New workstation - Linux

I posted this tonight thinking I'd get a good number of replies tomorrow AM. I was wrong.
-
Please. please stay away from Dashlane. Pretty looking UI, absolute garbage for support. Ask me how I know!
-
@fateknollogee I won't even ask. Enough said.
-
@fateknollogee Good. I like 1Password and didn't feel like switching.

Oh, and RDP I RDP from my MDP all the time now to Windows boxes. What is a good app for that on the Linux side?
Reminna
Excellent. And what about the times where I would want to remote into my Fedora Desktop? What RDP style app is best for that?

You might still.

I even opted for the "premium support", what a complete waste of time & money!
I had always been on 1Password, I saw the pretty Dashlane UI & decided to switch, oops, they had a bug on Chrome that took them almost 2 months to fix. -

My go to desktop environment is Gnome 3.
-
Gnome 3 is nice. But I like Cinnamon so much more. Or DDE.
-
I use KeePassXC and KeeWeb.
There's a webapp version of keeweb that you can use to access your passwords that is stored on Google drive, OneDrive or Dropbox. -

Cinnamon and DDE is nice too. I just don't like some of DDE default apps.

What do you like about Cinnamon so much?
@black3dynamite What do you like about Gnome 3 so much?

That it's a smooth, normal desktop with a solid paradigm. It doens't do slow, quirky menu things to be trending like Gnome 3. I find Gnome 3 to be better, but fundamentally problematic like Windows 8.

I use Fedora 28 to ScreenConnect to other machines. Works great.
Yes, but there are some SC to Linux issues:
https://mangolassi.it/topic/17279/fedora-with-screenconnect/61Minor to severe depending on the environment being used in.
Also totally not the question.

@fuznutz04 said in New workstation - Linux:
Bonus* I like a nice looking desktop. Clean, but good looking. I like the look of the Deepin desktop. Is there any desktop environment for Fedora that looks similar to Deepin?
I use Cinnamon because in my initial testing of Fedora native desktop options, I liked it the best. I didn't really use any of them much prior to choosing. Mostly, I installed, poked around, wiped, installed next, repeat.

I'm generally pretty happy with them. Extremely well integrated and well made. And they've been adding more of them.

Yes, but there are some SC to Linux issues:
https://mangolassi.it/topic/17279/fedora-with-screenconnect/61Also worth noting, no issues to Linux. Some minor issues to Fedora, and it is dependent on the desktop environment (and compositor.) We use Deepin now for our Jump boxes and found no issues whatsoever with that one. So Linux isn't an issue itself.

Coming from Ubuntu w/ Unity, the layout and the workflow make more sense to me.
