That's your knee jerk reaction to someone pointing out the faults of desktop Linux. You prefer to languish in the hallowed halls of Linux superiority. The only problem is desktop Linux isn't superior to Windows or OSX. In fact it's a train wreck. You might want to consider that Linux, despite being free for decades, still hasn't managed to make any inroads in market share yet Android, ChromeOS and others have. So what is Linux doing wrong? I dunno, but people like you certainly aren't helping. Try reading the article and you might have a clue. Are you lonely? Haven't you got anything better to do than trolling? Yawwn..... Not a single specific counter argument. I win. You lose. Troll |

You making a claim might carry weight in the Linux community in denial but in the real world it means nothing. Specifics please. This is not the hurting truth. This is you trolling trying to get a rise out of folks. Yawn. You need some new material. Hint: you are jumping around like a retard trying to claim the world is flat means nothing. Hint#2: Try addressing the points in the article. You won't though. Why? Because you know most are true to some degree. And as long as I have you dangling on a rope, how do I assign all the buttons on my Logitech mouse on a program by program basis? Come on, you surely can answer that one. Lonely?

Of course you'll never admit that most of this is true, but it only takes the average person a few hours with Linux to realize how much Linux sucks. https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comme...nux_and_going/ Goodbye Linux: Why am ditching linux and going back to Windows 10 "Around 6 months ago, I made the move to Linux. I am not a gamer, so it was easy for me. To make the experience more authentic, I installed linux on my main machine and didn't dual boot Windows. It was only linux for me. It has been an interesting journey, but sorry I can't take it anymore. Please note that I am strictly speaking as a non-developer, non-geek but a "power user". My reasons might not apply for developers and very technical users. Below are the reasons am going back: 1) Windows vs Package Manager Repo System : Repeatedly I was told that the software repository and package manager system of linux is much superior than the Windows system of downloading .exes from developer sites. This is such a lie that it's not even funny. The reason: age of software. Win32 .exe softwares get updates independently from the base OS. You can use Windows 7 and guess what, you favorite softwares will all run at the LATEST version. I repeat, you can use Windows 7 and your Blender and Krita will be at the latest version. What the version of Blender and Krita on Ubuntu 16.04 or 14.04? Is Ubuntu 14.04 even usable for normal desktop use anymore, consider its software repo age? And no, am not using any rolling distro or Fedora because their stability doesn't hold a candle in front of Ubuntu, mint, debian stable, win 10 or macOS. Also I shouldn't have to upgrade my OS just to get the next version of software. This is absolutely unacceptable and ridiculous. The fact that my softwares stays fully cutting edge, up to date on Windows while the base OS stays same is extremely important. 2) Security and BSODs etc : Contrary to FUD, Windows 10 is actually very secure unless you want to download softwares from crackedfreesoftwares.ru. You DO NOT need a separate antivirus, Windows Defender is now enough. It runs like a dream on most hardware. And Windows do NOT force upgrades in the middle of work. BSODS have long been a thing of distant past. Basically am saying that repeatedly using the boogeyman of security, bsods etc isn't working. 3) Atrocious Desktop Environments : My main reason of ditching linux. Linux DEs are such a sad joke compared to Windows (or Mac) DE that it is not even funny. Let's start, shall we: GNOME: The DE suffers from MEMORY LEAK for god's sake. Performance is pathetic, much much worse than Windows 10 or mac DE. This is also the main default desktop of linux world, which actually says a lot about linux. It's absolutely unthinkable for us to even use a DE which suffers from extreme memory leak, and developers doesn't even shows any intention of fixing it. It is just unthinkable on Windows. Gnome is also unusable out of the box, and you have to use random 3rd party hack job extensions just to get a basic fully functional DE. You need to download a software to get simple minimise button. Simply Unbelievable. And you guys, like a bunch of callous users, continue to support it and use it while happily doing ALT+F2 - r. Lame. ii