I am going to ask if I may use linux for work. We are using windows but there is nothing that couldn’t be done on linux. Privately, I am mainly a fedora user but I’d be happy with any OS and DE or wm. What do I need to look out for when I suggest an OS? What does a computer/ linux/DE need in order to be ready for enterprise workstation? Will I only have a user and no sudo rights? May I install all flatpak apps? Does the admin have to be able to remote ssh?

    I don’t think that that’s true. At least not more than for any other community maintained packages.

      Debain is community maintained packages and they’ve done signed manifests on all packages, required by default, since like 2002.

      Flapak and snap are terribly insecure compared to standard distro package managers

        What? No! Flatpak and Snap are the new trendy toys! How dare you criticize them!
