@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social my company was considering a mandate for company computers for all work (new thing).
i agreed, and sent a link to the #framework 13 and said I’d run debian on it.
to my surprise I got approval from both my manager and IT!
it goes to show… if you don’t ask, you won’t get what you want (you’ll get windows).

Recently, I applied for a job.
The interviewer stated that “no new computers running Windows would be bought and you could choose Linux, if you want”.
Very cool - still, I didn’t get the job.

In many cases the default is chosen because the people placing the order don’t know any better. An educated staff can help them make better choices.
