15 years back people were given Windows macOS and Linux and people voted which OS were ready for the Desktop and which were not. The only BS is your inflammatory contribution to this topic.
- grim_io 10mo agoThe average user only cares what they can run on the desktop. Linux did not have as much choice back then.
- PunchyHamster 10mo agoNope, Macs were expensive stuff games did not run on, and linux was just not pushed by near anyone. It was not a war "which desktop is easier to use", it was "which system can run stuff I need". And if "the need" was "video games and office stuff", your only choice was windows.
- redeeman 10mo agothey were not, they purchased what was in the stores, which was only windows. all the way from first windows to windows xp it was the biggest pile of shit imaginable. the average user wouldnt even have half a chance of installing it, and certainly couldnt use it with any kind of reasonableness, it was a giant mess, it was just the mess people were used to. Most people would throw out their computer and buy a new when windows became slow, because, of course it gradually becomes slower, makes perfect sense, no? KDE from 15 years back was HUGELY better than windows at the time, and frankly, also windows now
