The Internet is so important that for daily computer usage I, and probably everyone else, have a browser open at basically any point in time.
So do you want me to switch users between the $browser_user and $main_user every 5 minutes I need to do something outside of the browser?
- nsajko 7y agoI just run chromium as my main user (but usually with a temporary scripted --user-data-dir and HOME environment variable), because it is relatively secure. And switching Linux consoles/X servers is just two key presses anyway.
- nsajko 7y agoCorrection: usually it is three key presses: Control, Alt, F3; for example.
