They are not mutually exclusive. You can point OneDrive at any folder.
Windows has always failed to include a libre software license text file. We have never controlled it, anti-libre software.
Might be easier to print everything out and buy a filling cabinet
As long as I keep my printer ink subscription current, this works great.
I just inject.. feels good man!
Since they revealed the start menu is a JavaScript app, I wouldn’t be surprised if every other app is also revealed to be a web browser in disguise…
If Windows 11 is ported to JavaScript, it would really help with their whole OS as a cloud service thing. I'll enjoy watching that. From a distance.
Software controlled by a 3rd party is an agent of that 3rd party.
Wait, people have one drive installed?
Yea I've found that if you take the experiences you have on Lemmy and then just invert it, then it will give you a more accurate estimation of reality.
That explains why Kamala lost.
This is gold, Jerry. GOLD
Yea. I use it daily so I can share files between my PCs without any thought.
If you (or anyone reading this) are ever looking to decloud, you can set up Syncthing in a OneDrive-like setup
Create a Syncthing share between your computers at
%userprofile%\Syncthing
C:\Users\Joe\Syncthing
and verify the share works between windows systems.
Create the shared system folders in it:
%userprofile%\Syncthing[library folder]
C:\Users\Joe\Syncthing\Desktop
C:\Users\Joe\Syncthing\Documents
C:\Users\Joe\Syncthing\Pictures
Open explorer, go to [My Computer/This PC], right-click on the appropriate system folder (Windows has system folders for: 3D Objects, Desktop, Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures, Videos), go to Properties (under 'more' for Win11), select Location, and either manually enter or use the move button to select the new location. On pressing apply, you can also use the prompt to move the folder contents between locations (yes on the first PC, but manual for others if you might clobber files)
You can use Samba, its built into windows to locally share a file to another conputer ovet LAN
I never really had an issue with OneDrive, it was always better than Google Drive and those are about the only two that offer decent support for things like Excel if I for some reason need to do a quick edit I can do it in the browser and otherwise I can just use the desktop applications.
Luckly there is a way to get OneDrive on Linux, heck pretty sure you can still mount the thing as a network drive if you really want to.
Windows is just crap with their BitLocker being default, needing an account AND making it really hard to remove secondairy or tertiary accounts that you might have used for something somewhere.
I switched to Linux mint and the only things I miss is that LibreOffice is just missing some features compared to MSOffice and that Proton doesn't have a desktop app for Linux. I don't even care that I lose some performance because of my Nvidia GPU.
@weird Same here, and although Linux is my daily driver, I do have a Windows VM and a dual boot that I use for gaming, but on those I create my accounts without a Microsoft account by removing the network connectivity first, and then if they get one drive installed anyway, I de-install it.
Well, at least it's not ChromeOS. Yet.
