A typical Linux distro, especially lightweight and simpler ones like Arch, will of course be better than a bloated OS, like Pop or Windows. The only problem with Linux distros might be the choice of tools - X and AMD will work much better overall than Wayland and Nvidia.
Just that many people may have an Nvidia GPU before deciding to use Linux, and some people just prefer to use Wayland over X for literally everything else.

My PC with Wayland + Nvidia has so many problems with gaming, especially flickering and performance, while my Laptop with Wayland + integrated Intel graphics has no problems at all - even in games, that I wonder if Nvidia + Wayland still really sucks ass or if my GPU is just broken. Currently there’s a bug where frames are ‘switched’ somehow, so it’s not Frame 1, Frame 2, … Frame n, but Frame 1, Frame 3, Frame 2, Frame 5, Frame 6, Frame 4 etc.
I expect it to be fixed by an update of nvidia in the future, but there are always such bugs.

I love how Germans mastered laughing at suffering, with Schadenfreude, and Americans did everything else.

My father was lucky, I wanted a minecraft server so bad that I accepted to learn how to handle an Ubuntu Server, with ~10 years.
Then I kinda had my edgy hacking phase with 12, and installed Kali as dual boot.
As my Windows install got older, dirtier and buggier, I decided to just f it and installed Pop over everything.

So, get them to be interested in having/doing something requiring Linux, then show them the wonders of the Linux desktop, preferably not Kali, but something more user friendly, and finally wait till they want to reinstall for whatever reason, like a new PC (with AMD or Intel GPU).

Why would I see leather when googling GIMP? I only associate gimp with the FOSS GNU Image Manipulation Progrsm

There’s much phobia here, notably Windowsphobia and Applephobia, also known as Scamphobia.

To be fair, Signal, Threema and Discord use Electron, and therefore are just crappy bullshit on Wayland.
Using a dedicated FF instance uses less RAM, CPU and disk space, and gives you more control over the application/website.

Discord has a web version, even if it doesn’t support some features, so I use it in FF. WhatsApp has a web version, so I use it in FF.
Signal does not. So it’s barely usable on my Nvidia desktop.
We do not need ““native”” Applications, made with a mix of a web version and a D tier browser engine, if we could just use the already installed, better and perfectly working browser.

  • Discords Electron was outdated and vulnerable for years, FF would be patched in days or hours in case of a zero day.
  • Electron uses much more resources than FF. Because every company thinks they need a custom version of electron, every app brings its own bloaty electron environment, despite there being a system one.
  • Electron/Chromium is extremely buggy on Wayland + Nvidia, to the point I cannot use Spotify, Discord or Steam correctly.

Does your Windows do this? doesn’t crash

But seriously, yesterday I cloned my main partition to a new laptop into an LVM volume on LUKS. Because I did not have any way of putting the new NVMe and old SATA SSD into one machine, I just used netcat over an ad hoc network.


<span style="color:#323232;">nc -l 10000 > /dev/main/root
</span>

on the new Laptop and


<span style="color:#323232;">cat /dev/sda3 | nc 10.31.69.1 10000 -q 0
</span>

on the old one. Worked perfectly. Now do that on Windows with builtin tools in live boots.

This is literally comedy lmao.

Most points are just complaining that tools specifically designed for X don’t work on Wayland. That’s like hanging onto your childhood pants and complaining they don’t fit anymore.

    They’re probably not buying but making fun of it. Which is the best approach, probably.

    30p87,

    And if you do ask someone, your grammar is on point.

    30p87,

    Ofc, you would not want your own computer to have a virus, would you?

    Joke, I’m jealous of you and your Government. Germany is doing something, but not nearly enough to push Linux.

    30p87,

    Well to be fair, you did. And he’s the perfect answer to your question, as an example to why some people are racist: They’re simply dumb.

    30p87,

    Note that it is not blind. It can still see you.

    *Microsoft devs

    Now, seriously. Microsoft’s devs literally only do something if their boss tells them to, and the boss only cares about money. The support teams only know chkdsk and reboot.

    One would think this only involves their operating spyware system, but all of their “professional” software is just as bad too!

    It looked like that for exactly one summer. Not it’s mixed again. And the lower half of the property is literal wilderness anyway. A mother deer with two fawns likes it a lot. The other plots are also completely mixed, and so large that we just have sheep on there to avoid mowing. Bonus: They’re tame, fluffy, cuddly and warm.

    30p87,

    So the caption would need to be: “When you’re on coke and H at your maximum wage chair sitting job and you see Gordon Ramsay walk in with a camera crew”
