Why do you care about other people using linux? Do you get paid by them using it?

I just really hate to see people complain about stuff but do nothing about it. Oh, Windows 11 is getting worse, is it? They're making it harder to use a local account, are they? Did they add another feature that forces you to open Edge? The new context menu in file explorer takes longer to load and has less stuff in it?
Guess what, retard. There's one simple permanent solution to all your whining and you only have to step out of your comfort zone for a second. Don't want to do it? Stop complaining.

No one with a stable mind gets worried about telemetry.

>>101211887
idk it kinda bugs me because I am on a limited data plan because europe sucks. I don't want to waste a single byte of data unless Microsoft is going to start paying for more gb for me.
>>
>>101211918
The amount of data collected is like 1-2 MBs a week.
>>
>>101211925
you wanna pay me to use that? with Windows I am forced to update, with Linux I never update. I installed Debian 12 and updated to 12.6 after using 12.1 today. It is WAY more than 1-2MBs. I had Windows and would blow through my high speed before 2 weeks even with the check box "limited data" AND fighting with 3rd party tools to block windows 10 updates. I will NEVER go back to that bullshit. Fuck off kike. When you design Windows to stop using up my data like a data vampire I might consider switching back, but as it stands, I am going to continue to happily use Debian and will tell others about how great it is.
>>
>>101211954
You can get Windows 11 for free. You probably had a RAT on your computer, the telemetry Microsoft gets is barely 2 MBs a week that's a fact.

Linux is unusable as a desktop OS, always has been. Enjoy not being able to play the newest games and enjoy no Adobe.

I was 19 years old, am 40 now. I have been using Linux since Mandrake. I switched over to Debian back when it was a pain in the ass to install, then to Red Hat 6 or 8, I can't remember the version. I am on Debian 12.6 now. Everything just works as it should. If you don't use pointless shit like Arch, Linux is fucking amazing.

Just something I've noticed, most Linux users are queer or support LGBT+ cause. It's a common phenomenon in Linux community, more than Windows or Mac. I'm not anti-trans or anything, just an observation.

Linux sucks in many ways but I hate Windows so I wanna trick people into using Linux so that it will potentially attract people who have the knowledge to code better Linux software and make Linux better eventually.
Linux is great in many ways,but it has a huge problem of having a majority ultra nerd low IQ userbase that keeps sperging amongst themselves and keeping Linux down as a whole. It needs more normal nerds to make software that actually works and adding convenient features that people want instead of spergs who always resort to "buh why do you even want that feature??"

empathy?
It's hard to describe if you're unable to even conceptualise it, so bear with me. It's like, you see somebody with a problem, and you have a solution to that problem, so you're compelled to offer assistance to aid them. And people aren't always grateful, they don't always want your help, but something inside us empathetic people just won't give up, we cannot stand to see people struggling, and we'll take a bit of flack if it means helping them.
Does any of that make sense?

>>101211834
I don't want telemetry or anything else because it's bad and scary. Not because I'm some criminal lmao. Get real.

Maybe I don't have a stable mind, but I value privacy, and you should too. Would you like random people coming up to your house and looking through your windows?

Linux has different problems. A lot of the problems with Windows are ultimately because Microsoft's interests and your interests don't align. Even the shitty UI in Windows 11 is a result of you wanting a UI that works and Microsoft wanting a UI that looks good (or at least consistent) because it's better for marketing. If you're sick of that kind of problem, you should try Linux. At least with Linux you get the occasional hobby contributor who's interests align exactly with yours because he's basically you but he learnt how to contribute.

The problem with whining is people who ask "when is Microsoft going to do <thing that's in my interest but obviously not in their interest>." Literally never, dude. You're retarded for waiting. Bite the bullet and switch now.
>>
Most people that use Linux use it because they see themselves as better for using it.
Like, it is difficult and requires a lot of time, so it is like a little bubble they control and makes them feel superior.

That's why tutorials, community and the user experience with Linux is all shit; it is not about making a good product or teaching others, it is about ego.
>>

You occasionally need to collaborate with retards. Modern software is tooled to generate retards who do retarded things and assume that everyone else is a retard just like them, so it's fine if the only way to interact with something meaningfully is via a phone app.
To that end you generate value when you don't have to guide a retard through the process of saving a file locally or opening it with a program that doesn't intentionally break formatting.

>cant use local user

>>
>>101219373
it should be fucing crystal clear obvious why and how that becomes the case, and i am that anon by the way
MOST PEOPLE learned to use linux by putting it on some old hardware or locked bootloader device and almost always their problems are down to kernals not built to work with applications or the kernal CANT be built to work with applications. occasionally other problems show up too like trying and failling to install anything on an immutable OS because why should an everage windows user be expected to know what that is?

in the end linux has its use cases but I find it tiresome to include, not any safer for my information due to prism, and easy to strip out windows protections and telemetry. theres basically not a reason to care. it's not the 90s anymore. the enemy you guys should care about is ARM not wingay. windows is an os for baby duck millenials to rice into windows 98

Lawrence Richard Irwin
DoB: 5/19/1985
Cocain addict
shoplifter brother

Leila Alexandra Scogin
DoB: 1/27/1991
Thot halfsister
between his mom and
Richard Gordon Scogin.
TL;DR mom was a whore,
dad was a cuck.
And in one trip to DC,
Rachel Bieder
simultaneously
dumped Jay and
engaged David Woolston
(must have been
going on for a
long time for
it to all happen
in one trip),
making Jay
a cuck as well.
This is why cuck
in all caps is
word banned.

Ever wonder why
these blatant troll
threads that violate
the only rule in the
sticky are never
deleted while the
mod is literally in
these threads all day
deleting posts?

Because the
apple nigger mód
is the OP posting
from his iphone.
He spends 20 hours
a day of his worthless
NEET life posting and
babysitting these falseflag
anti-linux anti-windows
flamewar troll threads,
deleting posts
exposing him as
the OP, and saving
his troll threads
from page 10 after
every 1-4 hours
of no bites.

The only way to purge these shit threads off /g/ is to put a bullet in his head.
