At the end of the day it is the handling and haptics that count. So let me give you some anecdotical experience. A few weeks ago when the new Fedora came out i tried it as a live system from usb keychain, out of curiosity. It was the xfce live respin. Anyways, long story short, clicked around for a while, wasn't impressed much, shut it down. Flicker, flicker, the usual console messages scrolled by, and then it was stuck trying to unmount somesuch yadda yadda yarr yarr... for minutes. I wasn't in a hurry and waited, curious
WHAT would happen. Nothing, just finally powering off after 2,5 to 3 minutes. I sat there and wondered: could it really be THAT slow? Was my usb-stick slow? Nope. Tried another stick, another laptop, even some other respins. Always the same. Dumbstruck of the audacity of the so called leader in Linux i just thought to myself that they must be on crack or
some other bad stuff. Because when i tried a few other systemd-free live systems on the same sticks and hardware everything just whooshed by. Why is that? Are they living in
a parallel universe? Do i have outliers in terms of hardware? At least in one case i don't think so because it is a very well supported Thinkpad which accepts almost anything i can throw at it, and the other a similar HP Elite Book. So there is that. Now what? bzzzt! https://youtu.be/ulvgWoChvBU?t=9 |
