Windows users, you won't know until you try it out! 🐧

@itsfoss Using #Linux requires some way of "flexibility" in "thinking". That is not what Windows users are known for. "Learning" seems to be painful somehow. But that is no problem. Linux is winning eventually. It is slow, but guaranteed. Just look where Linux is running these days. simply EVERYWHERE! #OpenSourceOrBust

@itsfoss it never has been better for #LinuxGaming . Yet there is still a long way to go, until the last developers see that #Linux is here to stay and can't be ignored anymore. Linux is the past, the present and the future. And just as Microsoft once said, Linux is CANCER ! It slowly but surly eats Microsofts former marketshare, especially on the #dEsktop. ( on servers , appliances and embedded there is no more competition ;] ) Linux FTW , all the way! #OpenSource OR BUST!

@itsfoss no need for #ubuntu themes, since i banned Ubuntu from my computers, for forcing even more #snaps and "#ransomware" (or what is software called these days that comes like "you can haz updates, IF YOU PAY US!" ) in my face.

@itsfoss I switched from to something "minty" without that crappy bullshit. Forcing snaps and "ransomware" in my face isn't going to fly with me any longer. You need to drop ubuntu too. Because the won't stop until the numbers of installations drop.

Ubuntu can handle RPM packages if they are converted into DEB packages.

Here's how:

@Axel1973@mastodon.social avatar

@itsfoss #ubuntu these days turned into #ransomware . they keep package updates away from you, until you pay with personal data or money for their subscription programm. i stopped using it since.

@nixCraft and anything based or related on/to RH is DEAD TO ME, after the latest stupid stunt by those IBM's puppets. Even there are nice new clones, i won't use them any longer, just to reduce RH's "market share" if you can call it that. Same with Canonical's/UBUNTU's "you will swallow SNAPS weather you like it or not" act. Starting at some "critical mass" those companies start to lose their connection to ground. Time to !! YES to !

@nixCraft Simply STOP USING #REDHAT BASED DISTROS COMPLETELY !! Don't feed the troll! They don't want "freeloaders". So stop to maintain their marketshare by using RH related distros. Switch to something more relaxed and community oriented. That saves you a ton of LUBE, if you hate when your butthole burns, after getting F'ed by RH.

@itsfoss Let's see if they also drop their #DRM stunt as they did with their #Mac and #Windows users!! Owners reported "locked" features, hidden behind a "registration wall". So a #linux support alone is NOT ENOUGH ! STOP DRM! Open source any feature and driver, THEN WE TALK !

@itsfoss Finally a new face since FruityLoops shut down their shop for Linux users. I welcome #Linux support even for commercial closed source software to a degree... BUT... QUESTION IS, will it be REALLY YOURS, AFTER YOU PAYED FOR IT ??? Talking #drm , #subscription based and #online requirements here! IF there is any kind of #DRM that prevents you from "keeping it", including ALL add-ons, on changing hard- and software over time, IT WOULD BE A NO GO TO ME !!! It's either MINE OR THEM'S !
