    Everything runs fine on Linux, just follow the ten pages of commands and technical procedures to get them working and installed with your particular hardware.

    …I like tinkering, but I don’t like tinkering with stuff that should already just work by now. Linux should already just work by now, I keeping waiting to switch to it, I keep finding out nothing has changed, and you still need to know a bunch of archaic command line stuff just to get the basics working.

    They like it that way.

      When did you last use Linux, 2006?

      I install steam. I press play. Game runs.

      Only really exception is the ones that force the installation of a rootkit (kernel-level anti-cheat) in order to play, which I wouldn’t play on Windows either because I don’t want a rootkit from a random dev on my machine.

        Not sure why you’d think I’m just talking about games when I said “everything”.

          Huh? You specifically replied to someone talking about Linux not playing all their games:

          but until all my games run well in Linux, I’m stuck here.

          You then continued this talking point:

          Everything runs fine on Linux, just follow the ten pages of commands and technical procedures to get them working and installed with your particular hardware.

          So yeah. I thought that because that’s exactly what you were doing. What’s confusing you here?

            Yah, but apparently that person is wrong according to everyone here, and I’m wrong for agreeing with them more broadly (I sarcastically said “everything runs just fine” not “all games”).

            So in light of this new information (being told what I was talking about), I’m changing my vote.

            I don’t use linux because of its users being shitheads. Nagging smug fuck face shitheads, with no social skills, or communications skills, who would prefer to try to pressure you into their cult than just talk like normal people.

            Now let’s check in with a more recent thread on the topic.

            Installing most Linux OSes has been easy enough for decades, but a program not in your distro’s repos could be a nightmare to get working.

            On no, a desenting opinion, y’all better go downvote them, zealot fucks.

              Lmao you’re so angry

              Take the L. You entered a discussion where someone was talking about gaming, continued that discussion, then became rude when I was continuing to talk about gaming, now you’re flying into a frenzied rage because you can’t talk like an adult.

              Seriously, why can’t Windows users talk like normal people, rather than angry, whiny shitheads? Why do they need to justify their cult behaviour so much? It’s weird.

              Wah wah wah someone downvoted you, what a travesty, your poor fee fees 🥺

                I just don’t like wankers telling me what I was saying, or who deny all failings of something because it’s their chosen sacred cow.

                  You were either talking about gaming or went off on a completely different (and entirely inaccurate) tangent.

                  Then you got really, really upset. It’s not that deep. Just take the L and move along.

                    Sorry, are you still trying to tell me what I was talking about two days later, and after I’ve provided you links to other people who also feel the same way?

                    … and you’re tell ME to move on? That’s embarassing. Do you not have anything else in your life?

                    Grow up child, when you do you’ll realise not everyone in life is going to like the same things as you.

                    You might also learn that conversations aren’t about tallying up your “wins” and “losses”, or controlling what both sides mean…

                    I’m sure you’ll make at least one more reply, as people like you tend to have to get the last word in… I’ll tell you what buddy. I’ll let you. Seems like you need it.
