>not only is the desktop experience garbage
I can't say I've spent a great deal of time thinking about my desktop. I use my computer.

>who expect you to spend hours upon hours learning this shit
So... The crux of your complaint is after copying *nix and splitting off in an entirely different direction, moving back isn't comfortable?

>macos and windows just works right out of the box without having to touch the terminal
There's plenty that applies to, too. With the extended support carried by *nix, *far* more shit 'just works'. Major exception comes with hardware drivers from closed source bundles they are not legally ***ALLOWED*** to pack with the distribution.

The OP's picrel, mint. You do realise one of the project goals there is to minimise terminal use? Sure, they've not 100% that, but realistically, you *never* have to powershell winhoes? I was to understand that's the only way you can actually get anything serious done. And on the desktop experience front, also outta the mint factory, is cinnamon. Somone used to winhoes shouldn't find it that alien. Kinda the point of that, too, as it is only really a gnome fork (or it was).

I switched my main PC to Devuan with KDE. The biggest problems I had were getting the installation media set up (it worked with Ventoy but not Rufus), mounting and giving permissions for all the internal drives and getting one of them added to Steam for installing games, and then pulse audio stuff for the speakers. The entire process took a couple hours because I hadn't done it before but now everything just werks. Linux is not easy and there will always be hiccups but I'm glad to finally be done with Windows. I haven't had to deal with programs becoming unresponsive for no apparent reason like on Windows so that's a huge plus.

Hey man, you don't really need to touch the terminal in Mint. You should though because it's one of the best features.

In fact when I installed Windows again for the first time in over a year, I open Windows terminal a lot. Windows terminal has some of the same commands like ls, cd, and so on, which was surprising. For many things it's more convenient to use the UI, but other times the terminal is really useful for performing operations on mass amounts of files in a folder etc, for example. Or running a program that gives terminal output of course.

No such thing as "learning the command line" on trannymint: Open software store, install browser, close software store
Otherwise, open your default browser already included in m*nt (Firefox, I assume), search for the browser you want to download there, download it
Not sure why anyone would want to download a compromised distro tho, seems indeed retarded from the start, therefore all mintards are...tards and prone to skill issues

you're completely missing the point. every thread that involves contrasting linux with other operating system has a conversation comparable to the greentext i posted.

Basically what I do on mint for many things. Well, some I just dropped the appimage and clicked it and it instantly worked, but usually it's not that fast and like what you describe. Flatpaks are neat.
For what I care on my personal machine(gaymes) Steam handles it so it's the same shit. Or the gog games installer which again same shit.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!
>>
>>107240059
>every thread that involves contrasting linux with other operating system has a conversation comparable to the greentext i posted.
I hope you'll allow me to doubt this, considering that both Mint and any other distro aimed at "newbies" eliminates the use of the terminal or the need to "learn the command line" unless, of course, you decide to change that yourself
I have never seen anyone on any forum (say, Zorin, Mint, or even here), or whatever else "noobs" use, suggest opting for 4000 complicated steps + building everything from source instead of simply using the pre-installed system tools that automatically take care of it
If you choose a retarded distro, people will assume yuo'ar retarded
If you choose a non-meme distro, which is what most anons here do and therefore one would assume the same from other users here, decent answers are often slightly more complicated than do A then get B. What's so strange or unacceptable about that?

Clickind the shield icon then "install updates" takes much time/effort? The thing that comes in linux mint pre-installed and setup?
Mate I use both linux and windows 11 both at their latest updates and updating is the exact same shit. Update manager shows notification, click update manager, click install updates.
Only notable difference is windows makes the system reboot immediatelly while linux just says "this won't take effect until the machine is rebooted" when it comes to kernel updates.

Complaints of ignoring the update manager? I mean, sure it doesn't scream "UPDATE NOW FUCKBOY REEEEEEE" but the icon still shows a notification symbol. What about it is so hard that an "overwhelming" number of people would complain about it?

The reason most people will stay with Windows is Microsoft knows they are too lazy and stupid to learn to use something as basic as Mint, which is filled with GUIs and purposely looks a lot like Windows. Windows can keep getting shittier, but their userbase is a captive one for all intents and purposes.
>>
>>107240415
I believe he's saying that when something doesn't "just werk" you need to use the command line.
Only instance I've had of this without going far out of my way was pipewire was getting carefully when the cpu was under moderately heavy load. So I had to use some terminal command to fix it. Eventually I just downgraded to pulse audio anyway. System is old so shit like that it's to be expected, but could be annoying or daunting to some people I guess.

This, the Linux barrier to entry is lower than ever, to the point where Windows 7 retards like me love it and never have to use the Terminal for anything other than to Neofetch which has nothing to do with anything you would use the computer for (cinnamon has ga-nome style system info)

People's brains are just rotted too far gone if they're thinking Linux is hard to use, it's so weird seeing Gen Z even acting like boomers where they're just allergic to using computers, not even because they can't ever figure out how to use it, but because "they don't do computers.

