People don't know about the stuff you're describing. They use the OS that comes with their PC or is the one everyone else uses.

- Neywiny 5mo ago^^^^^ https://xkcd.com/2501/ https://xkcd.com/2501/ Just like how Linus from LTT (just trust me bro on the source) said one day he needed a tool (hammer?) so he walked into the hardware store, found what looked like a hammer, and bought it. End of journey. And then he finally realized how a regular person buys tech. Most people do not care, do not know they should care, and do not care enough to know if they should care enough.
- wincy 5mo agoYeah but they could have gotten a Makita XWT15Z 18V LXT Lithium Ion Brushless Cordless Impact Hammer instead? (This is like my niece buying a $5000 Alienware to play Roblox because she thinks she “needs a gaming PC”)
- bigyabai 5mo agoIgnorance isn't a good excuse. If you do backbreaking work in the worst shoes and complain about your foot hurting, you might want to start shoe shopping.
- yndoendo 5mo agoShoe shopping and learning about new / different technology are not equivalent. Shoes have a near uniform interface that is easily learned by parents or trial and error. Loading an alternative OS is foreign to most people. People learn from others the best. Teaching others is the only means for them to realize there are better solutions than sticking with techo-fascist Microsoft. I'm say this as someone that grew up on MS-DOS and used Windows OS up to Windows 7. After personal exploration, other OSes actually are easier and more stable. You now have to pay me to use Windows OS. Microsoft is the baddy.
