Honestly, I agree with @StillNoLeftLeft@hexbear.net
Ok fair enough, but I wouldn't have installed Linux if I had not seen it recommended.
I'm not a computer toucher, but I can follow written advice.
These sorts of posts always scold anyone giving out actual solutions just so being miserable can continue. This cultural thing almost has an end of history type vibe to it. It's also pretty hostile to divergent and often solution focused neurotypes.
Linux evangelism kinda makes sense, no one is spending billions on marketing and ads for it. I think Linux evangelists should ask about use cases first, instead of just posting a generic "use Linux".
You're 100% correct. I've been daily driving some flavor of Linux for nearly 20 years, since way, way before it was even half as good as it is now to use on the desktop. I am sympathetic to hospitals, pharmacies, and other institutions where the grip of Windows and other crusty, proprietary systems on the various equipment and processes they require is virtually iron-tight and genuinely the difference between life or death for the patients under care. I have no sympathy for everyday desktop users who complain like this and simply don't want to change. In a lot of ways free software (specifically A/GPL software) is the closest thing we have to genuine Marxist principles in action in our current mode of living, and if someone doesn't want to pick up on that and support it then I can only guess what they'll think about what the rest of the world needs to go through on the way to "fully automated luxury gay space communism"...
