Come home, white man.

Sorry not trans.

Sorry not a jeet

I transitioned to linux

>>714278351 (OP)
But I'm on Windowz 7 already.

>>714278351 (OP)
For the first time in my life instead of dualbooting linux for a few weeks and then deleting, I am running only linux on my ssd and I'm loving it and don't think I will be switching back to Windows unless Microsoft somehow fixes it.

The transition from Windows to Linux is like the transition from 30 fps to 60 fps. You don't really realize how slow Windows is until you use something else.

The UI is so much faster and smooth than Windows and every game I've tried has worked with no issues.(Fedora + KDE btw)

I would use something other than Windows 11, but Linux is a broken piece of shit that just doesn't work at all, and OSX is even worse.

What about that one OS, Tiny 11 or something like that? i vaguely recall it being shilled as a less bloated version of 11

Ubuntu Cinnamon is my home now

>>714278847
>Fedora + KDE
Based, same. Its so good.

>>714278973
>Linux is a broken piece of shit that just doesn't work at all
how are people still getting filtered by bootloaders in 2025 LOL

>>714278973
You might actually be retarded.

>>714278351 (OP)
I hate OSX and Windows 11 is a shitty copy of OSX

MS raised the cpu requirement from 8th gen Intel core minimum to 11th gen with the latest version of Windows 11, so that cuts off a lot of people from upgrading. Assuming they don't install 11 LTSC which doesn't have those requirements.

>tons of mods don't work because Linux OS is case sensitive for folder paths

>>714279908
If a mod doesn't work in Linux you most likely didn't do a dll override

>>714278351 (OP)
My only experience with Win11 was having to downgrade it because it had shit audio drivers.

>>714280034
Nope, it's simply because Linux paths are case sensitive. So mods would have "different" file names than what's specified in their config.

I'd love to use linux OS instead of windows but I'm a completely normal guy with no idea at all how to do anything to do with any of it

I don't have to engage with any Linux autism.

>>714280251
you can just us a VM if 32 bit shit is needed that badly in 2025

Some shit with outdated drivers like mint?

windows 11 is computer for niggers

>>714280187
Then learn? Install it on an old laptop or raspberrypi and start messing around with it. There are so many resources out there for assisting with this shit and its not hard to learn basic fucking terminal commands here. If you dont strive to learn more about the devices you use every day then you deserve to get assraped by Microsoft and Apple.

>>714278351 (OP)
I upgraded to w11 only to use that copilot assist function and show my dick to camera

>>714278351 (OP)
>white
huh?

Windows sucks yes, but as long as it's the NATIVE platform for PC gays Linux is never going to replace it.

>>714280670
you could say 'then learn' to anything man, it's not as easy as that, I'm not technically minded and this all goes over my head, plus I don't find it interesting or engaging which makes it very hard to learn about something.

>>714278351 (OP)
Jeets are so hilariously incompetent they're driving record numbers of people to linux.

Fucking kill yourselves you shit colour parasites you are blight on the entire planet.

>>714280897
The Windows API and DirectX are native Linux APIs

Do cracks work on linux?

>>714280135
That's a solved issue these days. ext4 has casefolding support, so you can set a folder to case-insensitive lookups. Existing ex4 filesystems can be converted to use casefolding without issue now too.

>>714281194
I don't care or know what the fuck that is. If Yakuza games don't show Linux under their system requirements it's not native, simple as.
>inb4 "u're a retard..."
Yes. Get on my level, genius. Me and the other retard boys run the world.

Walls are caving in. I might try abroad.

>>714278973
Linux distros aren't really broken, but they do ALL have absolutely fuck-horrible user experience.
No matter the desktop environment. NO fucking exception they're all like 20 years in the past.

>download a file or try to upload a file
>for some fucked up reason the file picker is not the same as the file browser
>no thumbnails in this one
If I want to upload a specific picture on 4chan I have to literally go there in the normal file browser myself and drag it here. The "open file" shit doesn't show thumbnails.

