Well there’s your problem!
Again, install Linux already and be done with this shit.
Linux users are what everyone says vegans are.
But they speak from a high a position of superiority and rightness.
When Linux gets around to supporting all the games I like I will
Alright, continue to suffer on Windows. Or fix it yourself.Edit: I should have taken a different approach. It is difficult for older games or games specifically made for the Windows System. However there are many efforts made by good people. Valve’s Proton is doing good things and Lutris is also making it easier. I am not expecting that all the games will run however there a few options that others made such as filing issues with the manufacturers or supporting projects that try to port it / fix it in some other way.
Is this how you advocate for Linux?
Why bother trying to convince people like you who only complain about Windows, but are way too lazy to do anything about? It’s just a waste of my time. I’d much rather gloat about how I don’t have to deal with crap like this. Don’t come on here and expect sympathy for something that is entirely within your power to change.
That’s always so easy to say, isn’t it?
Far easier to do too. I did one of each last month and there’s no question that the Windows setup experience is terrible in comparison.
The software and hardware I’m using won’t work on Linux.
Linux community arrogance is to deny the device driver issues and think Apple is fine, when the reason Apple thrives is because they don’t have open hardware like Linux, BSD, Windows…
Hardware companies are rarely held account for their absent support of Linux - some campaigns have come and gone, but in the end Linux users tend to arrogantly say it’s trivial to switch and embrace dishonesty. I guess they figure Microsoft is dishonest, so they normalize it.
Microsoft really wants someone to remind it of these days:
There are talks in the EU with the DMA about bringing this back.
I like that part of firefox’s summary was that it’s free. Uh, yeah, they all are. Thanks Mozilla!
No, they are all available at no cost. Only Firefox is free software.
