@SweetBlackHearts @zens@merveilles.town good linux experiences are alien to me too, wow, it's almost like you're starting to get it
@SweetBlackHearts @zens@merveilles.town windows is bad! Congrats i will not argue against you on that. All OS is bad. Computers are bad. i'm more level headed than you in this regard, because i'm not pestering you for saying that
@SweetBlackHearts @zens@merveilles.town you wanted arguments for why linux is bad and we've given you them and you won't accept them therefore it's clear you're only in my mentions to argue in bad faith because we don't love your pet operating system
@SweetBlackHearts @zens@merveilles.town so would you say i'm using it wrong if the distro i got came with gnome and swapping desktop environments is not as easy as telling me to do so
@zens@merveilles.town @SweetBlackHearts AUDIO! that's a big one i forgot to mention
i do live streaming from time to time. my A/V set up will NEVER be supported by linux as easily as installing a program. i need to program a farking low-level driver in some obscure byzantine config language to do anything remotely resembling that and forget about VST support because that's filthy windows DLLs
@SweetBlackHearts @zens@merveilles.town
- most people who design software for it cannot agree to be decent people (HELLO, GNU IMAGE MANIPULATOR PROGRAM)
i can keep going but i'll spare luci of more spam (sorry in advance)
@SweetBlackHearts @zens@merveilles.town
- i spend SO LONG trying to WORK *AROUND* the idiosyncracies of UI, which change from distro to distro to version to version
- do-dist-upgrade never worked for me
- things break every time i do a package upgrade
- things i want to do need packages that are not in my manager because i can't do a distro upgrade, so i need to nuke the whole computer and start over
- nobody who designs software for it can agree to design it for non-programmers
@SweetBlackHearts @zens@merveilles.town you ARE telling me to give you a better argument
so off the top of my head without having a linux device near me right now:
- i have never had linux make full usage of my graphics hardware
- i have never had linux play nice with all the HID i want to use
- less about the software but i have been constantly told by anyone using linux that it's my fault for wanting to use it that way, or having the hardware i have
@zens@merveilles.town @SweetBlackHearts At Least It's Not ChomeOS™
here's my experience with linux: in over a decade of using it i have never once in my life enjoyed setting up a linux system. i have done it more often than i have set up windows systems and mostly only for server reasons but linux is not and will never be a desktop daily driver. it's a great backend but there is no cohesion or proper care in its frontend and it has only been declining ever since gnome changed paradigm like three times already (the thing people like to rag on windows for!)
@SweetBlackHearts @zens@merveilles.town so saying #windows is bad is just sounding like a subjective argument.
@SweetBlackHearts @zens@merveilles.town windows is bad? i haven't had that kind of experience. i have two #Windows10 systems, an old Thinkpad and a desktop gaming PC. i typically do projects with windows based os. i use #linux only in systems without a graphical interface because trying to use any user interface devices on linux is a spawn of satan. i work as a software engineer and never had a single #linux work computer.
@SweetBlackHearts @zens@merveilles.town i've been using linux for over a decade now, i've seen plenty of distros and preachers come and go. i think i'm very used to linux and how bad it is
@zens@merveilles.town @SweetBlackHearts but but but linux is actually good. maybe it's your hardware. buy the right hardware. what? no i'm not going to buy you a computer why are you asking that
@SweetBlackHearts @zens@merveilles.town not reading all that; happy for you tho, or sorry that happened
