  • To answer your questions in my experience with my SB2:

    • was it a hassle? You could call it hassle, I had to figure some stuff out, as I was very new to Linux. But I enjoyed the journey and learned some stuff along the way.
    • I miss no functionalities. The camera looks a bit low quality, but I never use it, so it’s fine for me. Of course the software choice is a bit smaller than on windows, but I always found a way with available open source software. Now I prefer my solutions to the point where I think of windows software way to constrained for my workflows.
    • pen works good. Thick, thin, eraser, … Try it with krita or xournal++ (maybe a bit of configuration necessary, I don’t remember)
    • I wouldn’t count on a camera fix soon. Microsoft apperently uses very weird camera modules.

    I wish I could go to university again, with my emacs/org-mode/org-roam setup I would document the crap out of those classes.













  • Totally different for me:

    • NC-calendar syncs two different calendars (work and private) accross all my devices.
    • NC Photos with Memories organizes 2 TB of photos and has all the functions Immich has.
    • NC Password Manager syncs my Passwords
    • I share big files with my clients via NC and photo albums to friends and family.
    • NC syncs and organizes different Input-folders for my paperless-ngx-server.
    • I update NC with a small script, works every time

    So it replaces at least 5 different Programs. And it’s 80 % private use, 20 % for my business. Not too big, not too clunky, just the right tool.
