      I use keepassxc as my password manager and it sits in the system tray quietly until it is requisited by a login form in firefox.

      Gnome does not have a system tray, so you just open keepassxc on startup and it just stays there floating in the background?

      When people talk about switching to Linux from Windows/macOS, especially for those inexperienced with Linux, the conversation often becomes mostly about drawbacks: all the things you'll have to sacrifice, that don't work outright, or that aren't as smooth.

      On the other hand, if you had to highlight the advantages of Linux to a newcomer, what would you say?

      What might someone gain by switching to Linux, rather than lose?

      What are some of the drawbacks people are currently living with on other OSes that they might not be aware of simply because they're used to them?
