Why does it keep getting worse?
It doesn't. The real question is why do so many losers keep trying to gaslight people into ditching windows for linux?
>>736526067Works on my machine.
Idk. It plays my pirated games and stuff and let's me change my background that's all I care about.
>>736526213Because Linux is currently shit and they want it to have a larger userbase so it gets fixed and is no longer shit.
>>736526067The short answer is Microsoft is currently so obsessed with AI that they'll make their operating systems unusable as long as it it contributes to AI development somehow.
>>736526067Because it's cheap and that pleases the investors
>>736526302Are you talking about copilot? because you can uninstall with one right click and one left click. Just fyi,
Come home.
>>736526213It does and if you pretend it don't, it will get worse and worse and worse.You need to give the impression you will give up computers and move to mobile if you want em to make Windows good again.
>companies and techbros alike start vibe-coding with LLMs>all consumer grade software gets way fucking worse really really quickly
>>736526067>Why does it keep getting worse?People still aren't very willing to use alternatives, so they have room to pressure users for money until they do.If linux starts getting large traction you can expect the quality of windows to mysteriously go up
I do not of being knowing saars
Steam Deckies can’t keep up with Microsoft’s power.
I use linux because i'm poor, it makes my 2200G with 16 GB of RAM and hard drive until a while ago much better to use, as Win10 and 11 will never, ever, EVER stop using the drive.If you're not poor, you can use Windows in an acceptable state, even good if you strip the fuck out of all the trash in it.But pretending it is not getting better will just make it worse for you.It will not make it worse for me because i use linux, but for you it will.You need to nag, scream, threat, and make microsoft stop doing shit.
>>736526067Why not?
It's deserved Windows only got big because of nepotistic shit with Melinda giving bill IBM deals and other corpos getting FOMOed

>>736526067Microsoft instituted a rule that at minimum 30% of all code written at Microsoft must be AI generated.
>>736526624You missed the third part>Those companies and all the AI fanboys try hard as fuck to gaslight you to believe AI code isn't really causing issues
>>736526213>saar, don't redeem the linux
Why do poojoos keep using it, I guess we're all expecting too much from the tech illiterate tards
>>736529238two more weeks next version will be better
I used Linux for a few months but switched to LTSC and have had literally zero issues.I feel like LTSC pretty much fixes most if not all problems people have with Windows.
>>736529238
>>736526428if i ever call it quits with windows then i'll probably be swapping to a mac mini.
>>736526213because the more people that use Linux the better it gets due to better support from vendors and battle testing etc.it's a no brainer, unironically if everyone used Linux the world would be better off because then the OS everyone uses would at least be incentive aligned with it's users.
>>736526067Try to debloat it with WinhanceOr try Windows 11 LTSC

If I’ve used windows since xp and am wanting to change ship what are some of the simplest user friendly Linux distros for me to research? looking for something that has good security and am not as concerned with it being compatible with a bunch of videogames. Something to just use to check email more or less for work or my bank/ health insurance bullshit. that just works. How does Linux browser security stack up against windows?

>>736526067Microsoft Windows is getting way worse. Everything about it sucks now, it use to be a very good operating system but it’s now pretty much stirfry. I remember loving Microsoft Windows, but now this is not the case. Windows has been totally ruined in recent years, which is a hard fact to accept because it started off great. What happened? All good things come to an end seemingly. What was once a great windows browser is now in shambles. I doubt they can ever fix the issues, it’s long past that point.
timmys mad us Indian BVLLS are taking their jobs and replacing them
i have a laptop with win11 on it, and all i've done with it is remove as much shit from it as possible, then power it on every couple weeks to update it, then immediately turn it off once that's finished.it's just such dogshit, it makes me not want to do anything with computers at all. its like you can see the old dying heart what windows was when you get further into settings, but then there's the completely different looking modern UI grotesquely surgically attached to it, siphoning away any remaining blood it can suck from the soon to be dead carapace.an abomination. an insult to people who've stuck with it for way too many years just because it's familiar.once my extended win10 updates are over, i'm out. fuck this

