Who switched to Linux this year?

Your mom

>>62284171
Install gentoo

I just installed Linux Mint on my laptop, I study computer science on nooblevel and my teacher recommended Mint. I like working with the terminal

Give me one legit reason to switch to Linux apart from privacy bullshit. Because right now that's the only argument penguin fags have.

I switched back to Windows after 4 years of Linux

>>62284234
also did the same about 3 months ago for my work laptop. some drawbacks (compatibility) but mostly improvements all around

Tried it, spent over 8 hours copy+pasting terminal commands to try make it not run like shit, even just trying to get a somewhat responsive feeling web browsing experience but even disabling chromium flags gives less hw compatibility than windows so I gave up and put Windows 10 back on.

I'll try again in another decade maybe.

>>62284253
making your desktop work how you want, using alternate window managers, updating all software at once

I switched back to Windows because I realized that I can run everything that sucks on Windows on Linux in a VM and this is 1000x better than the other way around.

Yeah me. Ran a Hackintosh first for a while until I got real tired of Apples locked down bullshit.

Running Arch w/ Plasma now. Not looking back.

>>62284253
It uses less disk space.
It is easy to grasp.
It is easier to troubleshoot.
Update system that works.
Better software license -> more comfortable to use as a user.

>>62284320
>It uses less disk space.
Literally irrelevant unless you run a 64GB ssd macbook air or some shit.
>It is easy to grasp.
Yeah, well... no.
>It is easier to troubleshoot.
If you know your way around, certainly. Not everyone knows /proc/ by heart though.
>Update system that works.
Unless you are on anything other than RedHat/Fedora/Debian stable in which case every update always breaks something.
>Better software license
Literally irrelevant.

>>62284352
H8ter

Last year i switched from linux to openbsd

>>62284253
>privacy bullshit
If you don't care about your privacy - you are very stupid kid.
That being said if you are not a dev - GNU/Linux is worse than Windows in almost every way. It's unusable for any kind of professional work and as an entertainment platform its capabilities are very limited.
So yeah, looks like there is no reason for to use it (at least for you).

Me.
And my mom, unironically

>>62284171
I've switched in 2012

Is Kali any good?

>>62284352
>Literally irrelevant unless you run a 64GB ssd macbook air or some shit.
I personally use a laptop w 256gb ssd and it matters to me.
I have windows in a VM for a single application I use once a year and that image is 55gb.
That is relevant to me.
>Not everyone knows /proc/ by heart though.
because sane people use /sys/
>>Better software license
>Literally irrelevant.
The software license is the main reason why I use it.
When I spend money on computers, whether it is for my workplace or privately, I don't have to set aside money for licenses.
Privately, I avoid applications that nag me to purchase it or I avoid malicious features.
Professionally, I avoid worrying about the extra costs of adding another system or who to contact when I need to set things up.
If something doesn't work, I ask my employer if it is okay that I fix it the proper way and they usually say yes, so I get to contribute to open source projects while I work.
This is mostly relevant because of my profession, but still.

>>62284488
not for a daily use distro

>>62284511
>I use once a year and that image is 55gb.
See? My Linux VM that I need to develop databases etc. is 20GB.
>because sane people use /sys/
Sane people use a system that just werks.
>The software license is the main reason why I use it.
Is this your main pickup line?

I tried several distros but they are all buggy as shit.

My switch is pretty gradual, so maybe me? I think I started dual booting on my macbook after new years, but I started dipping my toes in LiGNUx like 6 years ago.

First I dual booted Ubuntu/windows, which you could just set up from inside Windows without a usb or anything, super conveniently. I don't think they still have that, but it was what made me start.

Then about 3-4 years ago I installed Debian, writing over all my viruses and proprietary software, but that was just because I had got another laptop (the macbook) and felt safe. I basically only used the new one, and still do.

Then 2-3 years ago I bought an old x220, and installed debian, then arch, and now fedora. I really liked fedora scientific, so I installed that on all three previously mentioned laptops around christmass.

Oh yeah, and I tested OpenSUSE on my oldest laptop last week.

I switched from GNU/Linux to Chrome OS.

>>62284389
I just got nothing to hide. And it doesn't really bother me that the most the botnet can do to annoy me is to give relevant ads based on my google searches.

been jumping back and forth for around 20 years.

Started on Red Hat 5, then Debian... went back to XP...then 2000, then hopped on Red Hat for a bit again, back and forth back and forth. Stuck with 7 for its lifespan, went to 8 and 8.1.. that was alright, used 10 for about a year before realising the start menu cant even be fixed so going from the release candidates to gold was no different. Ended up on Mint, Debian, Arch, Antergos (yeah yeah same shit i know), Ubuntu, Manjaro, back to Windows 10 after Red Stone to see.... got fucking annoyed within a month and back to Manjaro.

