Gibt es eigentlich eine #foss-Alternative zu #Untis, die auch für größere Schulen und als #multiuser/#dantebank laufen lassen kann?

As a long time #KDE #plasma6 / #kde_plasma user I have to say things just become worse and worse and I blame the #singleuser #development syndrome, where developers think there will always be one singe user logged in to a system at one time on a #multiuser system as #Linux
On my #laptop that I'm the only user Plasma6 works fine, but on a desktop computer which I share, things are completely different , plasmashell keeps on crashing or freezing (the panel becomes just a grey empty entity) and when switching between users, the audio is missing and the whole desktop freezes until plasma finds the audio device and reattached it, which happens like a minute after you have switched.

Another example is ksnip which don't handle multiple users at all, it seems that the first user who starts it will be the one running it, but the second user then can control the first users ksnip session.

The only reasons I still use plasma are the following

- #kwin is the only window manager I have found that allows me to disable all shortcuts for a specific app, this is so valuable when run a virtual machine, as you want all shortcuts to be for that instance than your own host.

- window manager that allows me to have close button on the left side of the title bar and the minimize/maximize on the right side.

- in window dialog the OK come to left of Cancel (yeah more of a #qt thing)

- Uses qt

- dont' use #CSD (this just makes everyone to use their own look for the window title and suddenly you have the messed up look from #microsoft instead of the uniformed look)

I have tried #lxqt but something causes the title bar to kwin to be twice as big as running with the same settings in plasma and it's not as keen on using kwallet where all my passwords are stored.

All Samsung software everywhere to use One UI brand from 2025

Fuck Samsung and their removal of multiple users from Android.

By the way. When I say multiple users, I'm not talking about multiple people using one device. I'm talking about one person creating two or three separate user spaces (android calls it multiple users, but it's kind of a misnomer)

If #Linux would have a #wayland compatible #multiuser #RemoteDesktop solution it would change the whole world.
But sadly when they deprecated #x11 they didn't seem this was a good idea.
I believe in companies this would open so many new doors. So sad that this *modern* #wayland still sucks in some areas.

Idea - Google apps with sandboxed login on Android (for example, sign into Gmail, but check a box preventing the system from logging in to all the other apps like Google photos, for example).

abstract / draft / concept - Another Google app that could benefit from a "sandboxed login, separated / segregated from other Google apps" on android might be Gemini.

fictional observer: why?

Me: why? Well, because multiple user profiles

fo: multiple user profiles?

Me: yeah. Like on my android phone, I have a "main profile" and then I log out of that some times and login to a profile that's more designed for like, it's like an "alt user account" where things like ...

Fo: what

Me: I don't really want to say exactly

Fo: why

Me: because I don't want the narrative to sound dumb

Fo: is there a way you can explain why you want to discuss multiple user profiles and sound more legit ?

Me: sure. Ok. I'll give an example. Let's say a person has their work user account as a separate / segregated user account separated from their more personal user account etc...

Fo: ok that's reasonable right?

Me: yeah. Ok. So let's say that's the case, which is similar to my case, just not exactly.

Fo : ok

Me: so, yeah, one might want to be able to login to a *few* Google services from their "work" profile and vice versa, while not having android/ChromeOS auto login to all the other Google apps. So far, the three top apps that I'd want an ability to login "without signing in to other Google apps" would be:

1. Google chat
2. Gmail
3. Gemini

Google chat I used to communicate with family. That is the most important to me. It's like a web based sms replacement that's better than sms and email in multiple ways. It's got an edit button that works forever so users can completely control their digital footprint. Unlike emails and SMS which set everything in stone. Even then 15 minutes RCS gives is the same as no edit button. Any edit button that doesn't work forever is not worth it.

Fo: ok. But nobody uses multiple profiles except you.

Me: is that true?

Fo: I don't know.

Me: well, can you be more on my side and help me to make it so that I'm not the only one?

Fo: well you might not be the only one. But you may be, I'd assume, for lack of public data on this situation, let's say like 10 percent of people use multiple user profiles on phones.

Me: 10 percent is good. That's enough to be like “a thing”.

Fo: a thing?

Me: yeah like, growing up, I think i read that 10 percent of the population was xyz

Fo: xyz?

Me: I'm not gonna get into it, if that's ok

Fo: um…ok?

