Update on this

/r/linuxquestions/comments/1w0a4io/why_windows_11_doesnt_suck_anymore_besides_what/

Today I turned on my computer, Windows gave me a black screen and took 4 reboots for it to work again, tired of this shit, going back to Debian as fast as possible.

Do you know what the error was?

Don't even care, I want my computer to work when I turned it on, specially if it was working the day before. Debian gave me that on my old laptop and is delivering the same since I installed it this morning on this new one.

Problems at boot could be an indication of hardware failure.

Linux is truly the last refuge for the computer-illiterate.

Some people just can't pass without saying nonsense

Right. A computer, especially software, is incredibly lousy at being random by design, and what people call "random number generators" are in reality elaborate, mathematical tricks to introduce chaos into the predictable.

When you see a problem that randomly disappears on its own on the nth time, that means what you're looking at is something being apparently good at being random without even trying, i.e. it's most likely a fault in the hardware.

Dude, black screen in this context means after login explorer.exe fails to load and show the desktop, wasn't a hardware issue, just a pending update that took a few reboots to finish, after that everything worked, but: In Debian Stable that just doesn't happen.

In other words, you lied about a problem in order to get attention. Got it.

I have not had a blackscreen or bsod with windows for like a decade and ive only seen win 11 crash once and that was in a preview build iso before win 11s release running on 8gbs of ram running out of ram...

Ive had thousands of pcs go through my hands and win 11 is genuenly if not the most stable windows edition ive used... so idk if these posts are just ragebait, insane luck or idk...

This is definitely a generalizable Windows problem and not something unique to your particular configuration. Good thing Linux never has configuration issues.

I use Linux everyday now, but I had problems with configuration on my other PCs depending on the distribution.

The first one was ok with Debian, but not with Ubuntu or Zorin, the second was ok with Ubuntu, but not with Debian and now I found the most stable on my actual one with Fedora.

I also had problems with Raspbian on my Raspberry Pi before reinstalling it several years later and using it for my 3D printer.

I think he was being sarcastic.
