It's ironic because you are actually more original/funny than that guy. All he does is complain about Windows
Honestly, I think hitting people with pros of Linux more than flaws/complaints about windows is a better strategy. Negativity is usually just hit with more negativity, not a very strong approach lol

Yes, a 3000 page pamphlet
No no, all you'd ever get from an Arch user is single postit that says "got a question? RTFM!"
Source: I use Arch btw

Yep. It's me. Do you have a moment to talk about our Lord and savior, GNU/Linux?

Those bricks are laid incredibly poorly, look at all those gaps
Try to understand, not everyone likes windows. They require quite a bit of maintenance, are usually insecure and speaking personally, some setups just don't look good. It's why some people opt for skylights instead.
Honestly windows is so slow at this point, we just use door. Why waste all that energy and power just to get the thing off the ground when alternatives exist?
Windows is an anachronism. Since I even got my wife and her gaming PC on the light side with Garuda Linux, works like a charm. After that she wanted me to install that "cool blank desktop" I have on my work laptop on her business machine in the shop. Now she loves bspwm. Learning doesn't make life harder per se, it's fun.
Windows bad, give Internet points!
Edge browser bad, give Internet points!
God damn kids these days.
Internet Explorer was bad, give me internet points.

This is hilarious.
My husband runs our Lemmy instance, and he's subscribed to the Linux community, which is one of the most active on Lemmy (I probably don't need to tell you that.) I'm basically just here for memes and I ultimately blocked the Linux community because it was all over my feed. I'm a normie and I just don't care about Linux whatsoever, not enough for every other post to be about it anyway.
ALL ABOARD THE WINDOWS SUX COX TRAIN! CHOO CHOO MFs!!

I enjoy Linux memes.
But not when the only joke they can muster being "Other OS bad for [insert dumb false argument here]"

Okay, but windows has become alarmingly invasive and dumbed down.
I don’t hate windows as much as I hate Microsoft.
ReactOS is a cool project and I hope it goes somewhere.
ReactOS is dead and will go nowhere.
The reason I say this is that I've been following them for something like 15+ years by this point, and they haven't made any perceptible progress in that time. They're at exactly the same point now where they were 15 years ago.

Edge isn't a bad browser. However it's based on Chromium so using it just feeds into the Chromium monopoly.
Firefox or Safari is the only way.

Hell no it ain't
It's Chrome, but Microsoft. So no it's not good but not because of speed or technical quality.
I mean I know people who are still trying to find bypasses to get around Microsoft and their online only strategy.
If you're still doing this, you.need to try Linux.

.world really is the Reddit of lemmy smdh my damn head.
I like the memes, but that's it. I use Linux, sure, but I also have to use Windows for a few programs because WINE doesn't work with said programs, and the alternatives aren't the best
With that being said, would I prefer Linux to be mainstream? Yes. Will it ever be? Probably not. Too many people just want something that works out of the box and don't want to spend hours fixing some obscure bug.
I am a nerd. Therefore, I am okay spending time working on my machine and making sure everything runs well. I have previously looked at an OS that doesn't seem to work or is starting to have issues and completely swap to a different distro using a base I have used and know will work 100% of the time

I don't have a problem with Edge itself. We use it at work and it's fine. I have a problem with microsoft constantly trying to trick me into using it among all their other shitty practices.

The guy that became a Marxist because of Linux?
Didn't check that far but it was a lot of generic posts from 2 users with similar names which could be summarised as "Windows bad" and "Linux good", with some variations including windows programs. Checked their accounts and they appear utterly obsessed with whining about Windows.
Like I get it. Windows sucks. Doesn't mean I want my entire feed full of a kid spamming their vitriol for it.
if hating something is your entire personality i am not talking to you regardless of what that thing is
stares at TLOU2 haters
Not defending the games quality, just kind of reminded me of how obsessed the "anti-fandom" of that game is.

To be honest I'd still be on Windows if MS hadn't screwed me out of the license I bought through the MS store and attached to my MS account. I do kinda miss the new Bing assistant in Edge, that was neat to screw around with for free while I was on that OS
