  • In my experience, many business applications now run on the Web or are being upgraded to be. Where I work Windows pcs endure only for those who have to do technical drawing, most terminals are Ubuntu updated by ansible scripts and connected to an active directory domain running on Samba. The few PCs with Windows are slowly disappearing as hardware is upgraded ( medium-sized company with about sixty PCs ). There are also a couple of Mac’s used by in-house developers/IT.

We are in a self-hosting community and users must be helped to be autonomous, e-mail is a service that needs to be regained more than others, especially now that it is easier to manage and is for the most part hostage  of large companies that make their own interests at the expense of users.

    It was actually much more difficult to manage them many years ago when you had to invent by hand how to filter spam. Now with common standards supported by many pre-packaged solutions, everything is much simpler and accessible to the less experienced. Of course, I admit that it takes a minimum of experience to make a backup of a text file containing the mailboxes and this could definitely be the toughest challenge 🙄.
