    And the goddamn distros can’t even support a fingerprint reader nor a nvidia card, or forces you to do some terminal voodoo to make the thing work, or crashes without warning after an update.

    But somehow that’s better than Windows. -_-

      to be fair its not Linux that doesnt support nvidia, its the other way around.

      and it works fine if you dont have more specific use cases.

      It’s Nvidia that has poor support for some standards, not the other way around.

      And it’s not like people don’t run into issues, probably more often, with Windows update. The last time I updated Windows my audio got fucked and even rolling back the update and reinstalling audio drivers didn’t work. I had to reinstall windows entirely, which takes a bizarrely long time.

      And yeah, IMO, it’s far better than Windows, and it’s not even close. But it’s just a tool. Use Windows if you want to use Windows.
