"oh, just switch to Linux"
Oh, just shut up already. On Linux my fingerprint reader doesn't work, my Adobe apps doesn't run, my Concepts app doesn't run. Not everybody works in IT, and many of us actually run apps other than Office ones.
This shit sucks, and I'll support every tool that fixes and neuters Microsoft attacks to the user space because my work apps are there.
Your WHAT? How stupid does one have to be to even use fingerprints on technology they do not fully control, and that has network access? facepalm
I'm sure the smartphone you're using right now is all under your control with no network access right? 🤦
Seriously, what's up with all those trolls on lemmy?
They're not trolls, just Unix-pilled dumbasses who can't accept their 4% club isn't the literal holy grail they want it to be.
Linux is great, yeah. You know what else is great? Playing games. Not debugging drivers. Stable configurations. Not sucking Torvalds' dick. Coming home after my job and just doing whatever the fuck I want on my PC, instead of putting on my "Linux user" overalls and going back to what is basically another job, trying and failing to get the fucking OS to do one teensy little thing that there are 50 half-documented solutions for, 49 of which don't work.
