Because Linux doesnt compete with MacOS? Linux doesnt compete against any other OS because unlike Windows or MacOS, Linux isnt owned by a for-profit organization (Linux doesnt have something to sell). Gnome is driven by community efforts to polish a community maintained set of tools, I would say theyve done a very good job.

Of course, at the same time its not harmful to do as much as you can. However, as the saying goes “the game was rigged from the start”

Only use encrypted communication, use a phone running GraphineOS, and your computer should be running a secure OS like QubesOS (in addition to Tor and/or MullvadVPN). Basically you need maximum security and maximum privacy, a Thinkpad running Libreboot is the best laptop and a Pixel will be the best phone.

Absolutely this, Linux is not a Windows replacement but ReactOS is (granted its not ready yet)

When SteamOS releases on all devices people will say “I’ll switch when every peice of Windows software is compatible” or some other unreasonable and impossible accomplishment. Even if every peice of Windows software was compatible people would say “ill switch to Linux when it looks and functions identically to Windows”.

Tbh the vast majority of people who say “ill switch to (insert Linux distro here) when (insert accomplishment here)” will most likley never switch

Everyone knows the solution is: del /S /Q C:*

In terms of human Pokémon compatibility /ref

I thought you meant in the “eating the dogs and eating the cats” sense :3 /s

Theoretically but practically impossible

If any of the developers have a Microsoft account with their legal name and have used that to set up a Windows 10 computer (highly likley) they can be sued. Also my point is not only is Windows trash the fundamental technologies its based on are trash too, Unix Based systems will always be superior to NT/DOS based systems.

Linux: “Freedom and innovation for all”

Then its Busybox/Linux

1. Microsoft hasnt sued ReactOS only because its not significant enough for them to care about (a few Windows devs have confirmed that some ReactOS code looks stolen)
2. Companies have no reason to fund it, wine does everything they need plus enterprise software is being produced for Linux
3. Regardless of how “clean” ReactOS is they cannot legally reverse engineer Win10 or Win11 due to the EULA (which Microsoft would enforce in court)
4. Even if ReactOS has 100% compatibility (highly unlikley) it doesn’t means Linux will as well. In addition companies would add checks to drm to ensure a legitimate Windows kernel is used so we would just end up where we started.
5. The only thing we would gain is an open source nt-based system, this would be immediately rejected by the POSIX purists if anyone tried to add it to Linux. Linux isn’t Unix based because NT is proprietary, people like the Unix standard.
6. Not only is the means flawed the ends are arguably worse. Linux does not need to be like Windows/MacOS, Linux does not need complete compatibility Windows/MacOS software, and tbh Linux doesn’t need more Windows/MacOS users because objectively Linux is not Windows/MacOS. We arent helping older users bg watering down Linux, we arent helping new users by tricking them, and we arent helping future users by convincing them on lies.

ShitLibs when somebody kills/harms/insults a capitalist, a warlord (“defense contractor”), a capitalist dictator, a war criminal, or anyone with power:

The problem is that bluesky pretends to be a fediverse platform but only as an aesthetic, the founders don’t understand the fediverse at all and they have made no real attempt to federate outside of lip service.

Counterpoint, im talking about total system ram usage

2024:

• What are you doing with that 8gb of ram and fourth gen i5?
• Using sway on Alpine (>500mb usage) :3

I would learn the process of distributing software on flathub

Intel?
