Quick glance on my installed programs, and I count 7 apps I heavily use in windows 11 with no linux version, nor a clear equivalent that could replace them without extensive hacks that may or may not work and be a total waste of my time.
Also a funny thing: I installed Debian with KDE and then GNOME last year on another PC, and guess what? KDE & GNOME came bloated with a bunch of apps, games, office suite, code editor and other shit.
I thought the whole shtick of Linux/FOSS was that it didn’t make any default choices for you. That’s what I always read here when people cry about windows bloat.
The same cleanup & customization did for windows 11 I had to do to Debian KDE and then GNOME.
Point is: it’s not that easy and being and insufferable jerk about it its not gonna solve it. Let people use what they want.
Nice gatekeeping… people like you are why these platforms are never taking off.
My home server runs debian, my main PC runs windows 11, and I have an iPhone and it all works very well. I don’t like circlejerks, they’re stupid, specially when they’re loudly incorrect.
Lemmy has a massive circlejerk problem to the point that you can’t even mention using proprietary stuff because you get screamed at by keyboard warriors.
