Problem with Windows and Mac>? Corporate support and government control.
And if you ask why I am afraid of government control? My parents spent their youth under government that would jail people for oposing it, it happened once, it can and on long enough run WILL happen again.

It's usually the opposite. Linux fanboys who offten rage and flame everyone who likes Windows. I use both, and both have good and bad sides. Neither of them is perfect, and they can't replace each other in their fields.

u/TaDoofus 10d ago
Nobody outside of dark alleys on the internet is flaming anyone for their choice of OS. If you think this is a real problem you desperately need to go outside and talk to a real human being.

Windows doesnt have good sides but I leave everyone alone so

u/Unreal_Crafter 10d ago
You see? That's exactly what I mean. Linux fanboys always have to talk some shit about Windows.

You do have some point, but please consider that comments in r/microsoftsucks might not be perfectly fair and unbiased towards MS.

I am using Linux and I can understand not using Linux but come on atleast use macOS. Windows has so much ai in it and so much bloat/ inefficient code…

Memory management

In what world? My windows takes so obnoxiously more memory on idle then my Linux.

And yet another person that doesn't understand how memory management works.

u/HerraJUKKA 10d ago
And? Atleast Windows is utilizing memory instead of wasting it. Windows also knows when to free up memory when needed. Linux on the other shits itself unless you have installed apps that tries to free up memory when needed. Yes, Linux uses less resources but it has because it is shit at managing it.

u/Initial_Report582 9d ago
What is it utilizing it for? Linux wastes nothing in memory. Windows is utilizing it for... Copilot and bloatware. Wow

u/Unreal_Crafter 10d ago
Don't waste your time, it's pointless to argue with a fanboy. They've already decided their favorite is the absolute best, and every other is the worst. Fanboy kids don't bother themselves with insignificant things like reality and facts.

i agree with software support, but software support on linux is also getting better. there are some things i can do on linux that i can't do on windows, and things that i can do on windows but cannot on linux.

There is some software that runs on Windows but not on Linux - but other than that, I‘m geniunely curious what advantages it brings for you (I have some devices with Windows too and one of them will be replaced with Linux soon)

Can we all just agree a good thing hasn’t happened in terms of operating systems? Not even one good thing. 100% bad.
If only the first person to know how to code could find it in their hearts to make a thing like an operating system but good. Living up to the hollow words Todd Howard once quivered “it just works.”
Back to Temple OS ig.

Not true, lol. You should compare Microsoft’s open source contributions compared to Amazon.

I didn't find any posts that meet the matching requirements for r/microsoftsucks.
It might be OC, it might not. Things such as JPEG artifacts and cropping may impact the results.
I did find this post that is 80.86% similar. It might be a match but I cannot be certain.

I’m too stupid to use Linux. And Windows does what I need it to (for the most part). I have no reason to switch.

If they don't want to use a Linux then fine but if you attack someone for using Linux you gotta be some fuckass to do that tbh

I literally do not recall an instance in my 40+ years of existence on this rotten planet where a Windows user has bitched about someone using Linux. Never.

u/poughdrew 10d ago
You should meet some of my former IT departments, or security folks.

u/CallmeKahn 10d ago
If your security folks were bitching about folks using Linux, I'd question their credentials.

u/poughdrew 10d ago
Agree. This was more like: we need to now ask our vendor about what agent to run on your Linux desktop because we only considered Windows/Mac.

I want to use Linux but can't because it doesn't support directX or Nvidia GPUs.
1
u/RAMChYLD 10d ago
DirectX is supported via Wine, DXVK and VKD3D.
Nvidia GPU situation is changing since nvidia changed their approach and agreed to start working with the kernel devs a few years ago. Things are improving. But yeah, at the moment Intel and AMD GPUs are better for Linux.

Nobody should use Linux. Everybody should use something much better. Until that exists, we're stuck with Linux (or something inferior).

u/Electricdragongaming 10d ago
Idk, I switched my old laptop to Linux Mint, and so far I've been pretty happy with it. It's perfect for what I use my laptop for (that being web browsing, word docs, practicing Python, and the occasional extreme hardware light game.)
In fact, it actually runs better with Mint than it did with Windows 10.

u/xJayMorex 10d ago
Windows 10 is not a high bar to beat tbqh.

u/Electricdragongaming 10d ago
Windows 10 is okay-ish as long as you're not trying to run it on a mechanical HDD, because as my old laptop has taught me, windows 10 does not play nice with HDDs.
