Just a joke bro
Coming from windows xp was the bomb and used 7 for 6 years
I know, nothing wrong with the joke per se, it's just the repetitiveness of the shitting on Windows thing. Lately I've been thinking of unsubbing to these communities because of it.
Windows gets in the news almost daily with new ways they made their product worse. Of course people are shitting on them, it's still as relevant as years ago.
Absolutely this. If everyone just used their preferred OS and got along doing computer things, that'd be great. But when biggie-techs like M$ are constantly deciding to make stonks-money-fueled, idiotic waves that forcibly affect practically everyone who uses a computer at all, (like a dedicated "AI button" on keyboards. Or announcing they'll suddenly just paperweight WMR (VR) devices whenever they feel like it, or the whole "Windows 11 makes a bunch of recent hardware incompatible" thing, or Bing shenanigans...), it draws plenty of justified ire.
I grew up with Windows and loved it until later versions began getting more and more "user-hostile".
Cool story bro
As its your choice but the collective decision by Microsoft is not helping
For sure, but it's to be expected from a listed company. The only product is investor sentiment.
True that's why criticize it
Every day, all the time everywhere, to the point where Linux users become insufferable? Yeah...
Tbf you're in a pretty linux heavy space, that was so before the exodus and continues to grow. Perhaps unsurprising the free software people like the fediverse.
True but if you allow everyone a chance to criticize it Caz its out of love for windows from what it was and now what's it becoming
Yeah, a real fall from grace. I hate what it's become.
This one also shits on Mac, so it's a little different. That and the more bad speak about Windows, the better.
