Nah. Everything works. You guys like to invent problems and say that nothing will ever work yet… Windows is still the most used operating system because it just does. I’ve never had a problem with Windows that I couldn’t fix by a restart. It’s almost like not everyone using the operating system wants to do the inane bullshit that Linux users do and some of us want to just have it do the bare minimum.
But good to know that literally any differing opinion to your own is classified as ‘bait’. Another reason to avoid Linux users at all costs.
And yet when I use it things break. You guys always act like it doesn’t happen, but it does.
I’d rather have a system that works, is uncomplicated, and requires no maintenance. Where I don’t need to constantly paste shit into a command line to get stuff to work, try system restores, etc.
Funny to see a Star Trek reference in your name and then the comment below is simping for an evil trillion dollar company while shitting on the collective collaborative efforts of the many, too. Talk about missing the point.
“Paste shit into a command line to get stuff to work”
Like Linux? Or did I just pick a crappy distro as a beginner? On Nobara OS I couldn’t get a onedrive folder to work without konsole, and the one were setup was simple enough to work, I’m having bugs with files not syncing.
A case could be made that I should use some Linux focused cloud with a flatpack install, but I can’t since my uni relies on MS. Admittedly, an issue because of their monopoly, but one that makes switching an effort for normal people anyways.
Huh? Are you using an ISO from 2004 or something? I’ve never used a terminal on my PC outside of windows. On Linux I don’t even have one installed.
In my experience Windows is bewilderingly complicated, prone to breakage, full of spying/ads, and is a bit of a UX/UI nightmare.
It also just… turns sluggish over time. I’m not 100% sure why, but running their sketchy-looking disk cleanup utility seems to do the trick. Why it has to be something the user knows about and regularly carries out manually is beyond me, though.
I just want my PC to work, not fight me, and not feel like a chore to use. Windows cannot give me that.
I know this is bait but literally just web browsing on a windows desktop 2 days ago made it bluescreen. W10 even, so can’t even blame the shitshow that is W11.
I guess it goes for your argument though of stuff that can be fixed with a reboot… 🙃
I wonder if r/Windows11 would agree that “everything works.” Damn near every new update is bringing new issues with them. The entire OS is a privacy nightmare. Microslop is constantly shoving Copilot where people don’t want it. There a plenty of valid reasons why people recommend Linux, Apple, and even Windows 10 over Windows 11.
With “everything works” they obviously mean almost everything works almost all of the time. It is an exaggeration. Nothing is perfect.
The privacy nightmare only matters if you care about privacy, which the average user doesn’t.
Copilot can be disabled or just ignored in every software it is enabled.
There are also plenty of valid reasons why people recommend Windows 11 over Linux, Apple, and especially Windows 10.
I know you Linux users get bombarded with “windows bad” posts claiming nothing works on Windows. But reality is quite different. The average user doesn’t care about the things a Linux user cares about. And Linux users also tend to overestimate the capabilities of the average user.
Like, there are so many people in developed nations who don’t even have an internet connection. They are also part of the average users.
Sucks to be you.
Maybe he does it for free.
Nah. Everything works and I don’t have to deal with linux bros.
Everything works? On Windows?
Now I know your comments are just bait.
Then stop taking the bait.

Lol just recently Microslop broke the shutdown function.
I click start, I click shutdown, it shuts down. So unless you are talking about some obscure shit that no one really uses, that’s a lie.
Just because it doesn’t happen to you specifically it doesn’t mean it’s not true.

It was literally reported on by tech news outlets. You can get your head out of the sand, it is possible, I believe in you.
And just because it happens to a couple of users, doesn’t mean it is true for the entire userbase.
It is a small feature used by a handful of users. It does not affect anyone else.
If this happened on Linux it wouldn’t get reported on. But because of the ginormous userbase of Windows, they do.

That says more about you than it does Windows. So many users have never had any issue with their Windows computers.
It really doesn’t. I can find any number of articles about Windows updates breaking things for hundreds of thousands or millions of people.

I mean it fixed the problem automatically, didn’t it? /s
Yeah. Sure it did.
You want a pic for proof? Ok, no worries.

Not shopped, but that is a hardware issue and has nothing to do with Windows.
If you ran Linux on it, you would have the same issue. Just the screen wouldn’t be blue.

People like you make the world a living hell
Yes. I make the world a living hell for avoiding toxicity.
