Kinda makes it harder to attract foreign talent to Norwegian startups as it could affect their decision moving to Norway. While I think the number of people affected is exaggerated, the most well-known case would be the Dune Analytics founder who had to pay more in tax than his salary and was forced to either take a loan to pay taxes (no guarantee the company would succeed) or move out of the country.


This, and barnevernet has reputation similar to gestapo in East Europe.


You might've mixed up your analogy there, Gestapo was a German 3rd Reich thing… NKVD would be the Soviet one.


Germans (including gestapo) gassed a few million people here. Soviets (including NKVD) liberated survivors.

But maybe I read wrong history books.


That wasn't what I meant, I'm confused why you're associating the Gestapo with Eastern Europe. They were active in all of German controlled Europe with a pretty bad reputation almost everywhere. The nazi mass murders also have more of an association with the SS rather than the Gestapo, especially when it got worse in the later years.

(FYI, the NKVD killed more than 100'000 Poles in a just a few months in 1941. I haven't found a total. But they were also active in all of the CCCP. Not sure what would be an Eastern Europe specific reference here…)


Or the Stasi (Staatssicherheit) for the DDR.


I switched to 1Password simply because I liked the browser extension, and the Mobile app better. I had issues with autocomplete with bitwarden on phone


Looks great! When I introduce people to Linux I usually start them off with PopOS!, or KDE I really think it's a great DE. I would probably use it if I wasn't heavily invested into window managers
