Basically title. Do you know of any companies that use desktop Linux?
I can think of two in my area in Brisbane - Adfinis and Red Hat. Both have a pretty small presence here from what I last heard (several employees each).
My employer allows the Linux team to use Linux but it’s discouraged and our lives are made somewhat difficult.
When I was at Driver’s Village, a fairly large dealership in central New York, I noticed the salesman was using a computer with wallpaper that said Windows 11. This was before Windows 11 was even released. It was very obviously a Gnome desktop. I’m guessing IT just put the windows 11 background on it so the people using it wouldn’t complain that they didn’t know how to use Linux.
This is hilarious.
How well did it work?
The salesman I was dealing with seemed to have no trouble using it, but all he was doing was using a web browser and some database access.
What do you use for database access?
I didn’t work there. I was a customer. I didn’t know what they were using. I didn’t recognize the interface, I just barely know enough about databases to recognize that’s what he was doing.
