Too smart to use Windows
Too poor to use OS X

>>55829173
This, some of us had Macs provided by work and that's it, but nobody tech illiterate would use Windows

I wish 96% of /g/ used Linux. 96% of /g/ are winshits from /v/ who flood the board with endless threads about graphics cards.

Unless you're from /v/, anyone who uses tech slightly will say the same thing.

This. It's like winshits are trained to meme about osx. It's always the same argument about running games and it being expensive.

Major learning experience and a joy. Debian and Mint are good. So far I like Mate GUI. Downloading Debian kde and Mandrival RN.

I've never seen a Windows box at my software job either. Developers use Linux or OS X. The business dept uses OS X. There might be a few Windows virtual machines for testing and to deal with specific customer issues.

The only things that keep me on Windows are my familiarity with it and the availabilities of some software not on Linux

But I dual boot with kubuntu because Linux has plenty of advantages, most important being how straightforward it is, and how you don't have to google every little issue because of some cryptic little known fact of Windows that's acting up

A community that gets its kicks pretending to want freedom is eventually overrun with people who genuinely want freedom and think they're in good company.

>>55829437
Pretty much this. If you use Microsoft's stack, C#/F# and Visual Studio, you get decent tooling, an IDE with code completion, a package manager and a debugger. If you use literally any other programming language or technology on Windows, you will feel like a second-class citizen. C, C++, Java, Python, Ruby, node.js, Go, Rust, Perl, PHP and Haskell are all not quite as good on Windows as they are on Linux and macOS. C and C++ suffer because a lot of libraries assume that the developer has tools to manage dependencies like an OS-level package manager and something like pkg-config, whereas Windows has none of that and the convention is to include the libraries in tree (which is not source-control friendly) or to write "header-only libraries" because they don't require complex installation. A lot of languages suffer because they believe their executable formats (.jars, shebang'd script files, etc.) are as easy to use as native binaries (.exes,) which is not the case on Windows. node.js used to suffer because of Windows' path length limitations. Many command-line oriented tools suffer from poor unicode support in the Windows console.

Even Microsoft are aware of these issues, which is why Bash for Windows is a thing.

I mean.. I'm too smart for Windows.. I think it's a fisher price toy just like osx that's why I'm superior and I use a real os for real adults... that is linux- oh sorry, I meant GNU/Linux... it's just better... but you probably don't understand...

You are greatly overestimating how many people use Linux on /g/.

Most polls have had a draw between Loonix and Wangblows.

How did I do?

Literally fell for every single /g/ meme

>>55830750
buy a trackball and CRT

They haven't. Most are on Windows 7 or higher.

The only reason anyone would have Linux here is to show off their ricing in desktop threads otherwise they boot into windows to get work done or play vydia.

I'm one of those people by the way. Gotta say, debian has been the best distro for ricing so far.

my pc doesn't work properly with windows and i met torvalds irl once so i am sort of obliged to use it

Citations please. Every time I've seen a straw poll done the result has been 50% windows, 30% loonix and 20% mac OSX.

Bullshit. Winbabbies are too computer illiterate to uninstall a distro

Yeah, windumb parjeet, you are not computer literate enough to differentiate between formatting and uninstalling. No one expects you to be able to handle linux, so no. No distro is retard proof

Come on. Also plenty of hackintosh forums exist so don't give me excuses. Other than that you fell for the AMD processor meme.
