yeah that's what people complain about on windows sure
Nice bait and all but this is literally the other way around.
No. Windows has these "issues" if you use a diverse-enough set of apps, and there are quite-a-few things in won't let you tweak without paid or uNtRuSteD apps that Linux will. The difference is that Linux includes more diverse apps by default, and doesn't hide them away very well.
Personally, I love a bit of inconsistency, and Windows resides on my laptop because I'm more concerned with getting Linux onto my phone these days.
i don't hate windows because of design inconsistencies and imagined security differences. i hate windows because it shoves ads in my face and spies on me, and every time i dig through the registry to get it to not do that, it gets undone with the next system update.
i use linux because it doesn't make me do that in order to have a system i consider usable.
Also the pulling-teeth-process of updating Windows. How does a commercial OS shit the bed on that so hard?
What's the problem with the updates? I don't have any problems with OS-Updates on W11 and also have no commercials or Copilot or shit like this. And no update ever tried to bring me those things. EU btw
Oh man I love playing Start Menu. One of those games that just doesn't work on Linux.
Linux folks can get annoying sometimes, but Windows has become absolutely painful to use recently. It's adware is absolutely disgusting, in line with everything else in corporate society. Every time I use my computer, I'm reminded that I live in a dystopia. When I get a new desktop, it sure as shit won't run Windows.
Sure keep telling yourself that you enjoy all the ads, malware, garbage UI and UX, bloated size, cost, etc
Nobody has fun using windows, they just tolerate it.
I don't think people's #1 problem with Windows is that the icons are inconsistent sometimes.
straw pengiun......
also i wan that as a plushie now meow >w<
Wow, I'm having so much fun staring at the start menu.
Cope.
OP successfully triggered people, this isn't even offensive (I use opensuse btw)
inconsistency with icons and design in some areas
Sounds like a straw man argument. What Linux user would cite that as a complaint against Windows?
(I use arch btw)
A noob, or anyone who spends too much time on /UnixDesktops without realizing that /rainmeter is also a thing.
Just answering your question. Debian here
Someone loves sucking on micro soft dicks (joking, wanted to make the micro soft joke)
This is so true! I would say, especially on Lemmy, but I'm so late plenty of users already made that point for me. lol
That said, I'm just waiting for Microsoft to implement that copilot crap to finally maybe actually try to transition to linux - same reason I finally left reddit (I was basically forced off)
Yah, I got tired of reconfiguring my windows every-time it updated.
The little annoyances built up to a point where the 1 hour of migrating stuff over and booting up a new OS was worth it.
I'm in this picture and I don't like it
Well, the real problem is that Windows enjails people while GNU/Linux empowers by giving freedom
linux "secure" lol
