Can we have one mention of windows or macOS without someone coming shilling Linux all smug and superior?
I’m extremely tech savvy, a software engineer and nerd of decades, so I got sick of seeing all the Linux stuff and decided to wipe windows last week.
Installed fedora, set up networking and then the Nvidia Proprietary drivers and did whatever it needed to do with secure boot.
Powered off and on and boom no network connectivity at all and not sure what happened.
Suffice to say it piqued my inner nerd and I’ll put hours into setting this up again as it’s fun, I’ve gone Arch btw, but let’s not pretend that the average user is going to have an easier experience than they would on windows or Mac.
No, never was a serious post. But that user simply chastising all the one drive users was just as rude really.
