Why did you make this thread? To show what memes you learned on Sup Forums so far? Everything you wrote can be proven to be wrong but you wouldn't care either way. So what exactly are you expecting?

No, but this is the Reddit of autistic posts
Not saging this thread is worse than committing murder, and should be subjected to legal proceedings
Literally none of the things you said are true
This is bait.
Windows 10 master race my friend.
No, my own experience.
Because I'm frustrated with it. Illogical as fuck. Btw how do you like my memes?

I exaggerated, but everything is true and everything happened (except for mouse part).
linuxfags are triggered.

Drive manual, use Linux, you amerifat.
And some distros like openSUSE have neat GUI for settings

Wine will run all games, as well as VM with PCI-E passthrough (but it is retarded, if you need to use special Windows programs - it is better to use them on Windows in dual-boot)

Compatibility is superior, it is not 2004, when webcam drives was an issue.

GTFO REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
No, nothing ever happened, except if you're using a shitty distro or a computer full of non-standard shit. I'm using Artix on both my desktop and my school laptop since two years ago, the only reason why I still have Windows installed is for few games, but some work natively on linux and others work just fine on wine
>More like a 5 minute, if you are not an a retard, who fell for Gentoo or LFS meme
Compared to 30 secs for Windows.
>Dunno, no pain for me
It's because you're so used to getting fucked in the ass, you can't even feel the BBC at this point.

I'm an Eurofag.

That's what common sense is for. I don't need my OS treating me like a kid with a shotgun. If I'm gonna fuck shit up, I'm gonna fuck shit up either way. Having to type a password is not going to make me reconsider what I was just about to do, it's just going to delay it.
>Compatibility is superior, it is not 2004, when webcam drives was an issue.
Good luck trying to make a .doc.
>Things that never actually happened, pt. 2
Not OP but I installed manjaro and the fucking image viewer that comes with it can't even set the wallpaper, despite having the option
So I had to get another, very specific, image viewer that ultimately ended up not working at all
It just goes to show you can't trust free software
Fuck off, pol/cuck

Congratulations, you literally just explained yourself why people don't use GNU/Linux over Windows
Pretty much noone develops it and none of the developers actually know how to properly program since they're just brainlet basement dwellers who get all their material from codeacademy
Free software has and always will be shit, because people are too fucking lazy to do anything without compensation and since freetards get no money for their work, they do everything as half-assedly as possible, just to throw their turd out and yell "B-BUT IT'S FREE, YOU SHOULD BE GRATEFUL"
not an argument.

Actually, this shit can be fixed, by changing permission to configs and removing 'sudo' from settings, but honestly, it sucks

You're not fooling anyone, Sup Forumscuck. Leave our board alone.

to be more specific, I had to install drivers on Windows (not 10 thought), but never had to install drivers on loonix
Soyboy, cuck. Meaningless words. They are being used by people who have been called soyboys and cucks as well. They are just overused insults at this point and they make you look not like a Sup Forums person, not like a nazi or an alt-righter, just like a retard. It's lazy lingo.

If you think having to put your password in everytime change this in visudo:
81 ## Uncomment to allow members of group wheel to execute any command
82 # %wheel ALL=(ALL) ALL
83
84 ## Same thing without a password
85 %wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
>Can't even click a mouse without having to type a password
Same thing as above, run `sudo visudo` and change:
81 ## Uncomment to allow members of group wheel to execute any command
82 # %wheel ALL=(ALL) ALL
83
84 ## Same thing without a password
85 %wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL

