  • Ditto here. I always felt that the desktop environments were just way less polished than Windows, but I feel like it’s been the reverse now with KDE Plasma for the past couple years. I don’t feel like I’m taking a lesser experience for the sake of having control over my computer, at least anymore.

    I would actually like if Windows went back to the Windows 7 era of… everything. At least there’d be some competition to Linux. Where it’s sitting right now with both Windows 10 and 11, I’d take a lesser experience under Linux if it meant that Microsoft wasn’t in charge of everything. It’s my computer.

    It’s just something that people are excited about. It’s also mind-boggling how people complain so much about a product but refuse to replace it. Yeah, I get it how there’s software that only runs on Windows; this is something that should be fixed. We shouldn’t be stuck on a shitty OS with no other options due to required software. That’s the thing about Linux, you can customize it to be whatever you want, whereas you’re stuck with whatever Microsoft gives you with Windows. Just the idea that a single company has control over everything is wrong. I don’t really care if Linux wins out in the end, I just want choice in what OS I can run. That’s it.
