Hey the Linux community is active so they show up on All. Same thing with video game communities, it's a reflection of the interests of those who populate Lemmy. I don't care for either but we gotta start someplace. IMO it's largely due to the concept of the fediverse and instances and not simply an app you sign up to. FWIW, I barely get it. Folks here seem to be a tech savvy bunch

Jokes on you I spend my time hating on windows specifically
spoiler
Stupid devs never gave us aero back despite it being the second most requested feature on the stupid insider hub.
Then they magically added blur effects 5 years too late when their corporate overlords brought in the next team of intern graphic designers.
I still remember the windows 10 leak pic where the whole start menu and taskbar was clear as glass >:(
I saw a post last night of a dude lamenting how difficult installing Windows was and listed a bunch of problems I find absolutely absurd. You're telling me you know how to remedy driver issues in Linux, but can't figure out how to in modern Windows, which does it automatically?
There are plenty of things wrong with Windows that you don't need to make shit up.
Let's just be clear that Windows is a king of newer hardware and Linux is a king of older one, if we strictly take a driver-bullshit-o-meter.
In my experience, windows always gets something wrong with drivers and I have to go do some stupid shit to fix it. And then later fight windows update as it tries to override my fix. Windows problems are rarely immediately apparent, whereas Linux problems usually are.
I haven't had driver problems in forever, unless I'm using some old weird device that I haven't used in ages. And even then usually going into device manager and telling it what kind of device the unknown device is usually fixes it.
Was your last experi nice with Windows with Vista or something? 7,8,10,11 have all been almost entirely work free for installing any hardware that isn't exotic or boutique stuff.
I am not one of the people weighing in based on an arbitrary experience or a small sample set. I've installed Windows literally tens of thousands of computers. The only thing can think of in the last 10 years I needed to find a driver for is some USB barcode scanners that emulate serial devices, and the driver for an android phone to be able to flash the boot loader.
Every device that a computer actually needs to run just work.
even on Windows 10/11, I'm still frequently hearing about issues at work where the necessary ssd drivers are only included in the default windows installer (not the recovery shipped with the device) like half a year later. at least with Dell this seems to be a common theme.
To be fair I don't really like any os that is out there right now but I don't have an option that I would really like. I have a Mac as my work laptop my pc runs both Windows 10 and Manjaro. I also have a Steam Deck and a Rog Ally. Frankly I have complaints and issues for each OS and use each of them for different task and things. My point is I don't really like any of them but from all of those choices Linux is kinda the lesser evil. If there was a way better option like a forth os that everything works, all apps would be compatible with it, it would be less of a hassle and not spy on me and especially not force updates on me or crush do to multiple reasons including the forced updates then sign me up cause I would switch to it in a heartbeat.
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux.
Pretty much why I blocked c/technology from my feed. They could turn a post about a scientist studying crab migration into a debate about why the crabs aren't running fuckin Linux. Not everything has to be about an OS, you lot. They're basically Computer Mormons.
Computer Mormon is my new favorite thing to say
not knowing how to read a manual isn't a personality trait either linux haters
Hey...I also advocate for more solidarity within communities, growing your own food, using less plastic & cars, and Star Trek...Linux is just like 30% what I talk about.
Can you really advertise something that's free?
I think the right word is proselytize
Alright. Maybe and os isn't. Good point.
OK boys, time to go back to waifus
Or God forbid .... sports 🤮🤮🤮🤮
If people got it they wouldn't be running Windows. The brow-beatings will continue.
So anyways, I run Arch on my main gaming computer, and Debian on my servers and laptops.
Based and red pilled af
I'd have a beer with these fine upstanding young lads.
"Linux-based? Like Android?"
"WE DO NOT SPEAK THE NAME OF THE IMPURE"
Pretty sure it's Linux, based OS. Lol
Android can be great. It's Google that's the problem.
"I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Android, is in fact, GMS/Android, or as I've recently taken to calling it, Google plus Android. AOSP is not an ecosystem unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning Google ecosystem made useful by Google Play Services, monetization models, and mandatory telemetry components comprising a full OS as defined by Alphabet."
