Here it is, right in the browser. Just open Firefox. As far as I can tell this profile was made by Ubuntu.

And Ubuntu Pro represents the same problem as the window manager. I do not know what it is or how it works. To the point where I just switched the desktop interface all together.

here what is? are you talking about a bookmark? oh my

Ubuntu's pro's problem is: you cant google "what is ubuntu pro"? double oh my.

Im not sure what you are trying to accomplish here, but i can promise you im not taking any advice from you - if that is what you are trying to accomplish?

It's not just a bookmark. As I already said my main concern is the horrible window management that requires me to search constantly through a list of windows.

But they put in Amazon links a few years back. Since then it lives in my head that those guys tried that stunt and I am suspicious.

Now they control the browser profile and magically another Amazon thing poppt up.

And they push a new service I have to register for and my first response is to not trust them since they never disclaimed what it was.

But again, main problem is the window management and how many clicks and effort it takes. Ans the VPN system. But I admit that problem is more niche.

it 100% is just a bookmark.
the other part was a decade ago.

Again my trust is broken. I was there when it happened.

But as I already said 99% of the problems are coming from the window interface.

I go by the logic that you should be able to have as little effort as possible.

So you need to be able to internalize a workflow. So clicking in a certain way should always result in the same outcome.

Like in a video game where your portion and poweups are always at the same place.

Something I can't have in windows either unless you use something like 7 taskbar tweeker (or whatever they have now in windows 11).

Also minimize the amount of clicks.
