Windows 7 was superior in everyway to Linux. 11 is more of a parallel grade program.Spent hours and hours looking into potentially switching over and I can say without a doubt, Linux is simply for people who talk loud to make themselves look smart....And probably pan handle at the nearest highway exit🤷 Why do that to yourself. Windows is out of the box ready

I've been using Linux on the desktop since 1999.It really, really sucked back then. Compiling kernels so they would actually run on my hardware, living with terrible gaming because all of the video drivers had to be reverse engineered, really crappy substitute programs that got abandoned.Yep, went through it all.But as a professional IT person, I saw that Windows was the number one source of spam from bots. A newly installed Windows 7 box that was exposed to the Internet would become a bot server in minutes.Where as Ubuntu listened on zero ports with the default install.And now, when I can run Office 365 software in a browser, when Steam has Proton and runs games reliable enough that they are making bank selling a Linux device to run Windows games, when Windows 11 is basically an app for Microsoft to spy on you and sell your data and push their spam at you...A Linux Mint desktop, on hardware that was thoughtfully chosen, simply works.

I'm sure it does, but since a desktop install of Ubuntu doesn't listen on ANY ports by default, you only need to harden it if you install certain software that opens ports.I run things like IPFS and a local copy of nginx, but most people won't and don't need that.

Can you explain a bit more? I’m not sure that I’m fully appreciating the difference between appliance and tool in this analogy. I used to be savvy enough to run dual boot Windows/Mint, but I haven’t kept up my Linux prowess. Now, my perfectly fine machines are no longer Windows supported so I might need to brush up again.

Wrong.My 80-year-old mother-on-law just installed Linux Mint MATE on a laptop last week and is happily posting boomer memes to Facebook.While there is some hardware that is problematic, it's not like telling everyone that any CPU without TPM 2.0 is verboten. Because grandma is not going to be able to do the things you suggest to fix that.

Do you need to know how a refrigerant cycle works to get the AC to cool your house? No. It's an easy to use appliance with a specific function.But what if you want to replace the refrigerant gas with something else, or use the compressor to make dry ice? Well. Now the AC system isn't just an appliance anymore, but a tool.All I meant was that if the arguably horrible W11 user experience is fine with you, then fine. Checking email, watching YouTube, playing games: Appliance functions. If it's not, then it's probably because you're treating your computer like a tool and not an appliance. Hope that analogy makes a lick of sense.

Absolutely! Thank you, it does. I’m a relatively new homeowner, for example, so I’ve been building my tool collection and learning to repair and be more handy but I’m still pretty basic, so your explanation resonates. I lean on a lot of appliances and repair guys, but I try to learn as much from them each time. Most repair guys seem pretty happy to share their knowledge, thankfully.

@WilhelmIII @Omega_Variant @The_Almighty_Kek @tyler @verita84eva Been using Linux (started with Slackware -- 14 3.5" floppies (or flippies, as we sometimes called them)) since 1995. Started using the "Mother's Day" release of Red Hat Linux (version 3.0.3) on an Digital Alpha UDB (aka Multia) when I discovered Red Hat before anyone knew who they were. (Dammit. *Just* missed Mother's Day release being a strange synchronicity.)Yes, it was painful, but I was a system administrator using various company's versions of Unix and actually had an OSF/1 (later Digital Unix) desktop at work. So it was my *job* to get things working. When Linux came along it was just a natural to put it on my company issued laptop.Never used anything since (except for 4 months I won't talk about). Where I am now, the company supports Windows and Mac. I use Fedora Linux. Linux is 'tolerated' but not supported. I've had my share of small problems going against the grain. But especially lately, I've heard so many gripes from my coworkers about the problems they are having with their company issued desktops or laptops, that I've started to tell them that I don't want to hear any more nonsense from them about "why do you bother using Linux because it's too much work to keep things working with company infrastructure?" Yeah. About that, you sycophants.

@WilhelmIII @Omega_Variant @The_Almighty_Kek @tyler @verita84eva The only people I know who 'don't have trouble' with Windows use it for very limited tasks and something *does* go wrong, they have someone else fix it. To them it just kept working because they had someone fix it. I don't fix Windows shit anymore. At least one dude figured that out and now when he brings me some old laptop, he just asks me to get his data off of it, put a version of Linux on it that will work, and copy his data back. True story.

I do have one windows pc in my office. It runs quickbooks, so I get that. I do recall seeing something recently that allows windows applications to be ran in their own windows, but in vm (not wine). My memory may be bad though. I think the key would be cloning a central system that's fixed. I think the problems start to arise when different people have different setups. Thus, I'd make the build as robust as possible to avoid having a bunch of user specific issues. Companies do this with windows VMs and thin clients all the time. But I get the issue you're pointing at. Trust me. I have about 20 computers running various builds, some general use, some for specific purposes. It is a bit of work to maintain, though I've automated a bit via cron.

@verita84eva @Humpleupagus @Omega_Variant @The_Almighty_Kek @WilhelmIII @tyler Wayland, that is.Back to the point. An app that is Windows only (much less common today for business critical functions) has zero to do with the 'everything just works' on Windows claims. Having an app that only runs on Windows does not make Windows any less shitty.

When windows doesn't work. It just doesn't work. I used windows for a few years when I first started practicing. I probably had a borked update every other month, and would have to wait two hours for it to repair. I have never had such global problems with Linux. App specific problems, sure. But I've never had anything that wasn't solvable. Linux is like a tank built from parts borrowed from the army surplus store.

Quickbooks is gay. The desktop version I'm running lacks very basic features like importing time sheets at all, even from csv or excel (they wanted people to pay extra for that feature). Time has to be hand entered. So sqlite -> CSV -> xdotool -> anydesk -> quickbooks. 😏

I have trust accounts I have to keep track of, and the bar can randomly audit. Thus, I prefer to use software where they can't question the reports. There are some linux solutions, but it would take a bit if elbow grease to get setup and have to limit my projects. I'm almost done with my latest, so I may look at that again.

Nothing just works on linux, except maybe manjaro, who does a fair job of having proper conf files at package install. Most other build require some work, and it can be confusing to noobs because most programs use a client-server model, e.g. mpd, that require that they rtfm.

I think windows is better for normies, but for the "power user" Linux will always be superior. One major reason is because a lot of the software available is comprehensive. While it does take some elbow grease, I've always been impressed by the fact that when I need some particular app to do something, either the app developer has already added such a feature, usually due to a long history of community input, or someone has a fork or another app that carries the weight. Basically, linux comes with a focus group and the apps reflect that.
