Linux Apps I Use At Work - Chris Titus Tech Linux Apps I Use At Work This video will go over all the applications I use on my Work PC. I go over my email, file browser, and many other features. As a life long Windows user, I was able to optimize my workflow once I moved to Linux and pick up a lot of productivity. The idea for this video came from the Linux Experiment and after watching his video I realized that my workflow was completely different and learned some valuable things from that video. I encourage you to check out that video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DeLkPS4hsnw

As an it guy myself there is (almost) nothing I hate more than the desktop version of outlook. It's always been a hideous, slow, sometimes overtly dangerous, broken piece of shit. The thing I hate more than outlook is exchange, they can't even get that to work right themselves in their cloud offerings. It often takes MINUTES to get mail on exchange online, just dump that shit, if you don't want to host it yourself (and I don't blame you) just use google, their stuff actually works.

I'm so tired of the Thunderbird love... I tried it for a few years and it was ok, but... 1.) It was more of a mess handling multiple E-Mail accounts. 2.) I hated not being able to export E-Mail to a .PST so that I could have a common format to store my favorite E-Mails in.
.PST Import is nice... but you also need .PST export... NOT having it kind of breaks a foundation of the Open Source Movement... the FREEDOM to CHOOSE.

Title: Linux Apps I Use At Work
Me: Came to see how he uses it for work.
Chris: Spends several minutes talking about his minecraft server.
Also Chris: I am a windows admin, here is 5 minutes on how to use ssh and scp.
Aside from that, great video. I also use the web-based O365 (outlook, teams, word, onedrive, etc..) and came looking for some tips on making the experience a little better and more seamless.

maybe i'm dumb or something... but I can't for the life of me, get that IP-thing to work in my FSTab. Would be really great if you made a video about setting that up, from both computers involved standpoint.
found you're video on RSync, but this only has the -write this in FSTab--section of the story.

Try Ice ssb it handles web apps as individual windows with a slimed down browser that doesn't effect your normal browser. I use it for my email. Basically it allows for you to have programs appear in your menu that are web sites like YouTube and Proton mail that act as web apps.

You're a little narcistic but your videos have helped me a lot to set my linuxes to my liking, also thanks to you I've succesfully migrated my page to a google cloud machine....so keep talking and keep those videos coming :)

Don't do -sudo nano-. Use sudoedit. This will allow you to save as a super user but not run your text editor as a super user. This is especially important for any text editors that can launch arbitrary shell commands.

I'm no IT but kind of doing the same thing you're doing. Windows at work daytime, linux at home night time. Gotta learn that auto mapping script for fstab for my server and network drive. So much to learn.

OWA >> Outlook :D I use an 'app mode' window with a hotkey to bring it up straight without the browser ribbon. (Google Calendar and several other web-based apps can be done similarly.)

Thank you for the video. Super helpful for my transition to Linux workstation. The only key piece I am missing now is a VPN client. Any suggestions? Thank you in advance!
