Seems like this topic got lots of attention over night, I really appreciate it!

It looks like there’s really no solution for what I’m looking for, even if I’d move to windows I don’t think I’d get what I want. Apparently only Apple has that but I’m not sure, never owned an apple device.

Seems like this would be a cool project to work on, cross platform cross device parental control with Linux as a first class citizen.

She’s using a Samsung android phone with Family Link, it’s meh but does it’s job. I’m looking into limiting screen time more than content restrictions, and having the total screen time across all devices in a centralised service is very much what I’m looking for.

My daughter has ADHD and if we don’t limit her screen time she can literally spend the whole day sitting and watching Minecraft videos, and then later she gets very grumpy, so yeah while I absolutely hate having to do it, it’s more for her own health than content exposure (not blocking websites and app installation other than by age recommendation).

This one is going to be an unconventional one but I do love the Ubuntu font and I try to sneak it into some documents I write.

That’s a pretty great extension I use on a daily basis. I just wish there would be a little more customisation on how it looks like.

I’d like to be able to have more options on how the window appears and where, like a smaller floating window appears where the mouse or the cursor is would be also a useful option. I don’t need link previews and I think the item boxes are too big.

I guess it’s just a survey they want you to answer, it may not be related to the context you were working on.

The incident report part is what truly scares me.

Thought fully switching a desktop environment up to your login screen and all is a little more complicated and can end up bricking your system if you don’t know what your doing. For those cases, you also would need to swap the system identity. Not entirely sure what was the command right…
