That comment is neither nice nor unkind. If someone can’t take a relatively neutral comment in stride and requires that I be “nice”…that’s a pretty unfortunate way to live, tbh.

If you disagree with any of the claims that’s fine, but I think the facts are fairly rock solid. It’s a word whose definition can’t include windows. It’s a word people parrot endlessly in the last year or so since Doctorow got popular, without actually understanding it. If you want to prove me wrong, go for it.

So you’re saying you know how to play COD on Linux?

Windows 11 isn’t enshittified, it’s just shit. You should consider learning what that word actually means rather than just parroting it like everyone else.

Yeah cloud office is ok in a pinch but everyone does still use the installed app. This story about changing deploys might make sense if deploying on windows wasn’t a solved problem.

That’s a very privileged view, the vast majority of people didn’t change their work life.

You can play COD? Libre office suddenly became decent better than literally just writing in notepad?

You think “branding” is the key difference? Are you insane?

You are overestimating.

You…don’t like Thinkpad keyboards? You may be alone in this.

Once you invite designers into your software you can’t get rid of them.

I think Linux nerds are clowns who don’t understand that not everyone wants to learn what -xvf means just to extract a goddammed file.

Kde is solid and requires zero fuckery in my experience to work well. This is in fedora, suse, arch (endeavour), void.

There was but noone knew what to do with it. We were all universally confused for like a solid 25 years.

I don’t think this paints a bleak enough picture of Linux before 2010 or so tbh, but it’s a good start.

It was real real rough

Imagine gnome but instead of deciding your settings for you, they had a dialog where you had to pick the settings yourself.

No she prepares kids for Epstein’s island in a pizza restaurant basement

But also, your example of where 4chan isn’t a lie is…a lie? I don’t think this is the argument you want it to be.

At this point the downvotes are on you, pretending you don’t know a meme because you want to be Mr serious concerned citizen 🙄

It’s a meme

Always fake and gay

Whoever downvoted you should have just saved us all the trouble and said so.

Exactly

Yes if you were oblivious enough of memes and internet culture to take my post at face value, this might make sense as a response.

Who do you think you’re responding to? Because that’s a non-sequitur on my post.

That account openly claims to be Elon. 4chan is only lies. This user is not Elon. q.e.d.