Got fucking annoyed with how utterly shit and pointless Linux is still in the year 2017 and went back to Windows 10.... before giving up on Windows 10 after 3 days because it still wants to do forced reboots while i'm in the middle of doing shit at 5am and you can't disable the forced reboots not to mention the zillion fucking trackers its connecting to constantly flinging DNS requests up the wazoo....

and now i'm back on Manjaro. Originally stuck with this because fglrx still works with a downgraded xorg and I need fglrx because open source drivers for linux despite what everyone will loudly and rudely tell you, they fucking suck shit

the linux community is mostly snarky elitist assholes and even if you join one somewhere and ask a simple question someone will come along and be rather abrupt and rude and pretend they know exactly what the problem is and proclaim how its such a simple fix.... but then after you follow a bit of their advice they simply disappear and never return because they literally have no fucking clue what they are talking about , I think the shit community mostly is what drives a lot of new users away.

so for now, Windows 10 is better in every single way except for a shit start menu, shit forced reboots, shit privacy,

Linux is better because: ..... I can reboot when I tell it to. that's about it for me.

20 years using various linux distros and it's still pozz'd

>>62284827
>and you can't disable the forced reboots
The option to disable that is literally there. How the fuck do people have so much trouble dealing with Windows' update policy? Or am I being trolled?

>>62284171
Bot me but i'd like to. The only things stopping me are photoshop cs6 and ms office, both work like shit on wine and powerpoint doesn't even open.

>>62284790
>I've got nothing to hide

That is the dumbest fucking statement ever conceived. Everybody has something worth hiding. Something personal. And everybody deserves the right to their privacy. Just because you're comfortable with some company or group knowing every detail about your life, doesn't mean other people are. How would you feel if you knew that every day when you left for work or school, that some asshole was walking into your house and going through everything you own? Even if you had 'nothing to hide' you would still feel violated. Its like someone looking over your shoulder ever second of every hour of every day of every month of every year of your god damn life.

yep, that's also bothers me. 99% of applications are below shovelware standards. You literally can't do shit on your system if it's not some kind of media consumption or dev work.
I've got a Debian install on my notebook which I mostly use to browse the web, IRC, etc. but Windows 10 on my main rig where I do all my work and spent the most time in not going anywhere anytime soon.

>20 years and ReactOS still isn't even XP level
If ReactOS could even just get to NT 6.0 level compatibility I would switch in a heartbeat, it would be literally everything I want in an OS, my dick gets hard just thinking about it.

>>62284827
>shit start menu
You can resize it, if you drag it all the way to the left it you get a much more 9x-esque start menu like in pic related. Why this isn't the default look I have no idea.

>shit forced reboots
It doesn't force a restart unless you ignore an update for a long time (2 weeks?), which you shouldn't be doing anyway. If you must postpone it even further, you can disable the automatic rebooting in the task scheduler.

>shit privacy
Can't really do anything about this, it's inherent in Windows. You can reduce it quite a lot if you use the enterprise edition but it still spies on you about as much as 7 does.

Also Windows 10 uses p2p to partially deliver updates by default, make sure you disable that, it's a big source of 10's network usage.

I did 5 months ago. I tried to install Linux before but I always came crawling back to Windows. This time I haven't booted back into Windows yet. Feels good. I wanted a system that didn't come with any thing preinstalled apart from the bare essentials with a nice DE. KDE neon fit the bill.

I tried to join some mp4s the other day for a friend and I literally downloaded and tried all of the "best" video editing software available

Kdenlive, open shot, videocut or whatever the fuck, something starting with C.... basically all of them I found in the best software lists

every single one of them was a huge piece of shit. All Linux apps are just shit, I get it... "they are free if you dotn like it make your own"

the UI looks like shit on pretty much every linux app ever made to go along with how shit the software is I guess.

yes it's more stable than Windows, but that's completely pointless when it's near next to useless for pretty much everything you want a fast computer for in the first place

>>62285162
>"best" video editing software
There is no such thing as best in any part of any linux system.

>>62285162
Video editing software is one of the only areas in GNU/Linux that software is lacking, and this is coming from someone who's done lots of pro video editing. The rest of this post is bait or underageb&.

