    Unofficial Microsoft Teams for Linux client

    This isn't me trying to convince you to use Linux, but the listed reasons (other than LLM testing) aren't real deterrents:

    > Acorn

    GIMP (or Glimpse, if you want a more modern UI) or Krita can definitely do pretty much anything Acorn can.

    > Keyboard Maestro

    GNOME and KDE have been able to do this out of the box from pretty much the beginning. The OSes are still mostly terminal-first (one of the big complaints, actually), and that translates into the DEs and Applications. A keyboard automation is just a sequence of commands.

    This is probably one of the few areas where Linux almost definitely beats macOS or Windows.

    > OnniGraffle

    There's a large swathe of diagramming tools in Linux. I can't speak on them directly.

    > Alfred App

    Yep, both KDE and Gnome are able to handle this task as well as Alfred. Like automation, this is probably an area Linux will be able to shine above macOS.

    > MS Office

    LibreOffice would be the common alternative.

    > MS Teams

    They used to have an official client. They now recommend you create a PWA, and there are some unofficial clients that do pretty much that:

    This seems to be the route they'll be going all around, similar to slack (web + an electron app).

    > I test LLMs locally.

    LLMs run fine on Linux, but you will be limited to about 16GB on the VRAM side. Though, you could technically use Asahi + Apple Silicon as the support matured if you want.

    Most of these are open source applications, with cludgy UIs/warts and all; and aren't really designed by teams with UX masters, so operate oddly and require relearning. But if you were interested in making the move, they're options.

  2. Civic Auth

  3. ScreenShield

    ScreenShield is an iOS library that provides a simple way to protect your app's content from being captured or recorded by screenshots, screen recordings, or other screen capture methods. It works by adding a secure layer on top of your views, which prevents most screen capture mechanisms from recording the underlying content.

    I'm not sure why you're being downvoted. You're 100% right. Android lets apps block screenshots with FLAG_SECURE, and iOS does too with https://github.com/JayantBadlani/ScreenShield, and neither one gives the owner of the phone a way to override that.

  4. libimobiledevice

    A cross-platform protocol library to communicate with iOS devices

    It seems to be actively maintained, so I would assume it still works:
