I'm not going to say your complaints are invalid, but you're setting a very high bar, one that no mainstream OS clears today. I've had similar and much worse problems on all the big three platforms.
- bioemerl 4y agoI've never had any problems on Windows similar to the ones I've had on Linux. On Windows I have never had a button just do nothing. Not for something as simple and common as formatting a flash drive. I've never had problems dragging and dropping between a popular windows program and the windows operating system. Maybe it's inherent because Linux is open source and stuff just won't work together because of that, but if that's the case then Linux is doomed to never be able to compete with Windows.
- akkartik 4y agoWhat app were you using to format the flash drive?
- bioemerl 4y agoThe Ubuntu file manager (disk partition manager after that failed)
- fao_ 4y ago> On Windows I have never had a button just do nothing. Not for something as simple and common as formatting a flash drive. Amusing, given the amount of times ive clicked on a defunct or near-to-failing drive in windows and either had the drive disappear, or just not do anything. The amount of times I've seen windows do absolutely fucking nothing in response to a USB, at least linux screams into a console about it
