The only thing Android shares with Linux desktop/server Linux is the kernel, the entire rest of the OS built on top of it is completely different so it’s a pointless comparison. Wh…

This is guaranteed just to be windows reinstalling drivers it thinks the laptop needs by default for basica functionality (it is considering the Lenovo service a standard system dr…

That’s absolutely not a normal or expected experience whatever. A standard, normal Linux install (not any weird experimental stuff like trying to install stuff to ntfs drives or ru…

Nah, nvidia drivers on Linux 2026 is hands down just as easy as AMD. I’ve had no more issues than running an AMD card and everything works flawlessly. They’re 100% right at the abs…

Nothing about intertia means it’s ever “too late”, just that there’s a lag between a change (positive or negative) and its effect. People said the exact same thing about Linux ever…

This is definitely a Mac-apologia to the extreme argument. Microsoft isn’t event the one that came up with the layout, it was the IBM compatible PC keyboard layout that was specifi…

Eh, no. My experience working in web accessibility, it seems most visually impaired individuals have a preference for windows, seemingly because it has the most mature set of acces…

Gotta be something hardware specific to you like the other guy said cause I literally just did a fresh fedora install on a 4K display a few months ago with zero issues, and majorit…

That’s not a KDE issue though, blame the themes

I don’t like macOS or GNOME, but if I had to use something from that paradigm I think GNOME is way better. GNOME feels like how Mac users talk about macOS. Whereas macOS just has n…

esim is maybe my favorite mobile innovation ever. As someone who also travels a ton I could not stand dealing with a bunch of physical sims and would just end up not even bothering…

Hasn’t been true for years now as a 10+ year mac and windows user

This isn't accurate. Only ~30% of Fedora contributions come from Red Hatters, they specifically changed the council structure so much more appointments can be selected by the commu…