>>736526067works on my machine (not really)
>>736526067Windows has been on life support since 98. It getting worse is an obvious result of a company only interested in profits and not in improving their software.Bugs exist in windows that have been around since windows 95 for example. Absolutely disgusting when you actually think about it.
I grew tired of WindowsI've been using Windows since 98SE, and Linux on and off and on and off back and forth. And hackintosh for a whole year. This time instead of using linux for an extended period of time and then going back to Windows, I went back to Windows for a few days, found it was worse in too many ways, and had to actually go back to Linux. This is unprecedented. You don't know how much of a duckling I am. For windows to get this fucking bad it's something else.I'm even exploring the idea of getting a macbook. That's right, keeping my main machine as a gayming machine and using macOS for other general tasks. Mainly because there's a few things (specially productivity software) where I don't actually mind paying for some occasional program that works better than the FOSS alternative. I actually wish macOS had something like Proton but linux is king right now on that field.
>>736534232I wonder if they even think about what godly purpose the data they gather can be of before they steal it.
>>736526138its always this. Whenever you wonder "why is X so shit now?" its because of the same two tribes
has anything gotten better?
>>736538502No.
ai and jeets
Is Windows 10 still really that bad even if you use IoT LTSC? I have been using it with massgrave activation for over a year now and it is the closest experience I have to using 7 or XP sans the bare minimum telemetry shit I guess but I don't even know. IMO Windows will only be truly dead to me once they actually enforce mandatory MS account, monthly subscription and kill massgrave activation somehow.

>>736539541What makes you mad? Do you identify with that?
>>736539563Mad at the fact that I have to stop criticising something and instead prove I'm not part of the implied group. Like character attacks are suddenly acceptable when debating a subject.
>>736539563kek
>>736526067Apart from the AI bullshit, it's just a combination of an ancient codebase, where if you miss one line of XML and the whole OS breaks, and new technologies (e.g. React and web apps) being used where they don't really belong but chosen because of the shitty state of modern software development.I think their recent commitment to fixing everything with native code rewrites is a step in the right direction, but it may be too late.
>>736539612>I'm mad I got caughtkek
10 LTSC works just as well as 7/xpMaybe I'll have to switch to cachy or something when support ends, or maybe windows 12 will be better. I only play OSRS and New Vegas anyway.

