I really want to stress the last one.

You don't feel like you're fighting the OS to do what you want when you use linux.

Besides the spying shit, the really big gripe I've had with Win10 this entire time since its release is its utter and complete inconsistency. This operating system needed a couple more years, and competent developers...

except linux doesn't even take advantage of powerful hardware at all, can you give me more than 5 worthwhile programs that actually NEED powerful hardware?

I could only think of blender

nice damage control, can't even answer my questions
>inb4 wintodler
I use Debian on my old laptop, but you are just going to call me a wintolder because I'm not a Linux white knight
>>
>>58976603
I can't even argue with you because you don't know the difference between the OS and a program running within it.

A program has no business using all your resources.
Just because the latest version of photoshop or 3DS max requires all of your RAM and CPU to draw a box does not make it a more "substantial" program.

dumb cunt, you are the one that understood my question but knew you couldn't answer it so you just go on damage control

>mfw Windows has come to the point where doing something on fucking LINUX is faster and easier, and Windows spends millions on UI development only to fail where Linux succeed with a bunch of neckbeards with almost no financial investment

You computer is a super computer? No? Stay on Windows or MacOS.

As far as I know the toaster is for baking bread

1. It's free, as in free beer.
2. It's free, as in free speech. You can run, copy, distribute, study, change and improve it.
3. It's stable. Linux machines are meant to run for multiple months at a time without shutting down; Windows and Mac will start to fail eventually if you don't shut them down every night.
4. No or few viruses / malaware are written for Linux.
5. Privacy - Linux won't gather and sell your personal information
6. No advertisements
7. Easier to update. Just type "sudo apt-get upgrade" and wait for the update to finish, much easier than the bullshit with windows / mac randomly shutting down your computer.
8. Highly customize-able, many choices for your interface.
9. The applications are also free (in both senses)
10. It's compact, the OS itself takes up very little space.

>1. It's free, as in free beer.
Except for the hours needed to get it functional from the command line and longer when shit breaks.
>2. It's free, as in free speech.
It's one or the other man, not both.
>3. It's stable.
Complete bullshit and you damned well know it. I've been using Linux off and on since the first distro, Slackware, was released and it's never proven to be more stable than any given Windows install on a huge variety of hardware.
>4. No or few viruses / malaware are written for Linux.
Because it has so little market share nobody gives a fuck but if so desired don't think for a second that it can't be brought down, it's been done before and it'll be done again - just recently yet another major exploit was discovered in the Linux kernel so yes it fucking happens.
>5. Privacy - Linux won't gather and sell your personal information
The operating system rarely does, it's the services you happen to use that make use of such data.
>6. No advertisements
No Linux distro comes with an ad blocker by default, and as just noted it ain't perfect.
>7. Easier to update.
And it's just that much easier to fuck up the entire system when something goes wrong and some package dependency can't be satisfied or some conflict happens someplace - if it hasn't happened to you then consider yourself very fortunate but I've had to fix hundreds if not thousands of installations over the decades when some update fucks everything up. Protip: not all Linux distributions use APT as the package manager.
>8. Highly customize-able, many choices for your interface.
No standardization means problems more often than not.
>9. The applications are also free (in both senses)
Can't have it both ways.
>10. It's compact, the OS itself takes up very little space.
Right, because we're all still using Pentiums at 60 MHz with 1MB of RAM and 10MB of hard drive space, right.

You're dismissed.

If professional software (not gayyms) weren't ultra juice and supported linux, I would use it.

Mac and linux are the same shit! Apple supports drivers and is basically plug and play compared to Linix which isnt. Learn about UNIX noobs.

No AAA game titles on Linux. Windows has the best game developers because it pays the best to be a Win developer.