>>62285135
Just grab your start menu and resize it like you would a normal window, it should look like that if you make it as thin as it can go

>>62285068
>It doesn't force a restart

it forces one "after hours" all the fucken time, and you can only move when "after hours" are you can't tick a box that says fuck you i dont want you to forcibly reboot my machine

even if you make changes to the registry to stop it the next time windows does an update and you reboot it changes it and you're back to where you started anyway

I use Classic Start and that's Ok, the start menu is still completely fucked though. How can they take something so basic and completely fuck it up I will never know

>hi im cortana

fuck off, I dont want to use you

>disable cortana

>>62285204

it was shotcut I was using in the end, was the only one that would let me export an mp4 without just closing itself down mid way through.

In the settings menus, half the text is bold and half the text is normal. What dumb cunt thought that was a good idea when designing it.

none of that was bait, unfortunately, I truly fucking despise pretty much 95% of software on Linux systems because it looks like shit, runs like shit or simply doesn't do the shit it's meant to do

>>62285213
Not since 1607 unfortunately, they actually reorganized shit. It's the one thing about the start menu that makes me unnecessarily mad. They had a good thing and ruined it.
You can still set it so that it shows the app list, but I like that version posted (from 1511) much better, have access to most used programs, folders, and an app list if needed.

>>62285245

i installed ubuntu gnome a few months ago. had to get rid of windows 10. it was getting slower and slower the more i used it. The creators update really bogged it down even more.

I think my problem now is there is no OS I'm actually happy with. So I just keep changing back and forth after getting completely fed up with the one i'm currently using.

do this every month or two for a few years. It's kinda annoying.

>>62285272
That sucks, I actually really liked that design. Felt like a good continued evolution of the start menu.

I did for about a week but I like things that just werk without having to spend hours autistically searching forums for answers to things that would take 30 seconds to do on macOS

>>62285268
I've done work in audio tech and grpahic design with GNU/Linux just fine. Just because you can't break free from Photoshit doesn't mean that other people can't be productive without it.

>>62284171
I did until my motherboard began to fuck up.

I think it also damaged another computer.
That said, when it wasn't breaking my computer I was quite impressed.

I want to but i just cant justify it.

Most of the software i use is only windows based and the ones that arent usually have performance drops or other issues.

I also cant for the life of me get graphical instalation interfaces to work properly on linux, so 9/10 times i have to do it through console, which i can do but when it comes to my personal life i dont want to have to use the terminal.

I like linux. I like open source. I use linux at work pretty much everyday, and while im nowhere near an expert at it im confortable enough with it.

But i just can't use it in my dayly computer usage.

>>62284253
I found it had a major performance boost.
Like a drastic performance boost.

>>62285473
And what does that extra performance give you? Nowadays modern machines are powerful enough to run W10 without any hiccups so "performance boost" in Linux isn't noticeable.

Mint is fine until you try and install Chromium via apt and it installs a 6 month old version that wont access any websites because it's too old and needs to be updated. Only to have the Linux Mint developer idiots on the forum say "use another browser, no one is maintaining that anymore for your release"

well funny because it's a LTS, LONG TERM SUPPORT... until you just release another dot release and completely fucking abandon it that is...

I'd say if you're looking to be incredibly pissed off lots of the time and frustrated and to raise your anger levels... yeah sure go ahead install Linux as your only OS.

Ohh, just cut the shit. Adobe got the industry by the balls. I've been working in graphic design for 5 years and not once have seen anyone using anything other than Adobe products (there were some weirdos who used Corel products for vectory stuff but it looks like they dead now). Even if you are willing to spent 3x more time on the same work by using inferior software - nobody else is and in this field compability of source files is very important.

Linux is not something anyone but ricer NEETs actually enjoy using. Unless you're doing programming or very basic stuff it sucks. macOS is probably the best modern operating system that is not duct-taped together freetard shit. Windows is not worth it at all, even if you're a gaymer you can just have an offline-only W7 or W10 install.

I've been using Debian since 1999. I haven't used Windows as a main OS on any machine since 2001 and around 2010 I stopped using it in VMs because of improved WINE support. I just use Debian, Fedora, OpenBSD, and some other hobbyist stuff like Haiku OS now. There's no good reason to run Winshit at all on your personal machines.

Me, I did it

I no longer have this worry in the back of my mind that everything I type is being transmitted and recorded by microsoft for future use against me and that's one of the bigger reasons I switched.