It's really mental how trash the quality of life of any linux distro is.

>>714281257
Yes I pirate games exclusively and they work. You can install fitgirl repacks no problem too.

>>714278351 (OP)
Ever since I read that they would be cranking up the information and data collecting on Win 11 I decided to stick with WIndows 10

The jeetification of Microsoft was a mistake

>>714281346
Now multiply this esoteric information for every single game I need to play. "Oh, game didn't work properly? Well you should have tried "

Windows just works, and the few things that don't work have a fix on pcgamingwiki.

>>714278351 (OP)
Win11 is worse than Win10 in everything
In every single thing
I say this as someone who actually used it since it first appeared when you poor jeets didn't even have a compatible PC
Win11 is the most bugged windows I've ever seen (we're not talking about Vista, it was just unstable)
It's retarded, it's bad, some of the bugs persist FOR YEARS
THEY CAN'T FUCKING FIX SMALL ANNOYING BUGS FOR YEARS
And they keep adding worthless features that break something even more and then they don't it too

steam survey counts every single login on a single computer so you see w11 get better numbers than it should thanks to net cafes in asia having a gorillion people sharing one computer.

>>714278351 (OP)
Windows 11 is quite literally the most disgusting OS to ever been crafted by humankind, because it's purposefully designed to be as obnoxious and disgusting as possible, macos for example has terrible UX, but at least you can see that they're not purposefully making a terrible OS, but being somewhat harmstrung by management not allowing them to have much things per release, but holy shit, literally who in the fucking hell thought that making the whole OS a fucking browser window was a good idea?

My 2700k isn't supported so I'll stick to win10, thanks.

Just give it a try. It's a normal desktop OS like Windows, once you decide on a distro (just go with default Ubuntu if you can't decide) and install it, you don't have to "learn" anything any more than you had to learn Windows or your phone OS.

i think india made their own distro for the government to use.
the other thing is that linux will run on any shit tier computer from a decade+ ago unlike modern windows operating systems.

>>714284257
They need servers to scam people and they can't do that on pirated windows servers.

Linux Mint is the superior default distro

That's weird because your post didn't include a single valid argument.

I already use Windows 11. It's fine.

>>714278351 (OP)
As a white man I hate people making things about race. Reason #2071 why I will avoid the spyware ridden bloatware that is win11. It already requires like 3gb of your ram just to run the base os and god forbid you have a low power pc where antimalware services will steal 80% or more of your cpu usage.

>>714284584
windows 10 was the last time microsoft officially created an OS-tan, i think this is the greatest indicator that windows 11 is a truly soulless product.

This is why nobody likes you linuxniggers, normies can do everything on their windows machines, power users can bend windows to behave like a decent offline machine, but linux is ALWAYS requiring some tinkering shit for every little thing, if it's not on the app store you have to curl the grep of the cd of the mkdir of the whatever the fuck. It's tiring.
You're never crawling out of that shithole without a better user experience, but all the faggots that want MUH FREEDOM have their heads so far up their asses that they can't make an UI for it.

There's zero chance of this happening since Microsoft is spreading their cheeks to AI, hard. It's going to be more bloated than 11, AI nonsense built into the OS and thrown into everything, uninstallable Copilot, etc.

Honestly, I hope Microsoft is using the rog ally x as a beta test for a light weight gamer edition for windows the same way the steam deck was just a beta test for steam OS. I'm fully self aware that Linux is better in the long run, but like >>714285894
said, everything just fucking works on windows. I don't want to spend an hour trying to fix anydesk on bazzite. I don't want to troubleshoot why Linux keeps shoving my steam cloud saves in random folders. I just want to play game. There's too much tinkering involved with something aiming for a concole like experience.

Why should I?

>>714286321
Yes, that's the point.
A normal person is not going to memorize commands just to use the goddamn OS.

