Coming on Lemmy and complaining because there are too many Linux users is like going in to a brothel and complaining that there are too many hookers (lemmy.ml)

Lol... I was a religious Arch user for a long time. I miss running Linux as my primary OS in s lot of ways, although when I do it again it'll be an ephemeral distro, but I had to get things done and the support and prioritization of apps that make me productive right isn't there. I don't blame open source developers though but large software companies that deprioritize and fudge cross platform software.

Despite Microsoft having done some contribution to open source, their culture is still very toxic and counterproductive. Graphics card makers have also intentionally locked vGPU support for consumers, almost like they're intentionally preventing efficient Windows on Linux support.