>>736526213linux sux and are for trannies but winshit sux harder
>>736540128>Hell no8.1 didn't introduce:;-Cortana-Endless telemetry-Forced update restarts-A half assed overhaul of settings panels (removing features in the process)-Updates you couldn't select-Automatic updates you could not permanently disable-Unremovable apps-Apps that install themselves automatically every now and then-Like you said, really inconsistent UI-Broken updates every half a year that would also break any custom changes to the UI-Forced Windows Defender-A UI that made VMs with the OS unusableYou've been living under a Windows 7 rock until your beloved LGBT version came out. Even that one had stupid shit like "oh you assigned that file extension to that program but it's now gone, you have to do it again" or "your OS is using a specific language, but your keyboard is a different one, so we need to add 2 keyboard layouts and if you remove one of them, eventually we'll add it back again". 10 was thorough trash. You could remove most grievances from 8.1 by just doing one fucking thing (installing classic shell).
>>736540404>Automatic updates you could not permanently disableWhy retards keep saying that, even after all those years? There are several methods of disabling Windows Update, most safe and the one MS RECOMMENDED TO USE HOLY SHIT was using proper settings in Group Policy editor. Same tool where you could also set target version of Windows, preventing any future feature updates.But noooo, Mr Tech Expert suddenly cannot read fucking MS own manual.
>>736526138FPBP. Shocking universal truth.
>>736530585Why use 11 at all? If you must use windows use 7 or 10 ltsc. There is literally zero advantage to 11.
>>736526067Because microdick thought they had indisruptable monopoly and can allow themselves push whatever shit they released down everyone's throat. They were half right.Most things these days get worse because from the corporate point of view, why make it better? It's more expensive and cattle might start asking uncomfortable questions like "can't this be better too?". Funny thing, people can get used to things getting worse, and when it becomes expected, they're more likely to accept the change as part of the course. Of course there's a certain threshold at which people might just say fuck this shit and leave for better pastures, but our great marketing brains are determined to find the lowest acceptable marge in this equation.
>>736526213The other day I wasn't allowed by the OS to install a program to a folder on one of my drives. No, it wasn't a special drive, it wasn't a special folder.It ran the installer and reported it was done, but no files were in the folder.Why?Windows had for some odd reason decided, seemingly out of the blue, that I did not have the privileges necessary to modify files on that drive.Having encountered similar, I used the nifty tool that quickly changes the ownership of a folder through registry-edit for a folder and ran that program. >saar you were not of the administerYes I was and I am.Windows will just randomly decide that you no longer have ownership of various folders.
>>736540404>appsyou deserve it
>>736540490Because for 2 years that was the default, you stupid goof. You'd see that unless you went and explicitly go look how to disable it.When was it ok to have to use the GPE to disable something they should let you disable through the windows update settings, by the way? Why would you defend this fucking cancer? The very reason versions like Ameliorated existed (and were half broken as a result) was because this trash of an OS wouldn't work properly when updates were actually, legitimately permanently disabled. Fully. FU LLY. God you revisionist loonies piss me off.
>>736540670I've also encountered that sort of thing. It's fucking weird. Easy to fix if you know what you are doing but it shouldn't happen at all.
>>736540395That's why I dualboot.I see it as a learning experience in case that Microshart utterly collapses
>>736526067because you keep buying games that require """"""""""""""""""upgrades""""""""""""""""""" due to developer laziness
>>736540717Yeah sent you the fix.
>>736526213saar I redeemed saar
>>736526067I already stopped using it when it started getting worse (when Windows 10 was released) so I really don't give a shit about it.
Microsoft is evil
>>736540775Or hardwareAMD and Nvidia stop releasing drivers for older versionsNew displays have "gimmicks" that only work well on newer versions of WindowsSome CPUs as wellMore and more shit comes out with the expectation that you have the latest OS
>>736540684Option I described was available from the start, you mouth breathing retard. And why it was made that way? Because since XP era MS was tired of dealing with thousands upon thousands of complaining about shit they already long time fixed with patches/etc because "hurr durr I'm tech expert and disable da updates!". If you are smart enough to read the fucking manual (you are not), you could be trusted to be able to disable those, you single digit IQ idiot.
>>736540684Not him but pre-10 Windows has CTRL+Space hardcoded as the switch input shortcut that couldn't be disabled even with registry edit.That shortcut no longer exist on W10 which is WELL worth the hassle of having to fiddle with group policy.
>>736526067They know they are the default OS so they don't give a shit. The fuck are you gonna do, switch over to Linux? Enjoy half your games not being compatible, and normalfags don't want to bother with any semi-complex setup. So you either stay or downgrade to the Apple ecosystem
>>736539680>10 LTSC works just as well as 7/xpNo it fucking doesnt
>>736541064>Windows retard still mentally stuck in 2010It's 2026 anon. Both Linux and macOS are significantly superior to Windows in pretty much every single aspect that matters.
>>736540975>Because since XP era MS was tired of dealing with thousands upon thousands of complaining about shit they already long time fixed with patches/etc because "hurr durr I'm tech expert and disable da updates!".Well they sure did a good job with their updates that would break shit like "oh whoops, my start button isn't opening the start menu anymore" "oh whoops, I now have an update boot loop and I cannot get out of it" "oh whoops, I booted into the desktop and now there's only a mouse cursor on screen and it's all black". Even with Vista I didn't have as many people bother me for some stupid shit like this that was actually introduced through updates. Maybe you don't remember this, but 10 was practically forced upon people "for free!" when it came out. People were actively looking for the updates that enabled the fucking popup and the automatic update to that OS. Many normalfags were clueless about this, updated it and it was a fucking disaster.
>>736541048It doesn't fucking matter. You can disable that, you can never press ctrl+space, and it will return. What's worse, it'll show only one keyboard layout entry, so you have to add the keyboard layout you don't want and remove it for it to disappear, so it's definitely a bug.The best thing about that bug being introduced is that it hasn't even been fixed. You can still have this problem on fucking W11.
>>736526067Sirs?
>>736541096It actually works better for me, once debloated
>>736541096I use it, and it does work without issues.You might be just fucking retarded. Go back to Mac, it's cut for retards.
>>736540967you don't need to update your drivers you fucking retard
>>736541436I'm talking about newer hardware you fagwaffleYou need updates for those because hardware nowadays comes out in fucking early access state, you never know when you're getting a fucking BSOD for no good reason and it turns out that it's a driver thing.Hell some newer laptops are basically Windows 11 only, you go back to W10 and it's just too much of a fucking chore to get shit to work. Might as well use linux on those
i only use 11 on one machine at because some software that we're using requires it (using it on 10 causes a memory leak for some reason)its unbelievable how sluggish 11 feels
>>736541303Yeah sure, if you actually used it for games you'd notice it having worse compability with older games, and no matter how many of you jeets go with the "debloat" thing. The OS is still shit. Photo viewer can hang easily, startup times difference wildy between systems (pre build Lenovo toaster is booted in 20 seconds, far stronger rig takes 3 fucking minutes)
Looks like troonix users need their daily reminder.