KDE - So, so many small random but crucial bugs that it is really impossible to list them all. They try to emulate Windows, and does a pretty poor job. For example, just use the "hover option" on KDE task bar. See the quality of preview. Does KDE devs even know how important that single function is? Small random bugs like this simply makes it inferior to Windows DE. iii XFCE - Thanks, but no thanks. Its 2018, not 1998. No hover option btw. Too basic and limited. iv Cinnamon - Too strongly tied to Linux Mint, a distro indulging in many questionable practises. Bad aesthetics. What up with that huge square like menu? And why does the menu size increases when I add favorites?? It's already too big anyway. It just looks like a cheap rip off of Windows XP. v Mate - Still too basic compared to Windows. vi Tiling windows managers - Unusable and irrelevant for non-developers, non-geeks. Anyway, for me default DE matters. Even if the perfect DE exists somewhere in the wild, if a distribution chooses a subpar DE, it says a lot about them and their focus on user friendliness. And since most of the linux world has enthusiastically opted for Gnome 3. a pathetic subpar incomplete DE, it says a lot about you guys. 4) Sickening Hypocrisy of the Community : Let's start, shall we - i Saw multiple. caustic rants about how MS Windows 10 provides a poor inconsistent UI because of 2 settings menu (legacy and metro). And you guys say this while primarily using a piece of jewel like Gnome 3. /s ii Linux is all about control. Just don't expect a fcking minimise button by default on popular DEs like Gnome and Pantheon. OK got it. iii The arrogance and know-it-all attitude of gnome devs and elementary OS devs will put the arrogance of MS and Apple to shame. But i guess that's okay cause they are your own. iv Continuously compare Windows from 2002 to Linux from 2017 and try to prove your point about how linux desktop is superior. Continuously attack MS for telemetry and control and while happily using Google services and FB. Giving Apple a pass cause they are unix. The list goes on and on.... 5) Last but not the least, atrocious softwares - Yeah guys, accept it, LibreOffice and GIMP sucks balls compared to MS Office and Photoshop. Krita gives MS softwares a run for their money, but LibreOffice and GIMP are simply cringy embarrassments. You will get fired if you dare to make a presentation with LibreOffice Impress in a corporate environment. It is so bad. VLC Media Player is out right bad compared to Pot Player on Windows. Nothing on linux compared to MusicBee on Windows. I won't even embarass you guys by talking about JRiver Media Center. Most linux desktop softwares simply lacks the feautures, polish and finesse compared to their Windows counterpart. And no, it is not MS or Adobe's fault that those softwares are not available on Linux. You guys continuously rant about evil proprietary software. Upstream major distros like Debian and Fedora doesn't even include proprietary softwares in their main repo. Then why should proprietary software companies release their softwares on linux? What sort of a weird entitled demand is that? Why should proprietary software companies accept second class treatment on linux and hear some caustic remarks from Gnome devs and Debian greybeards? It was up to you guys to provide a real 1:1 alternative to MS Office, Photoshop and various other proprietary softwares, and you guys failed. And yes, hardware support and display quality is much better on Windows. The fault again lies with Linux. If you treat propreitary drivers and firmware as second class citizens, don't expect hardware developers to go out of their way to support Linux. That's an unfair demand. Bye. After experiencing Linux, my respect for Microsoft and Windows 10 has increased by a 1000 times. IMPORTANT EDIT - REASON FOR WRITING THIS POST - This problems have bugged me since the beginning. But I came to linux at a tumultuous time, when Ubuntu has abandoned Unity (so Ubuntu Unity 16.04 is a dead horse), and Ubuntu 17.04 and 17.10 are only interim releases. So I cut linux desktop and Canonical some slack and waited for the next LTS. Today I tried Ubuntu 18.04 Beta and guess what? Lo and behold, the glorious memory leak is still present. And my head just exploded in rage. :/ So much effort, so much time spent tweaking, so much distro hopping, so much anticipation to permanently shift was all for naught. That's why I made this salty post. +10 Thank you. It's the truth. Trolling again Yawwn..... Not a single specific counter argument. I win. You lose. Troll |
