In what way was I pushing others to switch to Linux? I literally said I do not bother trying to make others switch.
I simply gave the reasons I prefer desktop Linux to Windows and yes I believe desktop Linux is "great". In my experience it is certainly not "subpar" compared to Windows, hence why I use it.
- tigershark 10y agoWhere did I say that you were pushing others to switch to Linux? I clearly said that the article was doing that. You instead stated an absolute truth that Desktop Linux is great, that is simply untrue by all means.
- ldp01 10y agoWell, fair enough then. I plead guilty as charged. Linux is definitely not great.
- mbrock 10y agoIt's not untrue. It just depends on what you want and like. My laptop Linux setup is exactly how I want it to be and it's indeed great. If you don't like it, that doesn't affect me at all.
- tigershark 10y agoA great desktop operating system works just out of the box without any ridiculous quirk and doesn't force the user to spend time to find a solution. I might call it broken, but for sure not great.
- mbrock 10y agoWell, it would be nice if there was an operating system that worked as I wanted it to out of the box. But there's no such thing, so I'm okay with "great after initial configuration". My Linux setup, for me, is much greater than any other I've ever used.