>>736526067>reach actual peak of what is practical and needed by 99.99% of people who use computers>run out of legitimate ways to improve it>still have to keep changing shit anyway to justify new versions and keep money coming inThis is your brain on consumerism. There is no profit in making things that "just work", don't break easily, and last a long time. Operating systems stopped needing to "get better" somewhere between Windows XP Service Pack 3 and Windows 10, and it's hard to say precisely when and where the top was, but what is certain is that Windows is not improving in ways that justify stronger hardware or new versions.Shit keeps getting more and more bloated with no end in sight despite the average person's computer needs being adequately met with a PC from 2010 fitted an average quad core processor, 4GB of ram, and a discrete 512MB VRAM graphics card.Things get stronger and bigger, but they are used for the wrong purposes. Take a look at phones. I want an "adequate" phone that gets weeks of battery life (of actual USAGE) on a single charge, and we are "there" in terms of hardware and have been for years now, yet battery life stays the same or gets worse while phones get thinner and phone OSs/user experiences don't improve in practical ways.

"Windows" as an OS is completely irrelevant for 99.99% of games out there. You can already run almost all Windows games on Linux and a ton of games were made playable on Android through WINE as well. It'll only be a matter of time for Harmony to make their own variant of WINE just like they did with their Android compatibility layer.The way software development is progressing is towards compatibility layers and containers. The underlying OS running your software is increasingly becoming less relevant each decade.

>>736530105
>>736548031Our hardware has become fast enough to allow multiple abstraction layers to run software. You'd be surprised how many abstraction layers and security features exist in Windows and especially Android and iOS which theoretically reduce the performance, but the hardware is just too fast for it to matter.The way software development has worked for the past decade has been that there's a bunch of framework developers providing a dev framework doing all the heavy lifting, which is then used by application/game developers.The devs behind Unity, Unreal, Godot, or the devs behind web browsers, or the devs behind backend runtimes are doing all the heavy lifting. The actual game or software developer is only concerned with the in-app/in-game/backend logic and nothing else.In future you'll probably have software running in containers. We already have this as a standard on Linux. Flatpak Runtime (and Snap) is a miniature Linux distro running inside your Linux OS and you run your software inside that. WINE and Proton are just Windows containers/environments running games inside them. Steam Linux Runtime is just a Linux distro container running Linux native games inside itself instead of running games truly natively on your actual Linux OS. Linux servers have been using stuff like Docker for a decade now, nothing runs natively. A ton of Linux users are separating their work or hobby into isolated Distrobox containers.That's just the most efficient and frictionless way to run software. And in the end the user only cares if something works. You having to do manual work to make a game or an app run natively would just result in the bugs getting fixed slower and users getting features they want at a slower pace.Having a container eliminates any issues that would be caused by a misconfigured OS or incompatible libraries or library versions.