Things I like:
>Way easier to customize basically everything, ricing is genuinely fun in linux where in windows it's a huge pain in the ass to do it
>UI is more consistent in appearance and behaviour
>Repos and package managers + terminal commands make installing things available in a repo so fucking easy and simple
>Fonts are rendered better and it's way easier to switch fonts or install new fonts
>No worry about random malware infecting my computer
>Terminal is fun to use
>Pretty much every available file browser is better than windows'
>Desktop management is easier, I can customize keybindings for everything, tile windows, switch desktops, it's all easy
>Linux looks better than Windows once you've riced it up a bit
>If something goes wrong, you can probably fix it. Something goes wrong in windows it's usually a reinstall
>My computer no longer has random bursts of the CPU working at 100% for no discernible reason
>File search is a million fucking times better than windows
>Folder layout is simpler
>Linux actually knows how to use my SSD properly
>Driver manager (mint only apparently) makes it piss easy to manage the proprietary drivers I'm using

>Small niggling OS bugs like Firefox's default file browser being nautilus instead of dolphin, or VLC causing screen flickering when a webm finishes playing, or UI customization bugging out and requiring closing the system setting window and reopening it to fix
>The games I actually play (titanfall/planetside 2) aren't on Linux, and upcoming games I'd like to play either won't have linux ports, or won't get them for months/years
>WINE is a massive pain in the ass to set up for anything
>2/3rds of the image viewers available on linux lack BASIC FUNCTIONALITY like using right/left arrows to cycle through images in the current folder.
>There is nothing in linux that matches perfectly what irfanview does, it's sad - other programs have SOME of the same features, but none of what I tried had all of them
>There's no basic editor I could find that functions like mspaint
>When using the nautilus/nemo/whatever file picker that's default with firefox, I can't right-click to open/preview any files (e.g. if I want to see what a webm file is about).
>Pulseaudo is satan, volume automatically resets to default on reboot, and every fucking application has its own volume which in theory is great but in practice it means my system volume has to be low so I don't blow out my eardrums opening a program that defaults to 100% volume which means 10,000% volume if both it and my system are normal.

Last year, but this year I've exclusively used Linux and removed windows completely. I couldn't stand Windows' trash display. Everything has too much blur, including all fonts. It's almost as if it's made to make you blind and I don't understand why I haven't noticed that before.

Pros:
Stupid simple
Just Werks
As customizable as any other linux

Cons:
Updates take awhile to trickle downstream to you
You will be constantly harassed by linux hipsters who've installed some special snowflake version of arch or whatever because your distro is so simple and easy to use and REAL LINUX MEN only use a distro that requires endless hours of tinkering, configuring, and bashing your head against a wall

>>62284171
I did, but my reasons were nothing to do with ideology or privacy. I just have no reason to use any kind of local software anymore. Every one of my development tools is on AWS or similar. Office Suite is free online for basic use when needed. Games are stale and repetitive even when I do have the time to play them.

For all intents and purposes, local desktop OS is becoming irrelevant for me. So I just decided to kick off the paid service (Windows) and use the free one instead (Linux). I've used Linux VMs and containers for a long time at work so the transition was not hard. I guess someone who had no such experience would be disoriented for a while. I'm not an evangelist for either camp though so I don't care.

Jesus Christ, fool. At the very least think of all the wasted processing power you get when running that shit. Not to mention the relentless assaults and annoying interuptions from Microsoft. Using Windows 10 is like having a hyper-active autist in the room with you when you're trying to get shit done. I got rid of it because I couldn't even focus on what I wanted to do. You get work done in Windows allright, but it's all just work to feed their annoying ad machine.

i want to switch to it and like it, i really do, but i swear to fuck, every single fucking time i try to switch to linux it always falls apart into an unstable buggy piece of shit without me having to touch it at all

i've tried manjaro, various flavors of ubuntu, and most recently fedora. everything prior to fedora suffered from such a ridiculous slew of issues, sometimes inherent after install, and sometimes they'd crop up after very minimal use. fedora actually seemed to be working great for a time being, i was really liking it, but i stopped using it for a while. i booted into it yesterday, updated, booted into it today, and now it's totally fucked unless i switch to one of the older kernels.

and then there's always just minor annoyances, too. im not educated enough in linux to necessarily pinpoint where this problem comes from, but as an example, in every fucking distro i've used, the leftmost monitor is always considered the primary monitor for whatever reason, so if my secondary monitor is to the left, new windows and desktop icons always default to that. or, just a second ago, i'm now unable to place any desktop icons on the upper 1/3rd of my desktop for whatever reason. it's just always weird bullshit like that. windows has its issues but at least it doesn't constantly pester me with tiny issues like this. i just use windows 7 to avoid most of the windows 10 cancer

if anybody wants to recommend a distro that actually fucking justwerks im all ears. for the record, the DE i've been using is XFCE

It's a convoluted pile of shit that is developed by RedHat (the NSA is their #1 customer) that adds an attack surface as big as the Linux kernel itself to your system as process #1. Security shit aside, the real problem is that it makes your OS no longer a UNIX clone because it insists on having your init system handle fucking everything and from a usability standpoint it's goddamned retarded.

