What's your long term strategy when nobody but a few boomer schizos are using 10? I don't think deciding to become a die-hard loyalist to one particular Windows release is worth it in the long term compared to just biting the bullet and migrating somewhere else. People say "forced" because obviously you have to make a decision eventually you're just postponing it while there's still a grace period. Given this board's demographics you're probably not that old and you're choosing a very difficult and inconvenient future on computers and for what? I'll see you and the 7 tards in 2050 when we're all wrinkly and I'll be laughing as you post copes about how you don't need to do anything on your computer but use a fork of Notepad++ maintained by 2 Kazakhs who are only on the OS you have volunteered to be on because it's what happened to be on some old office computer they found in an abandoned building.

That's about as retarded as pulling a working lightbulb when another one goes out. The raid software tells you which serial number is failed. The serial number is on a sticker on the disk, that's the one you replace.

that's exactly the point. there is no sticker unless you are in a professional envoirment.

Any version of Windows since 1995 has been more polished, production-ready and user-friendly than any Linux distro ever made. That's obvious to anybody who has installed both of them on the same machine.

Are Linux users just lying about their distros being a better experience than a Windows installation?

I have an ye olde Win7 install on one of my older computers, but I haven't booted into that in like 8 years.
Linux gets everything done, I need computers for, and does it better than Windows ever did.
The only striking argument in favor of Windows these days is, that it comes pre-installed with ready-built computers.

>>107621970
I am more willing to solve whatever issue Linux throws at me and find a solution to integrate whichever application is not directly compatible with it than to upgrade to Win11. I got it at work, it's awful bloat, the Office and Adobe suites are the ones doing the heavy lifting for the OS. If there were native versions of Excel and Photoshop for Linux I can assure many more would switch to a user friendly distro like Mint

You're supposed to have multiple backups and redundancy in your storage, plus the assumption that a single physical medium will last your entire life is fundamentally incorrect. If you want to keep data for your entire life, you will have to periodically make new copies on newer storage media and also inspect your stuff for failure / degradation.

Some femboy anon posted a thread here last night talking about how tired he was of using windows 11 and linux mint wasnt working for him so he ended up swapping to windows 7.

I didn't get to ask all the questions I wanted cause he disappeared and then the thread got deleted so I'll ask them here.

1. I only have one of those shitty external optical drives since pc company's stopped being cool and removed them, that should work fine if i have the windows 7 ultimate dvd?

2.When updating drivers they all say they wont be compatible, will it just be fine to download them and use them? if not where do I go for stuff like nvidia, amd, and other drivers I need?

3. apps like steam and others that say they don't work on windows 7, how do I get them to work? i'm a bit confused on everything.

I probably have a few more questions but I can't think of them right now and I have to get to work so I'll only be able to check this thread every now and then, thanks for any of the help

No security updates, no compatible software, doesn't work on modern hardware. Avoid. You can turn a modern version of windows into windows 7 usability wise. Just use openshell and ltsc and something like shutup10.

>1. I only have one of those shitty external optical drives since pc company's stopped being cool and removed them, that should work fine if i have the windows 7 ultimate dvd?
Yes.
>2.When updating drivers they all say they wont be compatible, will it just be fine to download them and use them? if not where do I go for stuff like nvidia, amd, and other drivers I need?
You have to use insecure 3rd party updaters, if your hardware is newer than ~2018 it most likely won't even have a driver, so, you're fucked.
>3. apps like steam and others that say they don't work on windows 7, how do I get them to work? i'm a bit confused on everything.
Same as above, you have to rely on insecure 3rd parties, have fun logging in into a 3rd party Steam "fork" that is closed source on an already insecure OS.

>>107653033
>i have the tread saved where they went into detail on how to stay safe, etc. so i shouldnt have that problem.
No such thing as staying safe on there really, no matter how smart you are, or how aware you are, day 0 does not care about you, yes in 90% of the cases you have to execute it to do anything BUT you will have to rely on a lot of 3rd party "forks" of things of which you will have zero clue how secure they are.
>>
>>107655688
>3rd party Steam "fork"
That's not a thing. People just use an old version of steam or a the newest version with compatibility layer (open source if you want to check for botnets).

> BUT you will have to rely on a lot of 3rd party "forks" of things of which you will have zero clue how secure they are
For someone who (presumably) wants people to switch to Linux, you're awfully hostile to the stated purpose of libre software.

Speaking as a leftist,
>Leftists hating infinite clean energy
Nuclear should be way higher net positive here, yes.
>Leftists hating infinite creativity engine
Why are we using machines to automate creative tasks and leaving humans to do manual labor? Why aren't we pushing more to automate manual labor to free ourselves to be creative?
>Leftists hating access to free speech
Free speech? Where? All the social medias ban you or hide your posts if you speak too freely. Even X. The hate also comes from the algorithm optimizing for more interaction, which so often shows you endless posts that piss you off. It's also a place where everyone tries to make their lives look better, and then compared themselves negatively to everyone else who's doing the same thing. There's a reason people take breaks from social media and feel better for it.
All that is why I come here instead. It's antisocial media. We're all anonymous? There's much freer speech. And there's no algorithm, just bump order and any filters you create.
>Government hating money that is not controlled by the government
Ones that behave more like money are overall positive, even though they get used by scammers and that ends up being normies' perception of crypto. Ones that are either pump and dump scams or have lots of speculative bubbles and high trading fees are more just tools for the rich to fleece more money off of the poor with.