It's currently only 5 years old and is effectively a ChromeOS and Android replacement, or a Windows/macOS replacement viable for most people. It already has over 300k apps ported to it and can run Android apps as well. Although the current version has dropped built-in Android support and you need an emulator akin to Waydroid on Linux.

>>736548714Open source software is also commonly distributed this way, anon. If you want to compile shit yourself then feel free to do so. But most people want the most frictionless experience possible, which containers will provide in the future and cross-platform frameworks and compatibility layers provide currently.
>>736548750>you believe microsoft is in a position to force all the motherboard and cpu manufacturers to tighten the noose?anon, they just forced full-disk encryption, TPMs, and secure boot down everyone's throats with windows 10 and 11. all they have to do is flick a switch (blacklist their 3rd party CA so the shim bootloader stops accepting machine-operator keys) and everyone's fucked

Computers and consoles have plateaued by the early to mid 2010s, especially in terms of things like graphics, computational power for an entry to mid level PC. But these corporations only seek profit at the expense of consumer loyalty and making a good product so they churn out garbage and fix the problems they made and charge you for it along the way. It's just the end result of MBAs taking over these corporations through shady political maneuvering and bribes as opposed to the engineers and other experts who worked their way up the cursus honorum, learned what makes their company so great and how to properly treat their loyal customers and plan to keep it that way for the forseeable future.

>>736547258Why would anyone use Macs to game?

Thanks for reminding me. Just booted to Win11 for the first time in a year to uninstall my Steam library that I have installed on the Linux side anyway. 300 gigs saved.
>why is it getting worseBecause Windows was never their main source of income. It's bundled together with XBOX and other "personal computing" for a reason. They never cared about it so now they woke up and jeets at the top wants to turn it into a service, ad-based, AI-based slop for profit.
>>736552161The problem is that, as a Windows user, you simply aren't the administrator. You can have elevated privileges if and when the operating system allows it, but at the end of the day, Microsoft is the admin.Meanwhile, on Linux (except SteamOS and similar immutable systems that are designed not to allow persistent changes to root folders), you are the system administrator.All this arguing Windows vs Linux is ultimately a stupid waste of time, because it's very simple: If you want to be the system administrator of your own computer, then you'll be happier on Linux, and if you don't or if you only want to LARP as such, then you'll be happier on Windows. Different operating systems for different kinds of people. And that's okay.

>>736552978he never said that, though. just that if there is the need to run that stuff, you can, while in windows you have to fight the OS and do workarounds in registry/CMD/powershell, which is ironic when you consider people crying about linux because you have to sometimes use the terminal for some things when in windows its worse, its just that they hid it really well from most users
>>736552978No I don't. Why would I do that?Being a system administrator doesn't mean deliberately removing all security.
>>736552692NTA but from my experience it's basically like this: if you need OS for very specific task and want to tinker with it, you pick up Linux distro of choice that is most suited for the task, if you want things to "just work", you pickup Windows. I tried Linux before, during studies, and found out that I have way too frequently switch to Windows to do actual work without neverending troubleshooting.
>>736552692yeah but limiting the driver store folder? the user installs the fucking drivers and it wont let you touch them unless you go through their humiliation ritual or clean install.
>>736553117>>736553186The problem is that, as a Linux user, you simply aren't the administrator. You can sudo if and when the operating system allows it, but at the end of the day, the kernel is the admin.

