It is hilarious to me that Lemmy users, who seem to mostly be obsessed with Linux (borderline Arch users except slightly less annoying about it), talk like Windows is such a massively hated OS when it is literally still the most widely distributed and used OS in the world. Like yes, so many people globally hate Windows which is why everyone keeps using Windows and not switching to something they hate less. Of course.
I mean... right now I'm using windows on my desktop computer because when I installed mint I encountered a bunch of problems (no Ethernet, no wifi, no HDMI out, crashes on steam games...)
I really wanted to use Linux, but the out of the box support just isn't always there. I'm not using windows because I like or prefer it.
That is unfortunate. I also installed Linux Mint last year, and although I've had weird little issues here and there, none of them were major, and overall I was able to use it exclusively for the last seven months. One issue I encountered when installing was actually because of Window's fault (during the drive partitioning portion), since I do dual-booting.
