@lightnsfw @DaddleDew what tax program? All the major ones I know of (at least in the US) not only run just fine but are fully supported by the company that makes them to run on linux (honestly mostly because they're all either just web or electron apps now anyways)
It wasn't the website. The pdf app wouldn't open files off my file server because it didn't know how to handle the smb prefix in the file path.
@lightnsfw which distro? all major linux distros support the smb:// prefix out of the box. (the app shouldn't matter, as it's just a filesystem handle)
Bazzite. It was that specific app that couldn't open the file. I can't remember the name of the app Ocu-something I think. Dolphin was able to browse my server just fine. Honestly never had an issue like that on Linux before. I found a fix for it by going in and changing a config file for how the app handles files from SMB but expecting people to have to do that just for opening shit from a network share is just the kind of things that make using Linux annoying. I'm still going to work at it because Windows is bad too but they're not in competition because of how great Linux is. It's because windows is getting worse.
Edit: This was the specific issue: https://gist.github.com/NonLogicalDev/f518e93aa19d3fc620bae15d388cba58