>>736553758Very annoying that it says "total" and not "average" FPS. Personally I use Linux not necessarily because it's faster, but because pretty much all distros are way less bloated and force fewer things on you.
>>736552296I hope you realize Linux performs objectively faster than Windows in almost every single task. The CPU performance on Linux is consistently 5% better than it is on Windows. The disk read/write speeds are also significantly better on ext4 compared to ntfs.The main performance hit Linux has is on nVidia GPUs when it comes to playing most games, but gaming and nVidia are effectively a niche in the overall desktop market. Intel and AMD combined hold 80% of the GPU market share on PCs.>>736553758The problem is that this isn't applicable to most gamers. I assume this is an AMD or Intel device, but according to Steam 75% of gamers use nVidia GPUs. Every youtube video comparing Windows vs Linux performance consistently shows 5%-25% performance dips on Linux when nVidia is used as the GPU.
>>736554740why can't njudea just do things right? do they fear the goyim will flash their geforce cards into quadros or something?
>>736555027nVidia is the company which manually disabled GPU passthrough options in the firmware of their consumer grade GPUs because they wanted companies to buy Quadro GPUs. Home users who wanted to pass an nVidia GPU to their virtual machine guest operating systems (for Windows VM gaming before WINE/Proton were good) needed to rip firmware out of their GPUs, edit it in order to delete the line of code saying "brick this GPU if it detects being in a VM", then flash the non-pozzed firmware back to the GPU.
>>736552692>Want OS to just be a functional default without needing to be their live-in IT guyIt's sad that Windows hasn't been functional for that purpose since XP.>>736555027Literally yes. They still sell enterprise cards that are mostly identical to consumer cards minus a massive upcharge, more capability and a better warranty. Something like vGPU is possible on consumer cards, it's just locked.A lot of companies maintain Linux airgaps because they know that someone will have a usecase that results in them creating software that will dismantle their bullshit business model based on some degree of ecosystem lock-in.

>>736555027novidya stopped being a consumer/gamer gpu company ever since the crypto boom.10 years ago they pivoted to making their gpus for crypto mining which caused a fuck ton of mid-sized companies to order bulks of 1k-10k gpus every few months. I was in a relatively small company which was in the industry of both crypto mining and cloud compute rental and we had 200k consumer grade nvidia gpus back in 2022.5 years ago the new hype was AI, so nvidia pivoted to that. I assume the same companies that were crypto mining and renting gpu compute are now renting compute for AI or hosting their own AI services.gamers are entirely irrelevant to nvidia aside from gamers using OEM devices which use nvidia hardware, like the Switch. it's the same reason why gpus have been so expensive in the past 8 years, you're competing with actual companies since consumer grade gpus are good enough for corporate use.it's not like nvidia was ever good anyway. their amd+nvidia hybrid laptops were all fucking dogshit and you were stuck with either terrible battery life or being unable to adjust the screen brightness.

