I’m so tired of this shit man, I no longer have any real plan.
I’m seriously considering carrying the smallest x86/ARM Tablet capable of running Linux I can alongside some cheap phone for 4G hotspot and calls/strictly necessary.
Guess PC land is the last place we still have freedom (for now!!! 🙄🙄🙄)
I’m not one to bang on about the year of Linux, but honestly, the floor is falling out from under ‘consumer Windows,’ and they are doing little to stop it.
At some point, even OEMs are going to get fed up and start offering their own wine/proton centric distros on some laptops/big tablets. They will be awful and bloated, and business laptops will probably be stuck with Windows forever, but still.
Yeah, they don’t allow us to use TOTPs. It’s “passkeys only” through MS Authenticator. Using anything else causes the 365 dashboard to refuse to onboard.

You can use a MiFi router with tablet and a dumbphone just for calls.
Not for long, the Microsoft boot secure thing is sus

Fedora is a thing
If my job didn’t require MS Authenticator I would just be carrying around a dumb phone and my work laptop.
My job requires MS Authenticator and I just use Aegis to make my TOTPs.
Is there a deeper MS Auth feature that locks you in?
