  • They have been suffering for years and never thought once about alternatives like Ubuntu

    The average user is pretty unaffected by windows’ enshitification. And if it doesn’t fuck over their daily life, most people are more than happy to keep using the thing they’re familiar with. Especially when switching would require not only learning one new thing, but a large number of new things. For example, do you use paint.net? Sucks to suck, time to find a Linux alternative and learn how to use it and hope it can do everything you need it for.

    Linux fanatics like to pretend its as simple as installing a different OS and that’s it, everything else in your workflow will work immediately with no research needed. But that’s simply not true.






  • Idk. I think it stops being an innocent intrusive thought once you’ve said it out loud on a public forum. It just feels mean spirited and rude. It’d be like saying “I hope he does a flip” out loud while in a crowd watching somebody about to jump off a building. Sure, he probably didn’t hear you, but it’s still fucked up and not okay. Maybe not that bad since nobody is at the risk of dying in the comment’s case, but you probably get my point. Intrusive thoughts should be kept to yourself.

    That said, I apologize for misinterpreting what you said as agreeing with them.
