So you're saying you don't spend hours on a new Windows install?

Or that things that take a moment on Linux may take half an hour on Windows, but God forbid it happens the other way around, unacceptable?

I mean, things that take a single click on Windows are apparently not all you do to make Windows usable, otherwise installing it and setting it up would take less time, right?

I have never spent hours on a Windows install. Full stop.

This is my routine. Install windows, sign in. Install tailscale. Change my trackpad settings. Done.

My Adguard takes care of the rest.

I'm having trouble seeing your point, would you kindly restate?

[–] rottingleaf@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

The point frankly was that I don't see your point.

Unix-like systems have Unix shell as the most basic and universal interface.

If your point was that it's a downside that it even exists, then you are basically saying that something you can't use should be taken away from those who can. Not many allies.
