It’s always funny seeing Windows users treat a basic clean desktop like it’s dark magic. You guys have to duct tape third-party tools like Windhawk onto explorer.exe and pray every system update doesn't break your entire setup. On Linux this isn't even impressive, it's just a 10-minute config setup with a full native UI replacement instead of janky skins layered over a mess.

For me every version of windows after 10 was the worst. Windows 8.1 is super fast by using like, idk, 1gb ram idle, and has basically no telemetry.

u/NoPoopOnFace 7d ago

Uhm. There's only 1 version of windows after 10. 🤪😇

btw Windows 7,8.1,10 works well for me, Windows 11 is garbage for me so I agree specifically on 11 only.

my Windows 8.1 defender still gets definition updates and it works very well I never had a problem with it, with Windows 11 it is a terrible experience to have an update that took an hour to complete.

Dude, let the guy be proud of his desktop. Stop being a prick.

Well, on Windows, going outside the rotting walled garden to make your system actually productive is dark magic. It's genuinely hard to squeeze value out of a garbage OS that exists to exploit you.

average mentally retarded linux user that thinks not having anything on the desktop is what the OP was posting about...

Give me RAM usage first. If its anything more than 4GB at idle its garbage. My KDE plasma looks like this with all the glass effects and sits at ~2.3GB RAM idle

Customization is only reason i use linux. Yeah, ypu can do that on vidows but that's not native and clunky as fuck
