I’m trying to un-corporatize my life as much as possible. I’m a freelancer and I really like the idea of Linux. For simple things like email, zoom meetings, spreadsheets and invoices, I’ve got it and I love it.
But when I start trying to do networking stuff I know how to do on my Mac is where things start to fall apart.
I have yet to attempt video editing on Linux, but I’m running it on an old laptop my friend was going to throw out so it wouldn’t really be a fair test.
I like Linux in general and I really like the idea of Linux, but this is one of my biggest gripes about Linux, and FOSS overall. They have all these instructions on how you can do this step or that task, but there are never examples that tie it together into a cohesive solution. This is fine if you have a good grasp of how everything works and just need pointers on specific command syntax or usage, but if you only have a general idea about what you want to do, there is nothing out there to give you an idea of how to get started.
Yeah I’m going to wait a while to fully transition. I need a hardware upgrade soon. I may just get a new (used) Mac, wipe my current one and start over with a fresh Linux install on that. 🤷♂️
I think SSHFS would work for your case as well. You’d have to enable SSH on your Mac to do it.
This is all off-topic for a Linux hate CJ so feel free to message me if you want more details.
Haha ok thanks :)
