You can literally say the exact same thing with Windows. That's how you Linux peeps feel, constantly yelling "why are you using windows! Stop having fun!"

Is windows perfect? Nah. But does it work most the time? Yeah. All the bitching about windows being shit and yet my 300+ installed games all work..... Crazy....

How about just let people use what they like and shut up with the damn "my OS is better than yours" nonsense?

It's posts like this, that even though I've used Linux in the past, make me immediately think "nah, fuck that, I'll stick to windows. I don't want to deal with those people."

You're more of a harm than help.

I'd say around half of the games I play on Linux require some kind of special launch script, specific Wine version, or even different versions of Steam to run properly. It's nowhere near as simple as people make it out to be.
