I’ve made 200 github commits in the last year, of scripts and configuration files necessary to get my Linux environment how I want it.
The average Windows user has had to create 0 commits, they just turn their PC on it is what it is. They know exactly what they are getting, and are blissfully satisfied with it.
Windows users, be grateful you don’t have to endure my daily struggle.
I have a different struggle with Windows, the one where I have to re-run OO Shutup++ after every update to disable all the telemetry, Copilot, etc.
The only OS were on the market right now that just boots up and does its job is Mac OS, and that’s become more and more of a walled garden.
You have two paths today. NixOS with home manager. Or some immutable and atomic, either premade like fedora atomics or by hand with something like ansible. But both guarantee a way to fix the dotfile headache.
Not Ansible. Anything but that slow kludgy callback to 2002.
I discretely agree. Maybe puppet or salt. There are alternatives to raw doggin a github repository.
Microsoft Recall gonna change that in record time. Fucking virus-ass horseshit.
I get things like this randomly pop up when using work services, like autotask, datto etc. I always respond with 0 and explain with something similar. My colleagues already use the service, as funny they are in the same company ! Me & friends don’t talk about those kinda things…
i mean windows is the default everyone uses, nobody needs to recommend it because everyone knows what it is.
linux is niche software that may be better for someone, but they might not even be aware of it.