>>736557130Microsoft can be as monopolistic as they want, but if you continue putting up and paying their bullshit, they won't do shit to try and lure people back, that's why it keeps getting worse and they keep ignoring user's feedback.Plus, directx and devkits won't make the game purposefully block itself from running on other operating systems, it's the developers themselves making the decision to purposefully not release their applications and games into those operating systems.There's quite literally zero reasons why bf 6 can't run on macos or linux, they just purposefully block the game from running, same shit with other games with anticheats, M$ isn't making them do this, they do it out of their own accord.If linux's got 10% marketshare like mac had at some point, we could see actual ports of shit being made, but if people just put up and cope with all the garbage windows is and does, nothing will change.
>>736557304Fuck Microsoft Copilot. Copilot wants to empty the Copilot, fill our streets with Copilot, and run a Copilot-making operation out of his Copilot.
>>736557130User retention means they're doing something good. If you're being retained as a user that means you either like or are neutral to what they're doing. So yes, it's your fault. Leave the platform and have others do the same. Microsoft won't care about what they're doing unless they actually start bleeding users and developers.
>>736526067When I was on windows 10 I would often pray every night before bed for my GPU drivers to crash so hard I would need to turn off my power supply. Thankfully Microsoft answered my prayers with 11 and now it happens every other day.
>>736557664>yes just convince the rest of the goyim to stop consuming at exactly the same timethat's not how it works faggot. if the gas station stops offering diesel you don't start yelling at others to stop driving cars and switch to bikes until you get what you want
>>736557664The main competition for Windows is Mac OS, which is so awful most people won't buy it. Windows has the very low standards of being more enticing than an Apple OS. It's nice that you're trying to get people to switch to Linux. It still has the problem that some of the very few people who do try Linux will end up deciding they'd rather use Windows.
>>736558137>very fewsee >>736547109
>>736534898>it's just such dogshit, it makes me not want to do anything with computers at allI feel exactly the same way.
>>736557995Except the difference is that Windows, Linux and macOS are car brands. And unlike a car, there's no financial investment in switching operating systems (aside from the obvious macOS). Besides, nobody is saying you need to convince everyone to move. Starting with yourself should be enough. I've already influenced and helped 5 people to switch to Linux a couple of years ago.>>736558137What makes macOS "awful" from your perspective? I always see people claim things are "awful" without ever using the thing they're shitting on.I've used it for a few of months on their M2 laptop and I found it to be much better than Windows 10/11. Significantly so, in fact. Especially when it came to software development. Not to mention the performance and battery life compared to Windows laptops at the time. There's parts of it I dislike, but then again it's difficult to beat the KDE Plasma and Linux experience which I prefer over anything else.Also, I expect macOS to get more popular now that they've released a more budget option (Macbook Neo). The youth will be a lot more macOS/Android/Linux-oriented than current adults.

>>736526067smelly jeets
>>736526428i thought the pingu was linux
take all these worthless jeets, and then give them "vibe coding". now they can only make a program with claude or whatever. any critical bug they dont know how to fix.also, jeets only hire other jeets. repeat times infinity.
>>736558656I get annoyed very quickly because things like the icons on the dock and the File Edit View whatever bar makes it feel like a movie OS trying to look kind of like what someone assumes a computer should be. Even pushing past that, often programs only have a Windows version so you have to find an Mac compatible compromise version. I was making an application for Mac OS. I grew to hate using it in the process.

>>736560798we could have 1 or 2 scripts that optimize things (disable all data sharing, configure firewall, configure group policy, disable unnecessary services and programmed tasks), but it goes against microshaft's bottom line, so they keep resetting settings and breaking stuff each update to prevent that
>>736526428Hehe based!
>>736561810You already have Windows Ameliorated project which provides you with all this.
>>736541781Works on my machine
>>736560798>PCs are a mess to work withAbsolutely false. PCs are fine, especially if you pick hardware with open source drivers, and run a modern UNIX based OS.Microsoft's legacy VMS clone is the problem.>>736561993Again, that is false. A portion of Microsoft's built-in Malware is at the NT Kernel level, and there is nothing any end-user can do about it.
You know what to do.
>>736526213Been using loonix for over a year as my daily driver and it's better in every way. I play vidya, write code, and write documents
>>736562709>A portion of Microsoft's built-in Malware is at the NT Kernel levelLike what? Where's the proof? Why not block the network traffic since running malware which can't communicate to a remote server is benign anyway?
>>736542198>>736542363I'm not a coder, I only have basic knowledge about coding languages and I could feel the second hand pain. No wonder MS is dedicating a team to entirely rewrite W11's code from the ground up, this shit reached the boiling point and AI only threw a whole bottle of oil into the pot, label included.
>Want to switch to Linux but the anticheat on my gacha is incompatible.I'm stuck between a jew and a hard kippah.

