I’m extremely technically literate, build my own PCs and write my own software tools.

I don’t use Linux at home because I don’t want to fiddle. I want to sit down, open steam, and play a game.

I use Linux for many things, but my personal computer uses windows because it just works all the time.

I'm sorry all of the Linux fan boys don't like your comment. My main is Windows and my other PC is a Linux box.

Pointing out significant flaws that are holding the systems adoption rate back is never popular. Most of them are very techy and don't have a clue what the average user needs. It's a great way to get them all riled up.

I spent a few years as a process flow and bug finder for some programmers building a proprietary internal system. Then I trained non-tech savvy people on how to use the system. One of the most difficult jobs I have ever done. Bridging the gap between the two of them was brutal.

This place is a massive echo chamber. Votes don’t matter
