So how are OS updates handled, they are not written into the main OS?

I come back to lemmy and i read bullshit like this.

I have win11 on my gaming pc and i don’t see any ads. Maybe because i use local account.

My jellyfin server is on windows 11. It is stable for now. The day it crashes i will switch to linux.

I removed my edge browser without deleting webview2. If you use random internet scripts it will remove webview2 which is required by many apps and games. My current windows 11 install have no problems with edge uninstalled the proper way without removing webview2.

This is lemmy linux community, people here won’t accept windows is a great os without the microsoft bloatware.

I am never going to install linux on my gaming pc. It is too much work if you are into multiplayer/live service games. Windows just works if you uninstall all the ms crap.

How many years till adobe apps working perfectly?

Handheld gamers doesnt contribute much to league of legends, which is a highly competitive mouse and keyboard focused game. And riot have data about the linux gamers who plays lol before anticheat update. So they are right to offer zero support. Also linux never had much support for popular liver service games like EFT, warzone, siege, fortnite.

Os everyone here on graphene OS or other linux privacy phones? Or you guys only draw the line when it comes to desktop OS?

Linux is at 2 percent in the steam hardware survey, also 50 percent linux gamers in steam are steam deck users. That is not a big enough market and riot has more data than us and they are probably right.

Whats wrong with windows users. Not every hardware software is available/compatible with linux.

Whatever suits your narrative.

Yet we don’t see the same growth in steam hardware survey (which is dominated by steamdeck). I wonder why.

I am using statcounter for india numbers not steam. Steam numbers are not overinflated by these office pcs. Also india have 1.5billion people so any gain here have a significant impact on stat counter worldwide numbers.

You are here agreeing with me on why linux is a inferior experience on software and hardware front. You are softening the blow by blaming developers and capitalism. You dont have to ask muta, I work in the govt health sector in india and here every pc runs ubuntu. This is same for other sectors. Everything is done on the browser. Also gaming here is dominated by Mobile so these numbers are surely overinflated.

Anyone building a new pc, is going to use modern hardware not EOL hardware. Yes it is great that linux can revive old laptops making it perfectly capable for browsing and word processing, but for a new gaming pc with modern hardware that i build to play modern games i will choose windows over linux anyday.

Linux going 3 to 4 is because govt office pc. Also why linux have a 25 percent market share in india according to the same stats. Because all these pcs need is a chrome browser and word processing. If you look at recent steam hardware survey linux only have 2 percent market share in which half of them are steam deck users.

Why should i waste time troubleshooting on linux, when windows have 100 percent game compatibility and i don’t have to worry about any future games and proton incompatibility. Also popular games like valorant, league, eft, warzone and services like gamepass, netflix 4k doesnt outright work on linux.

You can hate microsoft telemetry and bloatware all you want but Hardware and software compatibility is better on windows. It is a fact.

When people build new gaming pc they still choose to install windows, because everything just works.

Also 45 percent of that 2 is on steam deck.
