What makes Linux so special? What can you do on Linux that you can't do on windows?

>no Ms office Libreoffice >shit drivers Depends >desktops requires ricing to look nice Looks better than windows 10 >forced to use command prompt for some basic functuality Than use a GUI program instead of a cli one.
Jackson Clark
friendly reminder linux is for hobbyists, windows and osx are for professionals. only reason to use linux is if you are a neet, want to pretend you are a programmer, and can waste hours ricing.
Jose Nelson
>libre office Inferior, but it works I suppose. If you want more than word processing, it's a nightmare though
Daniel Butler
>desktops require customization to look nice Wow. What a revelation.
Isaac Perry
>no Ms office >Libreoffice
anybody who sincerely suggests that libreoffice/openoffice/faggotoffice is a viable replacement for the ms office suite is something that could probably make due with wordpad and an email client.
ms office trounces the shit out of everything else in, you know, an actual office environment.

>no photoshop Not a daily requirement for the majority of the computer using population
>no ms office LibreOffice / OpenOffice (Is that even a thing anymore?)
>no AAA games Not a daily requirement for the majority of the computer using population
>shit drivers Better drivers. Built into the kernel (or as modules if you don't statically compile them). Your GPU is irrelevant.
>desktops require ricing to look nice Subjective
>forced to use command prompt for some basic functionality Much of the Windows UI calls for basic system stuff just runs a powershell command
>worse performance than windows and osx lolno, except for maybe one or two fringe cases.
>no support for any "serious" programs like Sony Vegas or Adobe dreamweaver, forcing users to use inferior "free" alternatives I wouldn't call Dreamweaver serious, but that's subjective.
> What can you do on Linux that you can't do on windows? HADOP cluster, CEPH cluster, SDN, massively parallel computing
I get it, you don't like Linux as a desktop. That's not its strength anyway.

Take your poo OS somewhere else, pajeet
Zachary Cooper
I know this is bait, but still... >>no photoshop GIMP will do fine for home purposes >>no ms office LibreOffice >>no AAA games Who gives a shit about AAA games anyways? Indie4life! And there are some devs that care about Linux like my fellow Croteam. >>shit drivers Drivers work better than Windows in most cases. >>desktops require ricing to look nice Xfce and GNOME look better when default than Windows. Pantheon makes it the same as MacOS. >>forced to use command prompt for some basic functionality Not true. >>worse performance than windows and osx Not true. >>no support for any "serious" programs like Sony Vegas or Adobe dreamweaver, forcing users to use inferior "free" alternatives The only point you've made so far. Congratz. >What can you do on Linux that you can't do on windows? You can't hack in Windows, you can't change basic system functionalities according to your wish (such as updates), you can actually own your PC (you can compile everything exactly like you wish), there are more supported architectures, and most importantly, you are free.

It's worse than Office; however, Office is inferior to LaTeX. So I really don't see OP's point.
Andrew Foster
Is someone getting paid to post this site
Every
Single
Day?
Leo Hughes
Wow, what is it like having no life and job, basement dweller. You've been making the same thread over and over again and no one takes a NEET Sup Forums manbaby like you seriously.
Get a gun and shoot yourself. That'll rid your parents from the pathetic abomination they created.
OP is a perfect example of insignificant Sup Forumsirgins
Jeremiah Wood
Yesterday was the same shit, can't tell for other days becasue my other PC has this lame shitpost filtered.
Sebastian Bennett
Okay
Are Mods to tech illiterate to implement an IP range ban?
Nathaniel Collins
What is WINE? What is Virtualbox? What is shitposting?
Jace Wright
I post from work, where I get paid to do other things that I ignore to shitpost instead. Does that count?
>Get a gun and shoot yourself That might be a little difficult for OP. Stepping in front of a bus or train is easier for them I think.
And even if that weren't the case, do you really want a retard to have access to a firearm?
Ryan Hernandez

You are either not working for a modern company or you have a shit job. Google documents is all the rage now and pretty much what everyone not living in the stone age uses. Just the other day some of the secretaries at work where literally laughing about a lawyer who had emailed them a .doc file and how it's the only business still using it.
If you really want to occasionally play video games just run dualboot. And Gimp works as a substitute for Photoshop unless it's your job/hobby to edit photos.
You can do everything basic on Linux with a GUI. It's just more convenient to do some more advanced things with bash. Once you start working with hardware / programming it pretty much becomes a must have which is why you see a lot of Linux and OSX and not that much windows.
Julian Parker
Mods don't give a fuck about this kind of crap.
Jackson Price
What? Op is asking what's the advantage of using Linux when it's clearly lacking.
How is that being a shill?
Aaron Cox

I was forced to use cli once in Linux mint.
It's sad horrible, I can still remember it. My doctor diagnosed me with ptsd

This is a Sup Forums thread.
Linux, drivers, applications and software, operating systems.
Fuck off if you don't like it :^)

Is posting ":^)" supposed to relief you from your mental anxiety, lonely basement dweller?
Brandon Wilson
Well said.
There is no reason for mods to keep deleting this except for Linux babbies getting butthurt over the truth

He's right though

Feels bad.

lincuxs need their own containment board.
Dominic Wood
Finally, someone said it.
Linux and weabshit should be banned from g.
Joshua Brooks
Aww winbabby is offended.
How is life at your mom's basement, low IQ manchild?

After mods filter all the traffic from India and similar shitholes.

Seriously, the only time you can ever be a hardcore shill for windows is if you're some gamer kid If you're past the age of gaming, you're just lazy to learn a new and better system for productivity AND daily use, like web browsing, text editing, photos and videos browsing and such
Tyler Rodriguez
Aren't you supposed to be in Sup Forums?

Bentley Phillips
To be fair, it is a mostly free OS, and it's great for general web browsing and multimedia.
But yeah, it pretty much flops for professional use/productivity unless you're using it to run a server
Aiden Peterson
>This thread is still up So baitposting is now allowed?
Jordan Martin
Where's the bait?
>what can you do on Linux that you can't do on windows? Seems like a valid question to me
Ayden Baker
Yeah, I can run the system without crashing if the username is not "user"
Colton Hernandez
So, same as windows then
Luke Peterson
No, not really. Use google. Also thisCan windows boot with custom kernel parameter without installing?
Henry Gray
kek I'm gonna copypaste this bait over and over again because lintards always replies to this
Nathaniel Jackson
Why would you need a custom kernel though?
Jaxson Jackson
idgi
