No shit I just had a nightmare last night that my computer installed W11 by itself against my will and it’s the first and scariest nightmare I’ve had in years.
Imagine thinking Windows 10 is a punishment.
Imagine think it isn’t…
I feel sorry for anyone who doesn’t realize it yet.
Buddy, I’ve been using Windows 10 since its release in 2015. In spite of Windows’ quirks, Microsoft’s shittiness sometimes, and gasp having to pay for it, 10 is a fine operating system. I’m not nearly the kind of person who flops on the floor kicking and crying anytime a new piece of software or hardware is created. I loved the Wii U, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and Windows 7 and 10, and I give Microsoft Edge the credit it’s due for where it’s pretty decent. I defend the flawed Windows Vista and 8 as important in-betweens on the path to better OS’s. Windows 11 on the other hand… still kinda sucks. Because I try to be fair in all things.
Speaking of being fair in all things, Linux doesn’t function as well as Windows and has many more problematic quirks-- some of them quite laughable-- and that’s the truth. Android (which is not Linux) is also a mess, but at least it doesn’t struggle with its hardware.

First, Android is Linux, it’s just locked down. Install Termux to get a better look.
Second, what do you mean it doesn’t function as well? There was an article I saw recently that tested performance of games on Windows and Linux, and Linux performed 12% faster I think. Somewhere around that number. Updating software is a hell of a lot easier too. There’s so many features that are better. Then you also get to customize how it looks, which is nice. This is dependent on your DE, but there’s tons of options, from nearly identical to whatever windows version you like to something totally new. It’s up to you, not some company. Again, I don’t know what you mean by “perform” so I don’t know how to respond, but it likely does perform better, whatever your definition.
There is a difference between punishment and cruel torture.
This squarely falls into the latter category.
If we’re going to be together you’re going to have to use Arch. Thx.
I’d have gone with either 11 or ME.
I think this ancient image is from when Windows 10 first came out and wasn’t good.
It’s the best OS for playing games (when debloated) and for casual computer users who don’t wanna spend OSX money.
Linux is catching up on the games front, but has no signs of being good for G-Ma and Pops in the near future.
