Acceptable excuse. I am all in with Linux except that one program that uses .net and I can not get wine to work.
So the laptop with win11 comes out every month or so. After the 3-4 hours of updates and 2-3 reboots, it’s up and running for the 30minute task I have.
It’s windows 11 - it overwrites settings and installs whatever the fuck it wants. It’s not as bad where you are because of the EU laws. I then spend some time removing all the shit etc it forced onto the machine this time.
Personnaly, I debloat Windows 11 with Revo Uninstaller. For some reasons, sometimes, random updates slows down once you deleted some Windows Apps. No real proof why, but I think they’re updates for this components and they can required rebooting to be properly installed.
I mean, I didn’t when I joined Lemmy, but I do now.
I don’t think Lemmy was the deciding factor, Microsoft almost forced me by checking how much they can enshitificate win11 before users start exploding.
That’s perfectly valid. If Windows suits your needs and priorities, use it. I use Windows on my work laptop because Linux would be a nightmare with all the tools and apps we use. But personal laptop? Linux all the way.
For me Windows feels fast. I have
Intel Core 7 150U with iGPU
24 gb RAM
1 to SSD
Wifi, Bluetooth, etc.
My computer is an Asus VivoBook S14. Do you think it can be more faster than ever with Linux ?
And will Linux increase this battery life and autonomy ? For now, it’s the only dumb point.
In case you’re serious, Lemmy is the hot, exciting, punk, rebel version of reddit and Linux is the hot, exciting, punk, rebel version of using your computer. The motivation for using either are quite similar.
In fact, I’m using the both systems. (I used more or less ALL LINUX EVER lol). But I’m here just because Reddit is now a full porn / horny place, without any soul. Too many ads too.
It’s okay if you’re not linux, but there are a lot of those users here. You’ll hear a lot about it, lol.
It is not an anger factory here either for the most part. You’re coming around election time, so there is a bit of it. You might go through a bit of withdrawal.
Whhhhhyyyy Linux ? It works with Edge on Windows 11. But I think you’re right. It seems a far less anxious than Reddit, too.
Lmao, I also use Linux, but for my personal server. I’ve pro softwares who only works with Win. Wine don’t support them.

Have you tried to disable optional Updates ?

It’s a never ending game of whack-a-mole.

and people complain that linux is a chore to work with 🙄
You don’t have to use Linux… But, the side effects of using Lemmy might include switching to Linux and self hosting.
😎 I use Linux bro. Not on this computer, but I use Linux lol.

For me, Win11 just works (⊙o⊙) I assume it depends for your softwares, reinstalls, etc.

It’s sooooo slow though. If you use Linux regularly and then go to Windows, it’s painful

You’ll fit in just fine