>>736562971Bully the shitty company into making it work.
>>736562971dual boot and move over as much as you can
>>736562862Sure hypothetically you can disconnect the system from the network and not allow it any remote access. But what benefit does that disconnected copy of Windows 11 have for running single player games compared to using a GNU/Linux based OS?You still have to deal with the fact NT is a fundamentally slower platform, and Microsoft's win32 solution has suffered from a lack of attention and is now often not as good as Wine based solutions.>running malware which can't communicate to a remote server is benign anywayNot necessarily, Malware can keep running information gathering for when it gets a connection, and constant attempts to contact remote control servers can tax system resources.
>>736562971Switch to a gacha which works on Linux, like Genshin. The only language companies speak is money.
>>736559794Windows 11 Paint is noticeably different from older versions. It's still not any good, and I can't imagine anyone wanting to make an image in it helped by AI.
Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2021 is amazing.see you faggots in 2032
>>736526428i will when STEAMOS comes out alongside anticheats for Battlefield and COD works on linux
>>736526219This, my windows pc has been up and running for 35 days nonstop so far no prob.
>>736563836Move to Bazzite and quit torturing yourself
Windows 10 LTSC is debloated as hell and you have to download all the Windows/Microsoft apps that's already installed for regular Windows 10 edition.
>>736526213I've never dealt with Windows crashes until I got a PC with 11 on it, and now I get them constantly.
>>736526067Because people keep using it and have been trained that its the normal pc operating system.
Been on Linux for a year now and overall shit just works. There's some small things that I simply haven't tried to fix, like numlock turning off after login. I've had one game that took me a while to get running(Dragon's Dogma 2), but that was because steam carried over some config from my windows install that tried to load mods that weren't installed anymore.Meanwhile the windows PC at the office shits itself every day. Constantly spending multiple minutes booting/shutting down without any user feedback, requires hard shutdowns after updates, explorer just freezes sometimes, and so on. Internet connection has been spotty at the office lately and somehow going offline causes the taskbar to freeze and eventually the fucking desktop to crash. And I'm still on fucking 10, 11 appears to suck so hard even my non-technical boss is bitching about it day and night.>>736562971It's a gacha, have you tried an android emulator or windows VM?
>>736563973isnt bazzite the one thats taking in peoples personal info thus making the move to linux retarded to begin with because its the exact same as windows?
>>736564141No Bazzite is the one that's just SteamOS except you can install it
>>736564141>isnt bazzite the one thats taking in peoples personal infono, they just check how many users are using it so they can stroke their shit over line go up

>>736565213>Basically make a distro like Windows XP and everyone will be happy.What's the most WXP-like distro that's for modern computers and nvidia?
>>736564432He totally should be hung from his inverted micropenis either it snatches or stretches; eitherway it will be a quick and painful death for him.
>>736565315I don't know, I wish I did. I'm going to have to find out soon though
>>736565213>it isn't more of a pain in the ass to use than windowsThis was already true a few years ago. Windows started being an insufferably painful to use OS ever since Windows 10. And the UX on Windows hasn't evolved since Windows 7 so it's now a much more painful OS to use than Linux, macOS or even fucking Android.>>736565315What do you mean by "XP-like"?>UITrinity desktop environment (pre-installed on Q4OS) kind of looks like XP. But it's not "modern". It lacks shit like VRR, HDR, etc. since it uses X11 instead of Wayland.>UI, but slightly betterLinux Mint with Cinnamon or Xfce. But these suffer the same issue as Trinity, just to a lesser extent since they're more popular DEs so they have some rudimentary Wayland support.Realistically the only 2 modern DEs Linux has are KDE and GNOME, so you should use any distro with either of those two. Those two combined are the most popular DEs with 90%-95% of users and developers using one of those two.>I just want an OS that stays out of my way like Windows XP didLiterally any distro.Try Bazzite first and move to others from there if you're unhappy with it. Or start with ZorinOS if you have a severe baby duck syndrome.

Hop on Linux
>>736567456Im assuming youre talking about shit like deb and rpm files? Just because something uses the linux kernel doesnt mean that everything is going to work exactly the same across all distributions. Debian uses .deb and Fedora uses .rpm. Its not really worth complaining about because youll rarely even encounter any of those anymore since you can just flatpak (which IS universal across distros) or install everything with your package manager. Linux doesnt really rely on prepackaged installers like windows and macos.
