@eloy Efforts like this in the 80s were individual efforts, not organizationally driven. Individual on campuses today are still working to build a better world. And individuals on campuses are moving away from the MS stack (not me, mind you). But to make that change on an organizational level is a challenge of a different kind and order.

or we could say now that the organizational level overpower the individual one. Universities are gigantic structures sometimes for good reason and most of the time bad ones.

@dkf@cyberplace.social @eloy@hsnl.social there is no outlook app for linux, and for android, it requests admin access to my device before i can use it, so i removed the account, but it's stuck thinking it's still added so for 2fa i have to always select "text me" otherwise it tries to send a message to my nonexistant phone
tldr it's a clusterfuck and postfix + roundcube + gnumail are better -
@gelatin@social.translunar.academy @eloy@hsnl.social the evil new one (i think you can get the old old one by removing a known browser from the user agent, i don't remember if that still works and i don't remember if it was for the personal one or business(?) one)

@eloy this one dropped several classes that used some kind of "test browser" that had zero Linux support. Several professors would say "it's ok, I give paper tests", some were bamboozled.
The bamboozlement is mostly from a handful of departments. You'd never guess which

@edbilodeau @eloy not necessarily, and there has been efforts trying to be all-encompassing. For an example, I like to cite https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Project

@edbilodeau With you on this one. It's one thing to do something individually or as a small group; that's often quite doable. It's quite another matter to do it for thousands of people, or worse yet *convince* someone else (who doesn't really want to do it, sees it as introducing risk, etc.) to do it for potentially thousands of people.

@eloy @edbilodeau As someone who has made his career in higher ed, this is very true. It's not impossible, just very hard. Change is more effective when it's organic rather than top down.
