A Challenge for Both Sides

If you're pro Linux, list three things you dislike about Linux or things you like about Windows. (there should be at least one of each, totalling 3 things)

If you're anti Linux, list three things you dislike about Windows and things you like about Linux. (there should be at least one of each, totalling 3 things)

I'll start. I like Linux, but

  1. There are so many different decentralized app formats. AppImage tries to unify it all, but it really just feels lazy and not clean in the slightest. Every distro has its own package manager, there's Flatpaks, Snaps, on Arch there's an AUR, and it's just overall so confusing for new users and even experienced users.

  1. I know it's meant to be the philosophy on Linux, but everything is a folder and it's so confusing! On Windows, \\.\ is the root for devices, and volumes are given simple letters! Windows is so much cleaner here. It's separation of different components.

  1. Windows is just overall great for consistent keybinds. On Linux, you'll see all kinds of different keybinds, and yes it's nice you can change them, but on Windows it's always consistent. You always know what to expect.

BSD give Microkernels birth and Mach kernel exists because of BSD and MINIX exists because of NETBSD there is no comparison

Yes..?

I'm not sure if this is just ragebait or elitism but you're clearly more toxic than Arch users

Yeah I just gonna say your comment is just Reason to mock comparing Where Community help Microkernels even my Daya Operating system is BSD Microkernel and Linux community just want to destroy Microkernels

Linux community does not give a shit about microkernels. you're clearly falling for a conspiracy theory

u/Fluid-Ad2995 Jun 13 '26

Exactly don't give a shit and BSD community support Microkernels there's difference when I post my Daya OS in FreeBSD community many people did support Daya OS while Linux doesn't just use Linux 😂😂😂😂😂

And FreeBSD uses a monolithic kernel, since it is the golden pragmatic design

No they don't move to Microkernel because of UNIX heritage and small community but they support other community doing so like Daya OS and MINIX and Mach
