2. Be civil
- Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
- Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
- Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.

- These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.
- Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of
sudo
in Windows.
- No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts
- Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

This got me to convince my wife to switch to Linux again. She had the last Windows device in our household. She needed it for proprietary kitchen planners.
Now she's ranting about enshittification.
proprietary.... kitchen planners? wtf? wtf even is a kitchen planner?
That seems like the easiest thing to replace with something open source.

A kitchen planner is a program that lets you enter your room dimensions and then lets you fit kitchen cupboards, shelfs, cabinets and appliances in there. Ideally it comes with everything your supplier or contractor has on offer. Especially for colors and designs, but more importantly dimensions.
Luckily they are usually web based nowadays.
I totally misunderstood.
If possible you could have her try http://www.sweethome3d.com/
I like Sweet Home 3D. I'm slowly building my house's floor plan and laying out furniture using it. Just using it sporadically once every few weeks. It'll be done eventually.
I'm hoping to use it in Home Assistant with ha-floorplan (https://experiencelovelace.github.io/ha-floorplan/) so that I can have a floor plan with things overlaid on it (lights, temperature, etc) that you can tap to toggle.
Oh interesting! I was thinking of planning in the kitchen not planning for a kitchen build. That makes WAY more sense!
Have you not tried to run that software using proton?
Outside of games Wine still doesn't cut it for many programs. Plus this was before Proton.
I see 😁 I plan to test a lot of windows software if it runs on proton 😂 it’s more fun than gaming for me: getting stuff to work that I’ll never really need
Thank you for your service! o7
