Aw, your comment was funny before you edited it.
Odd how this is the opposite of my experience. My mother is unable to print or scan things 2/3 of the time on her HP printer using windows 10. You know, the OS whose parent company has very close relations with HP, and is updated in a manner that forces their users to use the most up-to-date official HP drivers, even going as far as to prevent them from using any other drivers, including the default windows ones.
Meanwhile, my Linux laptop can operate the printer just fine. Never had an issue. I can even operate the loading tray, despite the HP tech support reps telling my mother it is broken.
Reminds me how on the very day Elden Ring released, it was performing better on Linux using proton

That’s certainly a conclusion to jump to.
I don’t have anything to say about Apple users, because I don’t know anything about them. I do however have things to say about Windows users, having been one my entire life up until a few years ago.
And that is why my code will never be multiplatform. No way I’m going to sink several thousand dollars for a machine I will never use except as part of my build pipeline.
I don’t think Windows user disagree with privacy per se. IMO, it’s more that they believe the lie that privacy is a myth, despite the fact it was had in abundance hardly more than a decade ago.
As someone who is admittedly addicted to windows hate juice, can we start getting more memes extolling the virtues of Linux/Unix, and fewer memes about windows being bad? We could be talking about Unix’s amazing shell environment, or its devotion to text-streams as an interface. Complaining about Windows just makes us look like we aren’t confident in our decisions to use Linux.
Seat 2. The guy in seat 1 already uses Linux, so someone ought to tell the wolves.
I’m actually curious to know, how is Linux inherently more secure than windows?
I’ve never experienced major slowdowns when running Linux on old laptops. It helps that OS fragmentation appears to be a problem exclusive to Windows
Can somebody explain why everyone is trying to ditch xorg? I’ve never had an issue with xorg, but I’m always hearing about major issues with Wayland.
I think that analogy oversimplifies according to the assumption that one is inherently better than the other. OP’s point here is that it isn’t all better at all.
I think a more accurate analogy would be that the OP is screaming that horse trails, ranches, and farms are being shut down because they don’t accommodate cars.
The longer I use Linux, the harder it becomes to see where windows users are coming from. Its gotten to the point where seeing people use windows in public feels incomprehensible to me, like watching people go to work on a pogo stick instead of a car.
I started with raspberry pi zero projects. Specifically projects that make use of various GPIO hats like cameras, displays, speakers, etc. At that level, things are still very abstract compared to bare-metal firmware, but you learn some of the basic principles of I/O. Next plan is to read up on circuit design, and start doing more projects with arduino-controlled breadboards.
Wasn’t expecting it to be easy. Think it will be much more rewarding though. Already has been thus far.
Edit: wait, that was a pun, wasn’t it?
I’m training to work in hardware currently. Its my hope that there at least, people still care about min-maxing power vs performance.
