by the sounds of it if you are using Gnome add the Put Windows extension. then you hit Super+ Keypad number for the screen corners. i.e. top right is Super+kp9

There were also previous notes about public tax dollars should not feed private corporations, but stay within a public system

That is how big companies operate. There was that huge lawsuit / fine of

1.4 billion corruption

A large corporation gave cash to companies and Govt officials to migrate to their software products.

Was your LINUX efi partition on the separate drive? and are you using Linux Grub as the dual boot option?

This smells of "So I work from home, but want to sleep, but if my boss pings me on teams I want an alarm to wake me up"

In theory if you have a circle of friends already, then social should be better with WFH because when it is quitting time you are immediately done and have more evening for social gatherings. if you recently moved cities before WFH, not having colleages might cut down chances of finding new friend groups

For ease of deploying and locking down a client, maybe microOS or nixOS, both have the build from config file setup.

Ah, i skimmed over termserver the first time. Both Mint and Zorin are very Windows like. And Zorin is developing GRID, when released is supposed to be a deploy / management tool for IT caring that is caring for multi client installs.

Full on GUI for what? Server/ clients?

If you need all GUI tools on a server you might want to try OpenSUSE Leap, it has full GUI (Yast2-GUI-GTK) tools for administering network, Firewalld, services, users, shares, LDAP, filesystem snapshots. Also has AutoYast for saving off server and software config and redeploying on another server. YAST software also lets you select packages to install with check boxes, and other click options to lock/hold a package, upgrade, delete etc. While seeing the versions as radio buttons that can be selected. Takes all commandline work out of the equation.

My anecdotes: I have OMV the plugins and docker makes things easy, once you read about how things are meant to be setup. OMV5 had cockpit, portainer plugin/addon making things very simple. OMV6 did away with addin/plugin Portainer to try to make a better built in docker management interface; Which focuses more on compose files. Overall running OMV got me used to docker and eventually CLI management of them.

With SMB shares, DLNA, and several containers running I have never it the 4gig Limit of my Pi. (I actually have an old arm board with 256MB of RAM and use that with an old OMV release and idle it uses about 25% of that RAM, streaming audio gets the cpu up and RAM up but never past 256MB.

A side note. Proprietary closed source software totally uses opensource components. They may or may not disclose it, and they have to offer up what they used, however they are often making the disclosure a fine print item. We support a large proprietary software, we see the memos come through about what bug fixes or opensource library has an issue or vulner. The customers can aign up for this also, but I bet 99% of them don't sign up. And if they were polled on if the software if it was open/closed I'm sure they would say closed only
