Chromebooks are great for Glide

Hi Darren & Yes I led a previous thread here: Can I Glide (User + Dev) well with a ChromeBook?

I have the Acer 317 Pentium Silver. The 17"
@nathanaelb Yes, still happy with my CB, but here are some caveats:

  1. cannot “install” Zoom Meeting, the app is the same as on Android and very crappy (no sharing, bad image). Zoom became a no go. Luckily, Meet has improved it’s quality and we look less like zombies (but still not as pro as in Zoom for desktops)

  2. I’m using an 11 ports Baseus Hub with VGA (second screen for visio), HDMI, RJ45, Audio Jack, USB, SD, TF : great, but that vampires the battery duration. Better to work as much as possible with the excellent WiFi and unplug the hub.

  3. I installed Linux, in prévision to install later Open Office, Audacity and other applications.

  4. I love working with separate workspaces and tabs groups

  5. Glide will have to wait until I come back: Priorities.