Kek it's amazing how Linux can be better in every way, and then people will be like "oh but it doesn't have closed source DRM software and games" It's like that's kinda the point, it's the libre way of doing things that prevents Linux from turning into garbage like Windows, if Windows users had open source access to their kernel, holy fuck could the NT based distros be amazing, you could have lightweight DEs running ontop of NT Kernel that aren't full of crap, you'd probably gain performance in gaming too if you didn't have all this crap going on in the background, but it will never happen for them if they stick with the windows mentality.

for clarity, it wasn't exactly a fresh install. It was a fresh install that I hadn't touched for years, and working around this scenario was fucked. sudo apt update, software package gui's, etc all didn't work for one reason or another. This is not the case on windows. if you log into a w10 machine after a few years later, shit just updates automatically.
in the case of my linux mint machine, it seems like i'd either have to have an in depth understanding of the OS, or I'd have to do another fresh install, which is retarded.

why do you care so much about people not using your precious LTSC? I know your IQ is below 80 and you can barely use a keyboard but the rest of us don't suffer from your mental handicap.

No one cares if you suck Gate's cum through a straw whilst loading up your LTSC but for some reason that's not good enough. You and your butt colony seem to want to change the social narrative on /g/

>why do you care so much about people not using your precious LTSC?
i don't care about whether you use it, i'm pointing out that linuxcopers constantly ignore it's existence.
it's linuxfags who are the ones who sperg about whether people use windows or not.
>iq, cum guzzling, something something
see? you are getting emotional and losing your mind over the topic.
>>
>>107241543
Linuxtards can't cope that a debloated LTSC just works and while admittedly far fron perfect it mostly just works. Way better than any Linux distro ever will for desktop use.

this is true. not even linux mint has reliable upgrades anymore.

fair point, but you also do not need the newest ryzen x3d cuck chiplets or intel biglittle cuck cores
but you're ignoring that even the latest linux kernel ALSO STILL has problems with scheduling these meme processors

picrel/LTSC/enterprise practically has very little of it after changing a handful of group policies at most, even so, outbound firewalling is simple and should be common sense

They hate the truth that linux is borderline unusable for normies
Things break often and to fix them you need to be technically educated
Windows and macos works out of the box.
And even if some person wants help when using linux they will be pointed to some unreadable manual
Linux users are smug and midwits who have too much time in their hands to play with their operating system
That's why no employed person prefers their shit OS

You can literally fit it with a few scripts.

Hi OP, sorry I have to assume that you are a Winjeet shill / loonix hater. Unless you give us more information, instead of malding for no reason. So why don't you tell us:

Maybe something else sucks, maybe you expect too much from a computer regardless of what operating system is on it,

Find another hobby, get a bicycle, or a drone, or remote controlled model racecar, touch grass

If you think that typing "pacman -S chromium" into a terminal is more difficult that typing "download chromium" into a browser, then clicking 2-3 links, then clicking through an install wizard, and then restarting your computer, you need to check your skin color because I think it's probably the most important part of this disagreement.

>it's an operating system, not a lifestyle
Problem is your lifestyle depends on a device that depends on an operating system. So you're forced to either make the operating system a part of your lifestyle, or you pay someone else to deal with that shit for you and hope they don't screw you over. Or you choose a new lifestyle for yourself, that doesn't depend on the device.

>>107233470
I dont get you faggots
First you complain about how tech being accessible for anyone ends up dumbing down the systems you employ, THEN you start shitting and pissing yourselves when any, ANY task requires some degree of technical expertise.
Yes, Windows is easier, of course, it's made for the lowest common denominator so that absolute mouth breathers can open their excel spreadsheet and even then they lose their fucking marbles when the icon is not on the desktop but on the menu, or fail ti find their files they just downloaded, or open the nth phishing email of the day.
So whats the fuss about it? Do you have so little free time that you cannot dedicate half an hour towards learning a couple useful skills, LIKE LEARNING THE FUCKING OS YOU ARE USING

In all seriousness, it's not usually the same people who complain about both things. The ones that do are just temporarily embarrassed tech geek wannabes, which is pretty sad since nerds suck and are gross.

It's not 1995 anymore. You don't even have to restart after updating drivers these days

how do you know to search for program on google, click on a legit looking website, find a download button, download it, run the installer, and click through the installer?

linux (mint) user here
I have never see an employed well adjusted high-earning person with a linux shitbox, it's always macs, I'm all for windows burning to the fucking ground but let's not pretend like this is some valid alternative if you actually do anything of value on your computer, aside from shitposting on 4chan and wasting time on other shithole websites
in the cs degree at uni plenty of overpriced windows cuckboxes, thinkpads (old and new) with linux, macs

Linux desktop is such a fucking trainwreck. You gamble on whatever distro you choose having all the drivers you need out of the box. If it doesn't, good fucking luck hunting down what you need especially if you chose a meme distro. Linux mint, ubuntu, and debian are the least likely to break but fuck they look godawful.
The standard for modern desktop operating systems is they just werk. If I was interested in tinkering I wouldn't pick a desktop computer to tinker with. Loonix doesn't meet this standard often enough to qualify as a modern desktop OS. Sneed.

I'm not having any issues, not with the base system (IceWM), in fact I'm even surprised I can play videos outside of Youtube on Firefox, when it wasn't possible before. The only issues I had were the lack of a text editor and file manager, and Yast helped it, along with the terminal.
