Windows 11 is garbage. Linux is dead. Are we left with Mac?

the "year of the Linux desktop" has been here for years, you just have to make it happen on YOUR desktop

find a Linux distro you can be comfy with and learn to master it and one day you will wake up and realize YOU are a wizard with Linux

>>
>>101194397
I've always interpreted "year of the Linux desktop" to be in reference to normie adoption, not the quality of Linux. If you're willing to learn it it's more than stable for daily use—just don't be a retard and choose a hobbyist distro if you're expecting something on par with Windows for mindless use. I lost my need for a video editor last year and swapped and Linux became my only OS.

Doesn't mean shit, Android is Linux based but it's not Linux desktop. Supercomputers run on Linux but it's not Linux desktop. Linux desktop is a meme that's never gonna get better.

Yeah let me know when they release SteamOS as a loose distro you can install on any custom PC with zero issues. Not to mention, has anyone even verified SteamOS doesn't do any unsolicited outbound connections or is everyone sucking Valve's dick and blindly trusting them because they're "pushing Linux to the mainstream"?

There is no special sauce in SteamOS. Everything it does is upstream and available to other distributions.
The only trick to how well the Deck works is the choice of good hardware supported by open drivers.

Not even Windows can be installed on any custom PC with zero issues.
Lots of Windows users buy gimmick hardware and get burned by it.

Macbooks were made for normies. If you even open the terminal then fuck you your using your mac wrong. The fact that macs are only good for work/school/web browsing is fucking gay.

Linux Mint is more functional than Windows 7/11.

I think Windows 10 is still better than Mint, but it reaches its end of life next year.

It's good though, linux isn't dead but it's a very awful experience and freetards try to defend it by continuously saying windows is a spyware, windows isn't a spyware regardless of how hard they try to force this meme

Freetards believe that if your browser automatically checks for updates in the background without your knowledge it's "spyware". Thank fuck they don't have any real jobs in the industry.

>linux is dead
Just switched to fedora desktop fulltime and It's been pretty great.

Ever since Microsoft made O365 apps work online you can just run office apps in PWA in a dedicated browser profile.

99.99% of games literally just work out-of-the-box too, just use steam for steam games, and heroic games launcher for epic store games.

the 0.01% of games that dont work (due to specific anti-cheat solutions) fucking suck anyways, and if you have shit-taste just dual boot when you're going to play them with your retarded friends that play shit games.

That beind said. if you're a fucking braindead fuck why aren't you playing DOTA2 and CS:GO over those shit games anyways? whilst they are also shit games made for cancerous trash they are at least better than the fucking RIOT spyware.

I can't take Windows 11 seriously. I've tried, but it's just something with it that feels so noisy. I feel sorry for Windows on a parasocial level. The fact that it has two control panels, aero and metro - incredible really. Hell, it even has applications that were only meant to transfer your data from Vista to Windows 7. What the fuck caused this mess?
>>
>>101200832
>What the fuck caused this mess?
Microsoft adding shit on top of each WinNT iteration without ever properly refactoring legacy UI's, or really anything else. Did you know that pifmgr.dll in Windows 11 still has the exact same icons as it did in Windows 95? It's a really beautiful mess really.

I fucked around in Windows 11 a couple a months ago, the amount of legacy software is mind-boggling, pic related. I really don't have any preferences when it comes to operating systems, but my main machine runs macOS. I use Linux when needed. But Windows on the other hand, I try to avoid it as much as I can. I really can't understand how colleagues etc use this on a daily basis. I was an avid Windows user, but after Windows 7 I sort of gave up. It's just a lousy user experience.

Windows 10 is full blown spyware and this had been exhaustively proven. W11 is taking it a step further with keyloggers, 0.2 FPS screen recordings, and it's trying to turn your computer into a dummy terminal connected to a mainframe

There is no conceivable way to raise the degree to which your windows PC is spyware. Apple has been the same way before windows
