2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Edge, especially for work, is fantastic.

    Eh. Something makes DevOps sites load slowly when opening from outlook. Like, opening a handful of links takes a minute or so

    Devops sites? What does that even mean lol?

    I've never once had links take any sort of noticeable time to open outside of the scanner link/redirect. Which doesn't have to do with edge or outlook. You probably are conflating two issues.

    Azure DevOps. Another Microsoft product.

    No other browser does this, and it only happens when opening the link from outlook. Which does make sense to me because edge has some kind of outlook integration. Probably our incompetent network admin and weird ass network and AD situation does not help, but it's still a bunch of microsoft products that don't work properly together.

    I'm still convinced you are just noticing the redirect/link checker built into m365/ azure AD.

    [–] meekah@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    I was not aware that's a thing. So you're saying every link I get on outlook has a redirect link stuck in front of it because of azure AD? But why does that not cause chrome or firefox to load the pages slowly?

    [–] LemmyIsFantastic@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    In some configurations outlook will replace links with something like this (domain is incorrect, but here's the gist) outlookvirusscanner.outlook.com?scanredirect=theoriginalink.com

    So yes, that WILL slow you down, but there is a valid reason for it. If that's the reason I have no idea why the others wouldn't be slow. It might just be a I use x at home vs y at work type deal?

    [–] meekah@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

    Nope, tried around with different browsers at home and at work precisely because of the issue I mentioned.
