"Name one reason, I would like to try Linux."
"[Names some reasons]"
"[Argues forever]"
People like you are so irritating. What's the point of doing this? If you wanted to argue about it then why lie to lure people into responding?
It's Linux, fuck's sake, if you want to argue about it just make a top level post writing anything at all about Windows or any distro and you'll have plenty of takers.
Look at how mad you are on Microsoft's behalf. So according to yourself, you have deep problems to attend to. Go get some help, then, good luck.
I think he perfectly described the lemmy linux community. Windows is not that bad like the people here says. It just takes some time after installation to uninstall the ms crap you dont want. Windows have the best compatibility with the software and hardware. It is a fact.
He's pretending he doesn't want to argue so that people will respond so that he can argue. I don't give a damn what he uses.
The two of you are in linuxmemes unhappy about how Lemmy linux users are being unfair to Windows. Good luck with that, I guess?
You don't need to pretend to want a genuine discussion "oh I do want to try Linux so much" to get an argument. Just be direct, plenty of people will oblige you. You're doing fine, BTW, your position is clear, nobody responding to you about OSes will get anything they weren't expecting.
Go find some help.
You are so mad about this whole thing. Unhinged. All you want to do is argue and whine over and over and over. You're still here trying to bait and provoke a response. Calm down and go get some help.
Name one good reason then.
All these things are mild annoyances at best that can be disabled in a couple of clicks. At least, if you are technologically inclined. Which I hope you people are
If it was something like needing an emulator just to run most software at lower framerates, or having no support for certain hardware, it would be a good reason.
Go argue with people who care about changing your opinion.
