    Windows 11. Don’t @ me, I don’t have the mental or physical energy to deal with Linux. I’ve never had a Linux install that’s had close to everything working, there’s always a device (network, sound, graphics, usb toaster) that doesn’t work and attempts to follow people’s instructions to fix it either make it worse or just do nothing.

    Maybe I’m just useless or unlucky, but I’m due to die in a few decades and I don’t have time to deal with that nonsense when Windows does everything I want it to.

      I totally get that Linux is excellent, but the Linux community can be exhausting sometimes.

      “It’s so easy to use these days!” is rapidly followed by “You just need to grep the package and recompile it for your kernel.”

      I heard a saying once, “Linux is for people who don’t value their time”

      Thought it was pretty funny