Devuan is debian without System D. XFCE is the default DE. Ubuntu and Debian are practically the same Distro, but Debian is more malleable by default.

Linus supports it, Linux is his thing, he must have his reasons. And Linux was never intended to be Eunuchs.

>>62289795
Linus has always been a Fedorafag so it makes sense. I know that Linux was never supposed to be UNIX, but it's still a good design philosophy. In fact, Linux is just a kernel, so everything else is up to the person designing the OS. It just so happens that the System D design we have now is a shitty idea.

>>62289795
And yes, a large part of this may be that I no longer feel like I can trust "init" to do the sane thing. You all presumably know why.

It's not at all that ironic when you actually bring context into the picture. Other communities can't really afford to pay for quality products and services so they turn to free software (majority of work done largely by privileged first worlders) to compensate.
And then on the 'freedom' aspect, the GOP/Dems thoroughly enjoy fucking over their own citizens as long as they're getting paid so they have no problem supporting toxic corporations who stall innovation and general development. On top of really weird tax exceptions, largely based on religion, and you've got a stereotypically American disaster.

Gentoo is great for exotic CPUs and people that would be using FreeBSD otherwise. Slackware is the closest thing to a "normal" distro (Debian right behind it, but as of System Dicks I could hardly call it normal anymore. Devuan suffices.)

BUT Linux is amazing, it gives you total control over your computing - you are in charge + it's nice to always have newest technologies at use.

Cant play any decent vidya on it, performance boosts are pointless at this point

This is why I can't do it. This is why I can't take these fucking people seriously. It must be nice to live in mommy's basement and let her pay all your living expenses. It must be nice to be able to adopt whatever bullshit hippie "ethics" you want, no matter how misguided or idiotic they are, because you don't have to worry about rent, bills, or food.

>But it musn't stop you from using ethical software.
From which speech/blog of Stallman's was this taken?
>Just don't work with people who use Adobe.
Not practical or even possible.
>Just don't work
But this is why you think it is.

>Who switched to Linux this year?
I've first used Linux in like 2005, I think? (Puppy Linux). I'd read quiet a few books on it prior to that. Though the hardware support wasn't quiet as good back then, in a way, I like it because in those days NO ONE else was really doing it. Back then it had more of intimidation factor, which was really important too.

I switched back from 5 years of mint cinnamon on my desktop back to Windows 8.1 with classic shell because: pro audio hardware and programs

Fuck poettering and that laggy pulse audio abortion

>>62284171
In October 2016 to ubuntu to fedora to debian to centos to arch to debian to gentoo

>>62284171
I switched around two years ago.

yeah this year. windows always screws me over. debian hasnt yet

>>62284171
Thinking about it for a looong time.
Next step for me will be switching from 3DsMAX to Blender in a next year or so.
Also I'm building second rig for testing.
The only reliable solution for 2D graphic software problem on Linux for me is running photoshop cs6 in win7 VM in Linux. Sorry anons GIMP suck all the way in openning 4GB PSB files in CMYK mode. And thats the reason why you buy 32GB or even 64GB of RAM.

I moved my last Windows 7 installation to a VM if that counts.

>>62284171
Can't, I have a job.

just rebooted my computer and it says

cryptodrive not found

so look at that - now i'm back to wiping my fucking drive and reinstalling linux because something changed between the time I turned it off and on.. (nothing)

going back to win10 which just works. fonts look beautiful. shit works properly. spying I will have to put up with.

Just use a separate drive for each OS.

>>62284228
btw I run arch

Have you tried to ask on the Ubuntu Forums? They are usually ready to help anyone, especially in a situation like yours.

The thing is that someone can take one of your shitposts or messages or anything you do and broadcast it out of context to make you look like a racist or criminal and then fuck you in your little pink arse.

That being said, its probably too late for most of us and we will have to form our own country some day.

quakebabbys can't into overwatch

Switched last year nigga

>>62302724
I played overwatch for a while when it came out but it did not hold my interest.

>>62302122
Because current year isn't a valid argument and the terminal works beautifully for many things, even on Windows. For instance, I can't stand the gui for git on Windows. So I need to use a terminal emulator, which looks like ass but it's better than not being able to use one at all.

>>62302122
I am a Winfag but still like to use terminal. It's just more efficient for some tasks.

On the contrary, Ovewatch kiddies can't play Quake. Overwatch has an absurdly low skill ceiling, so just about everyone levels out at some point and there's a constant dick grabbing contest to try to be 1% better than everyone else. You have to be underage to think there would even be a comparison if QC wasn't trying to ride Overmeme's ass.

switched to kubuntu this year
