DIY is usually quite hacky and not polished. Most people want shiny first. Offer people something that works reliable ... and they go for it.

- PopeDotNinja 6y agoThat’s why I prefer MacOS to Linux. I like the polished UI and kick butt trackpad.
- OJFord 6y agoI like that too, but I prefer Linux because once I have something the way I want it, it doesn't change unless I tell it to.
- fakedang 6y agoThis was a big driver for me moving from Windows to Linux last month. Some stupid automatic update and the next thing you know my computer's hard disk gets corrupted, resulting in a disk cleanup that deleted all of my important stuff. Thankfully I had everything stored separately (cloud+hardware). Not to mention the new Windows update slowed down my other PC severely.
- arp242 6y agoIt's not even about wanting "shiny", it's just not wanting to spend time on it. Life is short, and there's lots of things to do, see, and experience.