Here's a pro tip: Next time this happens, search the device name on GitHub, chances are that someone had the same problem as you and made a driver for it.
>>Installing software is a 3 hour process
It really isn't.
You search your database to see if the distro have the package and then you install it.
If it isn't there, you may need to spend more time to locate where you can get it, but it shouldn't take you hours to find.
The only way to spend hours installing something is if you compile a huge application on a slow CPU.
Like libreoffice or Firefox on a raspberry pi.
>>The most mundane activities are a pain in the ass
Such as?
>>Have to do everything manually
Like what?
Linux is so much easier to automate than any other system I have used.
>>No games
Play other games then.
>>Permissions everywhere
This is a good thing.
The rwx system is fine.
>>Can't even click a mouse without having to type a password
You need permission to modify the base system. So installing software, modifying users etc requires a password. I don't have sudo access to all the computers at work and I can still do my job.
>>No compatibility with anything
Like what? A lot of things work better right away without having you to configure anything. Things like niche sensors or controllers is the onlybthing you install drivers for manually these days as the rest just works.
And the best part is that if it works today, it is not very likely to stop working 10 years from now.
But normal stuff like a camera, printer, mouse and keyboard etc just works.
Oh yeah, Intel, AMD and IBM sure are completely free, let me just pull the schematics and code for all their products
Redhat is just garbage that hasn't done absolutely anything useful, despite apparently having 2.9 billion dollars in revenue as of last year
Goes to show how greedy freetards actually are, give them money and they don't do anything at all
as a linux noob that just recently installed it.
I use win10 to play my vidya games n shiet
I use linux on an old laptop to dabble in programming languages when I'm bored.
Then I use those programs in Windows to cheat in my games n shiet.

This is a fucking lie if the device uses MTP, but to be fair MTP is a pile of shit.
They work fine with the kernel.
Only the GUIs for it are shit.
>Not compiling everything

literally the easiest part of it, just click on next mindlessly if you're a dumb faggot and wait for it to partition and copy files onto the drive
>hunting for drivers
when will this meme that clearly came from retards than never used linux ever end? Drivers are literally the easiest part of it, they all come with the kernel and the only driver fuckery you ever have to do is with nvidia and broadcom. Mesa drivers for AMD rached parity with the proprietary drivers a long time ago. Meanwhile, on windows, you literally have to hunt the driver installers.
>installing
About 15 minutes on an SSD.
>drivers
Everything worked out of the box.
windows is for nu-soycucklets
I just want you to know that you're fucking degenerate scum.
Take a look back at your post and how you've misused the word 'literally', and if you don't feel immediate shame and regret, you should literally kill yourself.
it literally is, m8
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

This is a fucking lie for a lot of stuff... MTP, CAC readers... printing and scanning functionality beyond basic capabilities. Fuck linux

More like 5 hours. I installed Win10 on my gf's laptop from a .iso provided by her university. The .iso was outdated (wtf?), so Win10 asked me 3 times to wait till all the updates are installed. In the end it took 6 hours from starting the procedure to having a usuable computer.
>t. pajeet
Manjero is austistic af. Just use windows, if don't want to learn linux.
Mtp world just finde with my Phone, it shows up in thunar and loads contents reasonably fast
There are no Linux machines.
install gentoo
Linux is a kernel.
At least you didn't have to enter password.
>"I used X first and got used to it, now I'm on Y and its hard because its not X"
More like: I'm used to having X steps for doing Y. Now I need to do 2^X steps for the same thing.
>Destroy your doors at your home because they also require permissions
Weak point.
you have disseminated falsehoods about my preferred OS, prepare to die.
Literally nobody cares.
it do be like that
I have never ever seen a printer work on Windows without downloading additional drivers, unlike Linux.

Actually they run the same on both OSes.
Please stop calling the GNU system 'Linux'.

Please stop calling my Clang/musl/mksh/busybox/Linux system GNU.

No, you fucking moron, linux is a kernel.

Go back to primary school, you stupid fucking nigger
I've been using linux full time since 2006. This is what the graph would probably look like for me, taking into account the fact that I've installed linux on many computers and laptops and sometimes reinstalled where I could have just dist-upgrade'd instead

It's hard for pajeets.
apt is total shit anyway, I've had so many problems with it over the years and have had not a single problem with pacman. Wish all distros just used pacman instead.
What problems have you had with apt?
I know about the GNU/Linux thing, I just call it Linux like all the other normal non-crazy people.
