Another problem that GNU/Linux faces is that people are incredibly biased when
comparing the two operating systems. Whatever little fault GNU/Linux has is immediately regarded as an absolutely
crucial flaw that will forever prevent it from being usable by anyone but a
fat, smelly nerd living in his mother's basement. This is completely ignoring that Windows is far from faultless, too. It's also
inconsistent as hell, it's buggy, and drivers also don't always "just work". If anything, the current popular DEs on GNU/Linux are more consistent than
anything Microsoft has ever produced. They work better out of the box than any
crapware-laden computer you can buy at a store. If you're not using absolutely
obscure hardware, it should be usable. In fact, the Linux kernel probably
supports more hardware and does it better than Windows ever has. My point stands: GNU/Linux is perfectly usable on the desktop and has been so
since years. One of the major things hampering its adoption are people like you
who spread FUD about it. |
