Computing world will be a darker place without him. I wish HN crowd and tech enthusiasts stop worshiping latest Apple and Google products and teach others to use free software.
Only GNOME supports clipboard sharing with guests, because GNOME unifies X11 and Wayland clipboards in the compositor. None of the other Wayland DEs are supporting it since it requires special handling in their respective compositors.
No awards for Mozilla? EFF should really award Mozilla for keeping up with web standards using their own browser engine instead of just being Chromium copycat.
I understand your decision. But still switching from one proprietary OS to another does not help in long run. There's no guarantee that Apple will not become another adtech company. Linux seems to be the long term fix for all of us.
I'm following the same workflow. I use a Linux host and then a Linux guest with OpenGL acceleration on virt-manager. I do all my development and browsing inside the VM. I do not trust any of the npm packages or PIP packages. Any personal stuff like banking, password manager, Nextcloud goes on the host.
With modern virtio interfaces for network, disk and graphics practically giving near metal performance, there's no reason to not utilize VMs for development.
Indian government want to increase security by preventing "sideloading" of the apps in smartphones. Which really means, "You cannot run a program on your own device bought with your own money without getting it signed by Apple or Google because that is bad for cybersecurity."
They also want apps to check for root permissions to prevent running on rooted phones. There are also mentions of obfuscation of the binaries to increase security.
The title is right according to the proposed rules. Indian government doesn't want their people to run programs they would want to on their own device bought with their own money, without getting it signed by Google/Apple.
Either the government is fooled by the word "sideloading" which truly means "freedom to run any code" but madeup in such a way that it means bypassing security of Android and iOS or the government doesn't like the fact that they cannot ban apps directly downloaded from web.
Indian government's rules are always "one step forward, ten steps backward"!
