THANK you!
I'm tired of the cult of perfection surrounding frankly middling proprietary operating systems.
- Every mac I've ever used has had Launchpad UI bugs requiring me to try several times to launch things.
- OS X has woeful graphics drivers, to the point where Mesa is doing better.
- My Air got erratically unusably laggy until I finally gave up on it.
- My MBP will occasionally forget that it has any integrated input devices, requiring me to either find a USB keyboard or reboot.
- Microsoft still hasn't resolved their graphics driver stability situation; blue screens are far from a relic of the past in my experience.
These are anecdotes, yes. Sure, some (rare) people might have a perfect experience with OS X or Windows. But the point is, free operating systems don't have a monopoly on driver and spitshine issues.
- Zikes 11y agoWindows 10's UI is pretty half-baked, as well. I mean, the UI concepts aren't bad, but they're only applied to half of the OS, with everything just below the surface still using the old-fashioned dialogs that've been around since Windows 98.
- scholia 11y agoThey're converting stuff to Windows Runtime. There's a lot of it. It will take a while....
