Do you have a separate admin account, or let your “main” account have admin rights? Do you require entering a password/PIN to install software? Just curious about where people fall on the security-convenience spectrum.

    I’ll do that on my Linux machine if I have to do a lot of admin stuff. Otherwise I just stick to sudo.

      The only reason to actually sudo su is when you have to redirect to a file, as root, and tee is not an option for some reason.
