    Lol windows is still easier to use unless you use Linux and not windows for a long time.

    I’m using both and there is no comparison for ease of use.

        Man, fuck editing the registry. The duplicate entries, the non-standard locations, the UI of regedit… I had to dig through it so much when I was supporting a corporate launcher application in a Windows facility. Did the Windows dev decide to write their data into multiple registry entries, an INI file, an environment variable… or maybe all of the above? Find out on the next episode of Fuck My Life!

      Windows is harder to use if you used nothing and compare linux with windows.

      I bought my first laptop less than a month ago and started using linux. Its hell to run windows.

      I didn’t have wifi when i bought it and i cant even start it because it needs network-a lot of data. Only since I remember hearing a bypass method, I seatched for it and ran OOTB\BYPASSNRO in CMD to skip online setup. Then there is all kinds of bloatware which uses more than half of the ram. It was too unusual to see apps on your menu and when you tries to open them it starts downloading… Like what the fuck, even a “sponsored” or “reccomended” label is not there. Looks like a normal app. I switched to Fedora the first day!

      Comparing the experiences, KDE was much much smoother and feature complete. Later afyer using it for long, I felt like KDE or linux in general is lacking something, like i want this to be more improved, but i realised I should be greatful to what I have when I booted back to windows… The UX was pathetically worse than KDE. Windows UI is inconsistant as hell which exposes old windows 10/7/(xp?) UIs ocassionaly shows up. You know what? The right click menu has a button which shows the right click menu of windows 10 having the same options💀

      There is more. When i search something, it shows web result instead of the app i was searching for. It takes 50% of my ram at idle even after removing the McAfee shit and other unnecessary apps. It shows disk read/write operations, network traffic, and cpu usage all the time at idle. The wallpaper looks like low bitrate video(idk why this one hapened, its one of the wallpaper that comes with windows). Advanced settings are same settings but from an old windows version. I disabled animations so that windows may be a bit more faster but turns out the animations were hiding the slowness. Also more you customise, more glitches you have.

      Anyway my experience only involves my laptop and android phone, so no other devices whom doesnt want to support linux, and i have amd hardware
