Intro
Why is Randy using 3 operating systems in the office?
Do I think it’s possible to go all open source?
- Yes
- There is a challenge to it
- For example, I’m a very big fan of OneNote. I can’t see myself giving it up yet. There are Open Source alternatives out there that would probably be good enough for most people.
- https://alternativeto.net/software/joplin/ – Joplin – https://joplinapp.org/
- It’s a very solid app with a great interface and is easy to read.
- CherryTree – although, I’d say it has a little bit of a learning curve, it’s still great because the documentation is excellent. https://giuspen.com/cherrytreemanual/

Segue: Coming up on the Manly Hanley Podcast . . .
Current Setup and Why I’m doing it this way
- 2 computers – 3 Operating Systems
- Old desktop computer running Linux Mint. I’m using this as my “main system” as far as surfing the internet goes and I like to think of it as my learning/growing machine – Sort of forcing myself to dive in a bit.
- My the computer is that iMac that I’ve been talking about for the last few months. Now that I’ve used MacOS as my main driver for the last two months – I feel I can confidently say that I think Windows 10 and Linux desktops are better. Yes, there are Mac-specific apps that are indisputably good, but this goes for every operating system.
I’d like to thank you for putting time aside to listen to the podcast.
