t do notifications.
That’s it.
But Windows blows and Macs are just too damned expensive.
I thought this looked like Bristol in Wisconsin. I can say it’s definitely NOT Phoenix…there’s actual trees in this pic. 🤣
I didn’t know that was an option! I’ve been running the Chrome extension to disable automatic gain. I have had better luck using Edge than Chrome for the PWA, and they have a flatpak to make it easier. The only thing I miss now is the multiple windows like you get on a Mac/Windows where the call doesn’t take over the chat window.
I use both. For most of the time I use AdGuard, with the same block lists I use in Pi-Hole. The reason for this is I can set it up on devices and use it everywhere, not just at home. This is very easy on both iOS and Android. I also have my home router setup to use AdGuard. My electricity provider has more small outages than I would like which caused issues when things tried to come back online.
I use my Pi-Hole for my VPN which has a dedicated IP address. So when I’m out of the house working I can use the VPN and still take advantage of the Pi-Hole.
I’ve run a Pi-Hole for years, and AdGuard for the past year or so. Honestly, I’ve had zero issues with AdGuard and it requires zero maintenance. The Pi-Hole I still have to update and apply patches, to Pi-Hole and the OS. It’s not a big deal, but AdGuard is set it and forget it.
Just my experience.
Agreed. The only time I use a wire is on Delta flights with seat back entertainment. I can’t stand wires, they drive me nuts. I’ve been using Bluetooth headphones since they came out and their flexibility is unmatched.
Running on a treadmill watching tv? Done. Watching a TV 20’ away so the sound doesn’t wake my wife? Done. Working at a Starbucks and being able to walk to the counter for an order? Done. Automatic start/stop and device switching? Done.
Yes they runs on batteries, but so does the rest of my life. Keeping things charged has never been an issue. I have over the ears with 24+ hours of battery life and in-ears with 6 hours. I have never had an issue with them being dead.
One reason I can see for a jack, maybe, is for audiophiles who run high end setups. But even those I think use a DAC and not the jack.
I’m not saying people don’t want the jack, I just don’t understand it. 🤷♂️
I’ll try Teams for Linux. Teams for Firefox does give notifications, but doesn’t support background pictures or screen sharing. Well, last I checked.
