My fave.
I like Linux, I hate the app names. It’s confusing as hell, especially if you are looking for some app that functions the way you imagine, then they name something weird like Nautilus instead of file explorer lmao.
For some reason people get all ways extra fabulous when they make open source Software and need a fancy name instead of a great descriptive one…
Or they could name it atleast nautilus the file explorer or something.
lol, thaat is so true. It’s never just “File Explorer”, is it?
It doesn’t exactly help that there’s like 5-10 of each kind of thing.
For me personally, having 5-10 of everything is good. I find what I like the best and you find what you like best. It can make extra work, but if you subtract out all the time I’d spend fighting the windows UI or looking at ads and “recommended content”, I think we may actually come out on the better end of things.
Thing is, I use Linux cuz it allows to have simplicity and convenience where those things are of value to me.
Not having an online always connected local user account is simplicity to me.
Having file permissions changeable with a simple command rather than having to fuck about a ui and registry is simplicity to me.
Having an os that’s under my control is convenient for me.
Having a user interface that suits my wants/needs and has ample options for customization is convenient for me.
No lie, it’s got to the point that it’s more convenient to use Linux. Windows has become very intrusive with trying to help, privacy issue landmines you have to navigate, it’s not unpleasant to use Windows. It’s just more work to do it.
Don’t worry guys, I know how to fix this. I’ll just create another package manager!! That should do it
As a disclaimer, I didn’t make this myself, and I lovingly use Linux for all my computing needs.
But when I selfhost nextcloud to avoid google, or use proton, I am aware that I don’t allways choose the easy way.

We don’t do it because it’s easy, we do it because we thought it would be easy.

Never heard of chocolatey eh?
Chocolatey is … meh. Better than nothing I guess. Now WinGet is an official MS tool, not to bad, but not much in the repo either.
I use chocolatey on Windows when I’m on windows, the slight issue is a lot of stuff just isn’t on it. That’s rare for me on my main OS where everything is on pacman or the AUR.
Oh I use arch btw.
I love simplicity and convenience. I just don’t like giving up control.

Apparently Windows users just want something that never works, is unsupportable, and required re-installation 3 times a year.
Meme creator has obviously never used Linux Mint.
This meme was made by not a real Linux user actually.
Things that are simple are often not simple to use. Things that are simple to use are often complex. Although, hammers also exist so it’s not exactly an universal rule…
And hammers are also the best tool to deal with a Windows machine!
I disagre. But don’t want to downvote.
I disagree, and I will downvote.
I mean that’s just not true.
I love simplicity. This is why I use Linux. Its just simpler to get simple Software that does just one thing and that good.
And I love tinkering with my os.
