The terminal emulator is much easier for manipulating files, so thumbnails aren't really necessary, you're just a babby.

You can pay for support, same way you pay for Windows or MacOSX and get support. Canonical and Red Hat both offer paid support.
>doesn't just werk
Yes, it does. I installed Windows 7 and Debian on the same machine. Debian recognized the network card and graphics card during install and once the installation was done I booted up into a fully-functional system.
When I booted up into a fresh install of Windows 7 it had 1024x768 resolution and didn't recognize the network card. I had to go to a different computer and download the network card driver and then transfer it to the PC via USB. Now what if I didn't have another computer in the house, would I have to go to an internet cafe or a friend to get the network card driver then go back home to install it? Yeah, definitely an experience for 2016.

Linux isn't an operating system, but I'll ignore that for now.

See Also the drivers aren't that bad. Are there that many free drivers for Windows?
Besides Android has broad support for many phones.

There is the GIMP, also some combined viewing/editing software I can't remember the name of.

Not true. Just look at GOG, Humblebundle, Steam or your local AppStore.

Not true. Why do people always think that?

I can install Ubuntu from 2007 and I bet it would still recognize the network card.
Xavier Young
>Not true. Why do people always think that?
Because it's true. When picking a file the thumbnails are extremely tiny, and there's not an official fix for it.
It's a GTK issue, and a widespread one. I don't understand how someone who regularly uses Linux actually denies that it exists.
Andrew Martin

freecad has openscad integration and it works
it's not really great but it's far from shit
and a lot of people use plain openscad on windows because it's suited for 3d printing, obviously you can do the same on the gentoo
also nvidia proprietary drivers work fine for me and it supports all the games i like and any i make, as terry davis once said, write games don't play them

I can even run a full session from an usb, usually when i install windows i must use another computer to download the ethernet drivers, compared to that driver support on linux is much better. I consider you claim is too wide, be more specific.

>>no games*
This is pasta but it address your argument:
The no games argument is not true anymore. Windows is the best os for gaming mostly due to most game developers are trained into developing for it with microsoft's closed APIs, so the simple process of porting a game that was developed for windows to any other platform will affect negatively the performance of the game. This with the fact that the marketshare is small compared to windows there's hardly an incentive at the moment to optimize for linux, making look as if the platform were worse for games than windows when in fact to flip the situation you'll need to change the idiosyncrasies on the industry itself.
The fact though is that the situation on linux is not nearly the same than two years ago and now those who prefer linux over windows now can play games on it, helping to break the vicious circle, but still there's a lot of things to do for linux to compete in the gaming side. I anyone wants for this to change i recommend to play the games you can on linux when possible and ask for linux ports.
I notice some people doesn't want's for this to happen but if that the case let me ask (not directed specifically to the person i'm replying): how are any of you benefited in a meaningful way with the current situation? because i consider that keeping the statu quo just to have a tool to win an argument on what OS is better is not a meaningful thing. how having less options and practically being locked to MS products benefits you?

>>no office software*
Again, by involving your tastes now your argument is not better than an opinion, most probably everyone knows that there's office software for linux:
-Libre office
-Google docs.
-MS Office 365.
-MS Office on wine.
-WPS office.
-I think own clowd integrates an office application.
-There's one called onlyoffice that seems pretty nice (i haven't tried it tho).
By adding the "*that aren't total shit" clause you're trying to shield yourself from being proved wrong. I can't prove tastes wrong but at least i can provide an opinion the same way you did:
What i do on linux is the following:
>MS documents can potentially lock out yourself from your own documents making you depend on MSO, so for any document i want to be the owner forever i use Libreoffice and i use ODF.
>If i need to give a document i send it as PDF.
>If that document needs to be modified by someone else and that person doesn't use LO i use google docs.
>I i receive a document on MSO format i use MSO on wine.
>no file picker thumbnails
Not true for KDE and if we use that as a criteria to measure the quality of an OS then for example windows doesn't even has tabs on the file explorer, i cannot customize it properly without touching system files and at the moment it doesn't have a proper package manager.
>no support
You can buy support from companies if you want, also the help topics are not obscure things so most problems can be fixed with a google search and the error messages are useful compared to windows for example.
>doesn't just werk
It works fine for me, better than other options i have tried but to be precise you must make clear your criteria on what you consider "just werks", are you implying you're using an operative system with no bugs?
Cameron Anderson
>>install linux
>>no drivers*
Linux supports more hardware than Windows. Indeed, it supports that scanner you threw out when Microsoft changed the driver model with XP and HP et al said "lol, they'll just have to buy new"
>>no video editing software*
The best kept secret of Blender is the compositing editor.
>>no cad software*
Siemens would like a word with you.
>>no photo editing software*
This is because you are unwilling to learn anything different.
>>no office software*
There are office suites all over the fucking place. "But it's not Microsoft's" So what? Word was shit 20 years ago and it's still shit today.
>>no games*
Not true in the slightest.
>>no file picker thumbnails

Unfortunately most people is instructed on how to use windows from a young age and most people doesn't even knows what is an operative system. Repetition has an effect even if what's being spread are lies and microsoft knows this. I don't know if you're being sincere or if it's a bait and switch deflection tactic, even if it just were trolling it doesn't justifies it.

Can't do shit in windows 7 no x mouse window activation, no middle click paste directory structure uses backslashes. Have to put exe files in system32 to get them to work, and have no idea what happens if they don't. No built in ssh sftp rsync. Bloat, nsa, webserver setup in minutes not seconds. Nothing good but games.

Compare Arch linux with Android for example.
