Every single Linux DE sucks and will suck an incredible amount of your time if anything goes wrong / you want to tweak something niche. Open source (in the Linux DE world) = free = eff it, I’m not getting paid, they should be thankful
- kotaKat 3y agoThere is only one good DE and it is Fluxbox. ;) (I'll go get my flame suit on.)
- loloquwowndueo 3y agoAnecdata. Linux has worked for me for almost 30 years. Anecdata too, just so you can see how that works ;)
- felurx 3y agoI prefer Linux sucking away my time over Windows sucking away my time any day. Also, I don't feel like Microsofts attitude towards users is much better, theirs is "fuck you, we're getting your money anyways, eat trash". I'd rather use something that's imperfectly built for actual users over something that's built to generate revenue and market power for Microsoft. For the biggest part, the additional pain that I have with Linux (over the pain that I'd have with Windows anyways) is worth it for having a system that brings me joy to use and gives me room to be and feel competent. The rest is made up for with the knowledge that I'm using FOSS. Obviously, this is my personal view, which is a result of my preferences, how I (like to) use computers and my values. But so is yours.
