Been using it for close to 10 years. Never had a single serious issue with it. Apps break now and then. A simple reboot of the server or the app fixes it every single time.

A lot of public torrents download and seed at insane speeds. Like "must be in the same building or even the same disk" speeds.

There not doing a very good job of locking people in tbh. Basically all software runs fine on windows.

Its an absolute non issue to run non MS apps on windows.

Replying from Ubuntu (distro of the month for me) though, so I know other. I wouldn't say better, just different

Windows is perfectly fine for day to day use. 80% of my PC use (and probably 99% for like most people I know) is in a browser. The remaining 20% is in video games. My browser works 100% the same in Linux as it does in Windows. Video games overall are easier to use in Windows. (I use Steam (90% fine with Linux) and Gamepass, which does not play well with Linux).

But feel free to continue to complain about windows :)

I love how the lemmy FoSS Linux hivemind still down votes you to almost oblivion.

They still haven't figured out this isn't reddit. Shouldn't downvote just because you don't agree with something my dudes...

A folder 1

AA folder 2

AAA folder 3

Who cares about readability and logic. My outlook work archives are a mess.

You don't have a separate 100% anonymous steam account to use in case of having to fake your death? Your loss tbh...

Tbh anyone claiming they can't see the difference between 1080 and 4k on a monitor at a normal viewing distance is being disingenuous or has vision problems. The difference is very very noticeable.

That being said, I find the step from a 60hz to a 120hz monitor a bigger qol improvement than going from 1080 to 4K. But that's my personal opinion.

Oooh man, that tin box! We had that as our cookie tin box when I was a kid.

Does anyone have any idea where that comes from?

Any post on lemmy that goes against the Linux/ FoSS hivemind gets down voted instantly, regardless if it is well thought out or not.

To be fair, I've been using windows since 3.1. I haven't paid for windows since xp I think. I got an oem key second hand right around w7 for my desktop. That key has just lasted me all the way to w11. So I haven't paid ms anything either in decades (except for my personal data I guess?)
