Let me expand on what rproffitt said, by explaining why. If a webpage could run a program installed on another computer, the entire world wide web would be hacked into tiny pieces and cease to exist. No one would ever use the web, it would be so totally insecure. So web pages are prohibited from running programs on your computer. They can …

The last time I used Windows was Windows XP when I got a blue screen of death trying to install it. Since then, I have been daily driving with Linux (Ubuntu then Pop! then back to Ubuntu) since then.

Linux has come a long way, but it's still primarily a server OS, correct? How many of you linux fanboys and girls use it as your primary operating system for daily tasks? How does it compare to Windows or macOS in terms of productivity and overall user experience?

I used Linux on and off for years. I was finally willing to commit to Windows 11 when it installed some updates and it went into a reboot loop afterwards. I said screw it and went back to Linux. Been using it for months as my primary OS and I am quite happy with the decision.

I started this thread thinking about James, DaniWeb's sysadmin, who I was surprised to hear uses Windows as his daily driver, despite his proficiency in Linux. I believe he quoted things like Linux not being ideal for gaming. I'm macOS only these days.

I exclusively use Linux on my personal PCs, currently the Ubuntu distribution. I switched from Windows between 2010 and 2012. Before that, I used Linux on a different PC for several years, followed by a period of dual booting. Thanks to WINE, I have yet to encounter software I cannot run on my PC. I believe Ubuntu has become so user-friendly that …

When I ran into problems with linux I found the online help was less than helpful. The help, when offered, consisted of experts explaining things to other experts, even though I mentioned that I was anything but. All help assumed I had much more knowledge than I did. The explanations sounded like Trek techno-babble.

I see pritaeas has answered so I'll move to the next stage of the discussion which is to ask what you need in your web site. For example there is an "online notepad" which does some basic notepad work. And there are many screensavers that run from a webpage with an example at whitescreen.online . You can get there.

I have always been a fan of the Office 2000 shortcut bar. It has been on my windows desktop since I got it, up until Windows 10 19H2 (RIP). If you are still looking for a replacement, try searching for "Quick Pick" by "Automation in Motion". Use the double quotes or you will have to wade through many pages of irrelevant results.

I stick with Windows because of long familiarity at the office. After years of networking/sysadmin and dbadmin I just had too much invested in MS. Too bad OS/2 died.
