I like Linux, I hate the app names. It's confusing as hell, especially if you are looking for some app that functions the way you imagine, then they name something weird like Nautilus instead of file explorer lmao.

[-] Evono@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

For some reason people get all ways extra fabulous when they make open source Software and need a fancy name instead of a great descriptive one...

Or they could name it atleast nautilus the file explorer or something.

[-] Dick_Justice@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

lol, thaat is so true. It's never just "File Explorer", is it?

[-] MrGeekman@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

It doesn’t exactly help that there’s like 5-10 of each kind of thing.

[-] njordomir@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

For me personally, having 5-10 of everything is good. I find what I like the best and you find what you like best. It can make extra work, but if you subtract out all the time I'd spend fighting the windows UI or looking at ads and "recommended content", I think we may actually come out on the better end of things.

Don't worry guys, I know how to fix this. I'll just create another package manager!! That should do it

Nowadays, knowing nothing of how windows works any more, I am always frustrated if I have to try to use it

[-] regeya@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago

The person who made this has never had to deal with Windows driver issues obviously

[-] FishInABarrel@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

This feels like a comment from 1997. Aside from occasionally updating video drivers for a new video game, I can't remember the last time I had to maintain--much less fix--a driver.

[-] regeya@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago

Oh! Apparently I'm in 1997, then. Remarkable that they have Windows 11, then. I have a machine where the Microsoft provided drivers cause screen blanking when hardware accelerated video plays. Installing the AMD drivers fixes that, but I've yet to figure out what the magic sauce is to prevent Windows Update from overwriting part of the drivers that Adrenalin installs. One boot after installing and the machine works great, then the next boot it'll just be a black screen of death. At least AMD's installer helpfully makes a restore point.

Sounds like my experience with Manjaro lol

I love simplicity. This is why I use Linux. Its just simpler to get simple Software that does just one thing and that good.

And I love tinkering with my os.

[-] rkk@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago

I disagre. But don't want to downvote.

[-] Chais@sh.itjust.works -1 points 1 year ago

I love simplicity and convenience. I just don't like giving up control.

This meme was made by not a real Linux user actually.

[-] Ixoid@kbin.social -1 points 1 year ago

Meme creator has obviously never used Linux Mint.

[-] Marduk73@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago

No lie, it's got to the point that it's more convenient to use Linux. Windows has become very intrusive with trying to help, privacy issue landmines you have to navigate, it's not unpleasant to use Windows. It's just more work to do it.

[-] Reygle@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago

Apparently Windows users just want something that never works, is unsupportable, and required re-installation 3 times a year.
