I’ve been using both for a good while by now, Linux is good but damn I know that’s a sacrilege but I still like Windows.

Granted, I heavily customized my Windows install, made all the adjustments I wanted and threw out most of the nagging garbage and my locked down work computer is definitely worse.

Windows just… works most of the time, and it’s fluent and does what I want.

At the end of the day, most of the direct user interaction with an OS “directly” is task bar, start menu and file manager. And for all of these things, there’s a lot that annoys me on Linux. In Windows, I’m very happy.

Just to give one example. I like the individual entries in the taskbar to fill the entire width dynamically. If there’s one entry, it fills the entire taskbar, you get what I mean. On Windows, that’s a registry tweak. On KDE, that’s basically impossible. Like, I’m sure somewhere in the source code for the panel there’s a way to rewrite that, but frankly, that’s close enough to “basically impossible” for me.

Why wait until it becomes a problem? The_Donald literally started as a joke brought over from 4chan. It grew and over time it basically went from “too small to do something about it” to “too big to do something about it” (to Reddit admins at least). Why even give these people a platform? We don’t have any reason to give them space to grow.

If you step in shit everywhere you go, look under your own shoe.

If you’re getting downvoted everywhere you go, maybe your opinions are just shit.
