Because “make” = “buy”

Cool beans

I haven’t used win11 yet and my work laptop uses win10 so although I can’t claim any of the benefits you listed aren’t accurate, my issues with windows go a little deeper than “win10 and earlier lack features 11 has”.

On the WSL front, sure it’s kinda cool and a way better programming experience, but it’s still just linux under windows, so I find myself asking why I wouldn’t just use linux, hardly a dub for windows.

The elephant in the room for me is the invasive software, of course. Win11 looks to be even more guilty of this with the likes of copilot and recall, but I can hard copium, bury my head in the sand and ignore these for the sake of work (with a smile on my face I guess).

Equally though, I simply don’t find win10 enjoyable to use, and I’m not confident win11 is the solution. I use a tiling window manager on my home desktop so Windows’ floating window manager isn’t going to appeal to me. Installing and updating software is okay for some programs but annoying for others, never great. Sure, windows finally realised package managers were a thing, but winget leaves a lot to be desired for me.

Also, why does an operating system need ads? Genuine question.

I try to justify that windows is okay for corporate, but that’s requiring some hardcore copium.

Can’t play league on linux

Actually a good thing

Where were these screenshots posted?

I’d understand more if these communities were outright file sharing. I understand why that’s a liability. But discussion of the topic should be permitted, which said communities are exactly that. [email protected] explicitally forbids file sharing in their rules.

Let’s be real though, the admins handling of this wasn’t great. A more public discussion could have prevented backlash or allow these communities to address LW admin’s concerns.

This goes against the principles of the fediverse, I’d expect content censorship from the likes of reddit and twitter. This feels like a knee-jerk reaction to a problem that doesn’t exist on communities from completely different instances (and judging by the backlash this decision came out of nowhere without consultng the community). I seriously urge you to reconsider this decision.
