    Wow, Microsoft are always so innovative! I never thought that the Win11 taskbar could get any shittier, but somehow they managed it. It’s great to see those thousands of engineers being put to good use.

          There are free OS alternatives out there (which I suspect you already use but just want to poop on other’s parade).

          I assume that if someone’s already using Windows, a paid OS, they are willing to pay $2 to make it usable.

              Almost everyone pays for Windows. Notice how computers that let you not include it in the order get cheaper.

          I’ve used them all (probably 20+ different OS’ in my lifetime), and they all have a place. I use Windows, MacOS, and Linux daily, each for what they are good at. Maybe people should use what works best for them?

          Ditch Ubuntu too. Mint or OpenSuse are very good alternatives.

              With how they keep shoving snaps at everyone? At my work a migration to Debian is starting to be openly pondered.

                gnome is pushing flatpacks. the official gnome distro is immutable.

                i like debian. i like gnome. i don’t like this trend.

                  I almost never interact with desktop Linux. That’s a horrifying trend.
