Linux has made significant strides, and in 2023, it’s better than ever. However, there are still individuals perpetuating a delusion: that desktop Linux is as user-friendly and productive as its mainstream counterparts. After a few discussions on Lemmy, I believe it’s important to provide a clear review of where Linux falls short as a daily driver for average users.

EDIT: can I just make it clear I don’t agree with this article one bit and think it’s an unhinged polemic?

    This is really and truly terrible all around. Firstly, its a link to a website talking about a post on Lemmy… Why the hell is this just not a post? Why do we need an external website for this terrible excuse for “an article”? Secondly, the writing is terribly done with poorly reasoned arguments and a lot of just plain wrong information. It is yet another example of someone that tried switching to Linux once, sucked at it, and decided that everyone here in the Linux communities must just be lying about having no issues using linux and they should come here to the Linux communites to tell us to stop and we can’t do what we already do every damn day. Jesus, it seems like half of the posts in any Linux community on Lemmy is people that don’t use Linux telling everyone how bad Linux is and how great windows is… wtf guys.

      Its people being people I guess. They’re all weird. Some good weird, some bad weird. Thank you for taking the time to critique the article so I don’t need to read it. :)