So i installed mint last week
Last time i used linux it was in 2010, with me jumping hoops trying to run GTA vice city on wine
I've been absolutely blow away by how everything just works out of the box now, the most work i had to do was to select a different proton version
I'm so glad M$ is dropping windows 10, if they didn't i would've kept going on that bloated piece of shit for years to come

Am home already, brown man.

I am already home. I made my custom XML file to debloat win 11 clean install and a cheap key on scdkeys. Works like a charm. Idk whats the deal with Linux fags. I think they think they are some kind of tech prodigies or some shit.

>>714288510
this was because post ww2 japan rapidly modernized and became world renowned for building the best tech
i think these lines from back to the future 3 with 1950s doc epitomizes it
>doc: no wonder this circuit failed, it says "made in japan"
>marty: what do you mean, doc. all the best stuff is made in japan
>doc: unbelievable
by the 90s though, japan entered the lost decades, where their economy stopped growing and they fell behind, plus their population started aging meaning less young people with new tech adoption getting into the industry. just a higher ratio of old boomers maintaining the old status quo that was cutting edge decades ago. the illusion persisted into the 2000s, but these days i think most people are aware that japan is lagging behind in tech literacy.

Why cant we talk about windows without immediate linuxfag derailment? its annoying
anyway windows 11 works for me because it actually has photoshop, which i need for various manga editing stuff i do. an os without it is not an option, because gimp is fucking unusable. anyone who calls gimp a viable alternative is insane

Nigga nobody pays for Windows. Anytime you buy any pc that comes usable out of box it will be running on Windows and you have a lifetime subscription for updates. You can glash an ISO and put it on any compatible device. They want you, BEG you to use Windows. Has nothing to do with income, and in fact being poor more likley means you're going to be using the grody mass public metro equivalent to an OS, Windows.

Just disable that with windows debloater, suddenly the search bar works like a search bar

Yeah dude, I have a couple perfectly good computers that Microsoft is trying to tell me needs to go landfill because it can't handle Windows 11. Like dude, I installed linux on one of them recently and it's going way faster than it ever did with Windows 10. My computer was never the problem, it was Windows that was the problem all along. They keep making it slower by introducing "features" that no one wants.

The next decade is going to be terrible for computers running Windows and macOS, because you're going to have mandatory AI crap baked into the OS that will make it impossible to stick with a computer made five years ago.

It might be surprising for a wintard but good system doesn't eat huge amounts of RAM when it's not necessary. And when it is under load high efficiency swap space (zram) and great memory management also come in handy, which is still not available for wintards

did you not understand the point of my post?
using 16% was in no way me saying "you have a lot of unused RAM that means its bad"
it was me telling you how having 0% swap in a system with 64GB ram is fucking useless
even back when my old pc had 8GB RAM i never used swap on my linux distros because it was not necessary, the devices never froze of reached max ram usage, for that same reason you're gloating about: linux is more efficient with ram than windows so you can do more with less.
you're just a dumb fucking retard who doesn't understand what the main purpose of swap was, stop trying to turn this into "hurrr you must be windows user for seeing low ram usage durrr", otherwise you're not getting further replies from me if you're going to deflect like such a retard.

You're a fucking retard with a reading comprehension of a street shitting Indian, I told you that there are workloads that use up to 64 GiB of RAM and having efficient swap space is great in that cases, but browsing 4chinz and arguing with cum guzzlers like you isn't quite such workload so it sits there waiting for its turn, and since it's a fucking zram it doesn't take space on disk like traditional zram nor does it hurt the performance because of efficient memory management, and you would've understood that if you weren't brown.

Pushing cached files to ZRAM and back takes less time than having to read all that shit again, even from an NVME. And keeping an extra GB or two completely unused also helps for when you ever play a bing bing wahoo, as memory allocation is faster.
ZRAM has compression ratios of 2.5-3.0 for me at compression level 1.
It's basically free RAM.

Microsoft announced Windows Defender for Windows 10 is getting support til 2028 now. I think they are starting to face the music no one fucking wants Windows 11. If this is the case I think I'll just stick with 10. If I get security updates still there is no loss.
