It absolutely is a profitable industry, maybe not as profitable as todays greedy shareholders would like it to be. Just look at the CD Projekt that releases 1 game per 10 years and still makes a fortune through Netflix colabs and selling merch.

Yes, either @IfBuildProfile/@DefaultBean if your logic depends on build profile, or @LookupIfProperty/@LookupUnlessProperty if it depends on property value

Can you elaborate on its issues? I've never used it on production myself, but it looks like a simplified k8n, which is something I feel a lot of people desire

Annoying notifications are a thing for most of the MS stack. Outlook, Teams, Word. Recently I had to dig into some cryptic Registry options to disable some stupid balloon notifications in outlook that pop up every time I open the app. I don't care about your tips and your new interface, I just want to be able to search for a specific email and go back to work quickly.

You should try 1password-linux from snap. It's essentially an Electron app but it works fine for me.