Me: let's just say, the xyz people, 10 percent is a pretty big number when you think what is 10 percent of 8 billion people. 800 million. So I'm gonna say 800 million people use multiple user profiles. And even if it *was* “only” half of that, that's still 400 million. That's bigger than the population of some of the top ten countries on earth. So, multiple user profiles, and safeguards for properly segregating/separating data between those profiles and allowing people to sign in to Google apps in a sandboxed manner that doesn't automatically log them into Google photos, for example, which could potentially be more…

Fo: what

Me: potentially like, …

Fo: what

Me: just like, I want the ability for certain Google apps to not automatically login across the system. This could be like and android15 feature. I guess they themselves (Google) don't have to market it, but, once it's live, once the feature/function is live, I think it would speak for itself and people would use it and show it off on social media/Twitter/ etc like how apple didn't advertise the Apple pencil shadow effect, but they made it anyway, and then social media channels highlighted the coolness of the function. Just like this security function could be a pretty cool solution to an ongoing issue with Android and Google apps.

Fo: ok.

Me: I mean, I think it kinda deserves more than just an “ok”.

Fo: well, what do you want me to say

Me: just, I don't know right now. I'm going to post this on mastodon, maybe blogger etc… hopefully enough folks will see it and agree with it and hopefully it will happen. Hopefully sooner rather than later.

"Apple needs to explain that bug that resurfaced deleted photos / When you delete a photo, you expect it to be gone for good."

draft - Even though they fixed it, they still need to implement multiple user profiles in iOS for complete data segregation.

Fyi, pixel phones have multiple user profiles, while iPhones and samsung do not. For that reason, I can only recommend the pixel8.

"iPhone owners say the latest iOS update is resurfacing deleted nudes / iOS beta testers have also complained that old pictures returned."

theverge.com/2024/5/15/2415728

draft - Would it be ok if I type something to the effect of:

This is just one reason that iPhone / iOS needs or could at least "utilize" multiple user profiles. I chose pixel because yeah, I'm not married, and although chat / dating isn't a crime, I do appreciate the *complete* app / data separation that multiple user profiles allows me. And I'm sure apple could do a much better job with multiple user profiles. And to those who complain "iM nOt gOnNa LeT sOmEoNe eLsE uSe mY pHoNe" ... Take a f**kin chill pill: by multiple user profiles, I don't mean multiple users for one phone. I mean multiple profiles for *one* user. That's it. That way, it'd be impossible for weird/cringe/embarrassing stuff like this to occur, when people go to a designated*area* /user account of their phone to do their chat/dating/NSFW stuff. Is this kinda embarrassing for me to type about? Yeah, it f**kin is. But, if I don't type about it, who will? Nobody seems to care enough to type about it, but I'm sure people want this feature. It doesn't even have to be for chat/dating/NSFW etc...theres tons of other uses. One example is having a "no tracking mode" when you want to take a break from your insurance company's driver tracking app. Another example is parental controls / family mode so if you do have share it for a bit, then it can be in its own profile for that. Wanting the security, privacy and peace of mind that multiple user profiles offers should not be shamed. /Rant.

"Apple says these public revelations impeded its ability to "surprise and delight" with its latest products."

Innovate the ability to do multiple user profiles on iPhone and you'll "surprise and delight" many users, fans, customers, supporters, etc...

Post in thread 'Apple ID Could Be Rebranded to 'Apple Account' Later This Year'

"I have three Microsoft accounts (personal, work, and uni) it would be nice to have one identity with multiple accounts"

I have a similar setup. Google One allows me to share storage across my multiple accounts.

samsung is a disgrace to Android. They are an Android monopoly who took a big thing that makes Android great/fun/private etc -multiple user profiles -and they removed it. I wish we could get everyone to boycott all Samsung products until they add multiple user profiles to phones. People should buy pixel phones instead, which *do* have multiple user profiles

draft - I wish all Facebook users would quit Facebook and start using Google chat.

one issue though

Google should make/design a new SSO (single sign on) system that isn't tied specifically to Google services

random observer: why?

Me: because it's annoying that when I log in to Google chat, maybe I don't want that same account tied to Google photos potentially mixing data I don't want mixed.

Random observer: well who cares

Me: I care

Ro: well Google has their system

Me: yeah I know, I'm just saying if they want to innovate a little bit maybe, I actually like their system, I'm just thinking they could add this type of system specifically for fringe case users like me

Ro: yeah that's what you are. You're a fringe case niche.

Me: ok but why not help out some fringe case niche users like myself

Ro: I dunno

Me: well. Meh. Brb

draft - Samsung is a monopoly that stifles innovation. Samsung deliberately withholds giving users the option to use multiple user profiles on Samsung phones, which is monopolistic. Samsung should be investigated and broken up.
