because the majority of Linux users are toxic, fragmentation of Linux with 100000000 distributions which are useless.

>nooo not the heckin toxicity of the Loonix community :soycry:

/u/No_Cover4954 you are a kitty b-word

It is use friendly but it's not stupid friendly (like windows) , they don't care to make it stupid friendly

Fragmentation and dot it yourself mentality is its own undoing. Oh and "I like it this way so everyone can frick off".

How is it not user friendly? I use kubuntu and the kde plasma desktop environment is very similar to windows, you have a startmenu, settings, dolphin for file management, discover for installing your applications, you can right click your desktop and configure a wallpaper, I put my bluetooth gamepad in pairing mode and connect it to my pc, i start steam and play the same games that I played on Windows. In most everyday use cases its very similar to what windows users are familiar with.

I think Linux is pretty user friendly. What are you expecting exactly?

It's not popular on desktop because no big company was backing it as a desktop OS in the beginning or at least they weren't aiming to make it popular, and by the time Chrome OS came along Windows and Mac OS were well established. Is that what you are talking about? It has nothing to do with the lack of community effort to make it user friendly. Chrome OS and Steam OS have made big efforts in improving the state of Linux desktop but it's very hard to overthrow a well established duopoly. Just like how Windows failed to enter the Smartphone market while Mac OS (iOS) and Linux (Android) succeeded.

What he probably expects is a 1:1 copy of Windows

That's exactly what i want from linux [ :marseysmoothbraintyping: ]

Loonix hater going mask off that he wants linux to be exactly like winblows lmao

Because of diehard terminal elitists and allergies to implementing GUIs.

/u/notaduck448_ nobody cares, just ignore them if you don't like terminal elitists, there are plenty of linux DEs that are better than The trashy Windows and mediocre macOS GUIs, misinformed linux hater.

This is an incredibly, profoundly out of touch take.

First of all "Linux" isn't a company.

Secondly, and more ridiculously that it has to be explained, the state of user friendliness in the Linux family of operating systems has grown by several orders of magnitude since its inception.

Even just following Ubuntu from 2006 to now I've seen vast improvements. And Ubuntu itself back then WAS a vast improvement in user friendliness compared to other distros back then.

This isn't just a case of you having a different opinion than me. You're really just... Objectively wrong. I remember compiling a tutorial in 2006 to get the wmp54gs wireless card working on Ubuntu. It was a very common card. Many steps were involved. Feisty Fawn in 2007 broke my tutorial. It has been literally over a decade since getting common wireless cards to work required that much effort. There may be a handful that aren't well supported but it's more likely these days by far that you'll have no trouble with it than that you will.

Widespread adoption of Linux desktop is not an agreed apon goal of the Linux community.

Linux is a semi-descendant of Unix, a mainframe OS designed for an attending well informed administrator and remote users with less knowledge.

Today Linux is a server OS first, everything can be done with the console becase most instalations don't even have a desktop gui, this is the development direction.

Your asesment is correct, somone good with Linux (an administrator) can set it up for a grandmother or in my case Wife (user) and it will work great. But you need that administrator arround who knows what is going on.

Linux dumbed down enough to be safe for the masses unassisted is Android & ChromeOS.

You will meet Linux where it is or you won't use it.

:#marseytruthnuke: #3 but that is a massive cope lmao

Because by the time you created one, the next linux guy said your OS sucks and should switch to a newer linux.

https://old.reddit.com/r/linuxsucks/comments/1iz9tuo/why_has_linux_made_no_effort_to_become_more_user/mf16nwy/?context=8

In my experience, most of Linux's "user unfriendliness" comes from different distros doing things differently and making it harder to google "how to do ___ in Linux?"

There's not really a solution that doesn't defeat half the purpose of Linux existing, so… 🤷🏻‍♂️

:#marseytruthnuke: #4 and it should stay that way

What brings to someone to browse /r/linuxsucks regularly? At least with something like /r/winblows, you are fighting the big guy, but what do linux haters want: to bring the market share down from 2% to 1%?

Some people feel that BSD was the superior OS and should have filled the role that Linux does now. They make some good points but I've never used BSD.

But really, who is forced to use Linux? I complain about windows because I have to use it in some cases (VR gayming) and it sucks butt. If you're using Linux, it's either because you want to or because you're a SWE/sysadmin and should know that no better alternative exists.

I think animation studios use centos/rocky. Maybe they are the exception. Non technical people who have to use it because it's the industry standard.

BSD has cool features but is cucked out by its license. If BSD was ahead of linux when UEFI secure boot was getting drafted, no one would be running shit. Microsoft and others would lock down the bootloader of every modern computer and sell a locked down BSD to you for the privilege.
