Would love to see if the "advocates" are capable of speaking about
technology. Elsewhere I noted, about choice, that my view is desktop Linux
offers little of it: you have a bunch of distros all tied to the same
ecosystem that offers very little choice. I can show workflows and products
which demonstrate this:
...
On Linux the way I think most would do it is save the file as PDF to their
recipes folder, then dig down to it and open it (or save and open it on
their desktop and move it to their recipes folder later), then edit it, then
save it, then attach it to an email.

Really comes down to I challenged the "advocates" to see if their tool with
so much "choice" could do a few tasks I find easy to do elsewhere.
And they ran off screaming and leaving insults in their wake.
The only even close attempt has been from Owl who has to make system wide
scripts tied to system wide hot keys to even attempt to look like he can do
these things in a streamlined way.
