Linux: Not even a real desktop OS, it's basically a SaaS product that allows you to put together your own OS, lots of maintenance issues and time-wasting. Also a lot of gaslighting from the community with phrases like "Just use y instead of x."Windows: A joke at this point, with 10 it has turned into a "telemetry" hub and now with 11 it has a UI performance worse than Ubisoft games.MacOS: Hardware-exclusive OS. Also, similar privacy policy with Windows.
>>108702292Japan literally feels like that photo sometimes. After being there twice, I can catch no many Japanese nuances in it
>>108702292>Linux: lots of maintenance issues and time-wastingThis hasn't been true for like a decade at this point. Just install Mint and get on with your life
>>108702474this. my tech-retarded mom uses mint, few clicks to install, revived her laptop and she's never had to ask me to do anything with itthese low effort posts should be permabanned
>>108702633because she probably doesn't step outside of the browser, if you're doing anything other than web browsing or playing steam games it's still a total shitshow and borderline unusable.
>>108702474HAHAHAHA>Also a lot of gaslighting from the community with phrases like "Just use y instead of x."A few moments later:>Just install Y and stop complaining>>108702633Mint? You mean that thing derived from "Debian-derived Ubuntu" and also forces you to use Cinnamon DE which has no input isolation, which is a huge security and privacy flaw, because they are still working on Wayland support and Wayland will become default only after 2028?
>>108702661Also, Debian > Ubuntu > Mint packages are STA'b'LE. You try to install neovim and they offer you a version from 18 months ago which won't work with a lots of plugins.
Home computing is pretty much dead at this point. Or circling the drain soon to be dead.Everyone in the real world just uses their phones or a tablet for anything they're doing. The only ones still holding onto computers and laptops are older generations.
>>108702714Use a distro with Wayland then? I don't see how a Linux distribution is SaaS unless you're that one retard who always bitches about "repo slavery" then yes that makes sense you'd say that. >I have to use THE INTERNET to DOWNLOAD software!I'd tell you to buy the following 27 DVDs but you'd just cry about someone telling you to use something else.https://www.shoplinuxonline.com/debian13-full.html
>>108702718>toy for toddlers to pretend that they are using a real computer.
>>108702292In the end the only problem is that modern hardware/software don't support Windows 7 anymore.
>>108702292I think Mac is winning the race, Valve and/or China may save linux
>>108702661>t. cant figure out how to use a software storengmi>>108702727this isnt something normies care about, and if youre not a normie you know how to get newer anyway
>>108702714>huge security and privacy flawthis is a nothingburger, you're just autistic
>>108702292xdddd
>>108704640This actually makes another good point about why it's so terrible: app stores/package repos are an awful distribution model that restricts user freedom. >but you can compile from sourceyeah I can, not some normoid though so you're effectively locking them into your curated ecosystem, no better than android or apple.
>>108704300Valve doesn't care about linux as a general computing platform, they want it as a game delivery system. I do love how freetards are looking to corpos to save them.
>>108704972>app stores/package repos are an awful distribution model that restricts user freedomare you retarded? you can still find most major software with linux ports online as .deb filestroll is troll
>>108702736Anyone doing real work needs at least a laptop.
>>108705029>.debdistro specific, not sure how that's supposed to help your point
>>108702292amiga was so cool, THIS IS XENOXXX97 WITH ANOTHER EDITION GREETINGS TO L33T33,GR4XMAN,FXUYU,MAZWEKL,N1663R92 AND ALL MY FAMILY SEE YOU ON WEST COAST 97' SPECIAL THANKS TO RUPP70R,S70PPER,FR0GGGS AND EVERYONE ELSE, ALSO TO ROGGER,FENIXKILLER THIS BASTARD LIAR STOLE MY A500 WHILE I WAS TRIPPING WITH LSD SO I HAD TO WAIT FOR 3 MONTHS FOR THIS RELEASE BUT ITS FINALLY HERE, SEE YOU ALL IN ST. MOD STREET SEPTEMBER 88, THIS IS SHAREWARE IF YOU LIKE IT SEND ME 20 DOLLARS TO FUCKERSTREER 969, LA
>>108702292>Hardware-exclusive OSWhat is a hackintosh
>>108702292The first thing that is required for a SaaS to be called a SaaS is... it makes profit. No one actually pretends Linux is an OS. That's confusion made by normies
>>108705079i was talking about mint, which supports .deb. most linux users are on ubuntu which also supports .debmy point is you can still find install binaries for other distros through other sources than repos, .AppImage is very common now and not distro-specificthanks for the uhm akshually you dolt
Operating systems made for home environments were a mistake. Computers should've stayed in professional workspaces, not in some random normie retard's bedroom.You're now seeing the consequences of bringing technology where it was never meant to exist.
>>108702292What did you think Linux was prior
>>108702292Haiku meets your criteria.
>>108702292Operating systems were a mistake, return to machine code monitor.
>>108705012The only good FOSS projects are those backed by corps.
>>108707463I completely agree, but it totally goes against the mindset of a lot of anti-capatalist freetards.
bsd's exist still need to know what youre doing if you desire a rebrand
>>108705079>distro specificWatch this:https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=google-chromeYes, that's right. All this package is doing is unpacking the official Google Chrome .deb and using it on Arch. You can just do that. This is how thousands of Arch users install Chrome on their systems.Repo slavery status?
>>108702292SaaS deserves all the hate it gets but you're clearly just using it as an insult without the slightest clue what it actually means.
>>108702661>a total shitshowoh come on, anon
>>108703617Windows 7 was the perfect thing.
