If you want something like Mac, use elementary os.
If libre/open office isn’t your thing, there’s always cloud based ones like office365 and google docs.
I also found this. Never heard of some of these things, so I can’t really recommend them.

You can also use ms word in wine if you’re writing. However; if you’re opening docs from the internet, I wouldn’t recommend opening them up in anything running in wine. Remember, wine is a windows emulator based on windows 2000.
Good find! I want to test this out this weekend :)
Look for something that can do rtsp streaming. Reolink, amcrest, ect. Its all cheap Chinese cameras that almost definitely dial out to some Chinese server.
What I do is have all cameras connected on a wireless router with no internet, use zoneminder on a Linux that is connected to my home network via Ethernet and the camera network via WiFi, and allow https into my home network from my VPN
But the add-on isn’t sandboxed like in chrome. Like i remember, depending on if you use an external MAC like apparmor or not, where if you’re runnimg in Linux and you’re using Firefox, websites could steal your ssh keys from ~/.ssh/
Malicious addons or websites could easily do the same thing, and steal your bitwarden credentials. Unless you have the premium version, you can’t put otp on it.

My biggest problem is the security and sandboxing around Firefox. I use both, but I feel my passwords are safer in Chrome tbh
In the realm of firewall applications, i use the following: ° Ipfire is easy to use, but lacks ipv6 support and it doesn’t have otp. It has lots of packages though.
° Alpine is good, if you don’t want a GUI or want to spend time figuring out how to build a web ui (really good for beginners as its mostly xml)
° openwrt is good fit for low end hardware (SPARC or arm processors mostly) but also works on x86.
° opnsense - like pfsense, but more up to date. Has some quirks in it (like if you block both incoming and outgoing, but just want to allow 80/443, the rules look weird…like the direction you have to allow is in, but destination is 80/443. Very strange bug that isn’t in pfsense).
° hardenedbsd firewall - literally just opnsense but with hbsd’s fully patched kernel. No repo though.
That being said, you can make any distro a firewall, just use iptables/pf/ipfw/ipfilter rules through command line, and you can add anything in that distros repo you can think of.
Personally, I’d advise to use opnsense over pfsense. Opnsense kernels are more up to date, and the devs are less toxic.
Ipfire is a Linux alternative that is easy to use, just no otp.

The word you’re looking for is steganography
Grsecurity stopped providing their kernel patches for free years ago. The alpine grsec patches are years old – like before spectre/meltdown. Don’t use them. Just use hardenedbsd/netbsd/openbsd.
I’ve got a t620, and am using it as a firewall. It has aes-ni so I can generate certs. Plus it has a pcie slot, so I threw a nic in there. Its powerful for around the same price as a raspberry pi is going these days. I think I got it for about $80 plus $10 or $15 for the nic.
Just always browse incognito/private. I haven’t gotten hit yet. I strive for a leave no cookies behind type browser.

I mean, if I buy a game on steam and valve goes belly up, how do I retain my games? Game companies were all too eager to stop selling physical discs for PC games and instead give you a code for you to redeem. And you can’t sell it after you play it like with console games, because it goes against most PC game companies’ terms of service (edit - …to sell your account)
If you buy a security camera that is only available through the cloud and the company stops paying for the cloud service, all you have is a paper weight
Just another reminder that you don’t own anything digital - companies do. Forgo these cheap cloud products, use hardware that you can control
Me running on lxde using 512mb: 😎
I think the main reason Firefox isn’t on there is because redox os doesn’t use Wayland and x11. Porting firefox would be a massive effort unfortunately.
