@leo How does this differ from runas?

It doesn’t by much. But this one’s going into Windows 😬

@leo runas went into Windows when it was Vista.

I think I was thinking “doas” the sudo alternative! Now I’m even less sure how they differ 🤔

Good. #linux win here.

Every feature they adopt, every bit MS concedes that windows should be more like linux, is something people learn, and that lowsers the barrier to switching because they are familiar with the concept.

How about instead of trying to shim Linux into Windows…just make Windows a DE on Linux and be done with it. Jesus.
