I am going to ask if I may use linux for work. We are using windows but there is nothing that couldn’t be done on linux. Privately, I am mainly a fedora user but I’d be happy with any OS and DE or wm. What do I need to look out for when I suggest an OS? What does a computer/ linux/DE need in order to be ready for enterprise workstation? Will I only have a user and no sudo rights? May I install all flatpak apps? Does the admin have to be able to remote ssh?
Does your company have a serious IT department that manage devices?
If yes, then you’ll need to do whatever they say, and be ready to be told that’s not happening.
If not, I’d suggest a stable distro, encrypt the disk, and use flatpak/nix to install fresh packages. Fedora could work, but I’ve had bad luck with it, and wouldn’t want to risk my device crapping out because of an update.
The rest is really going to depend on your work and your it department.
