Ubuntu, GNOME, Edge… I mean, it’s technically an upgrade. Just a disappointing one.

I want you to stay this way. Keep being an ignorant little goober. Nobody needs you and you’re not important. You understanding basic political theory is not integral to anything. Please keep on trucking.

Imagine criticizing Debian for instability.

God damn you’re salty and it’s awesome.

I personally am only worried about data loss, not data theft. But I do take privacy relatively seriously nonetheless.

That’s the best part, it can never really “pay off.” It can only mitigate. Hardly seems worth it to me. Alas.

There it is

I’m literally reading your posts and responding to your words.

The real issue is that even today, some apps (Firefox, gedit, some terminals) don’t adjust their scaling to the new screen

This shows you dont know what fractional scaling is otherwise you would have used the term.

I work in Linux as a daily driver for work and personal. I don’t care what the tools are, but they need to work and stay out of the way. Right now, Wayland implementation of multi monitor for my hardware is too much bother, I’ll try it again in a year.

This is you being stubborn because you’re justifying your inaction based on false manufactured premises.

I have no objections to Wayland itself, but I value the kind of stability xfce gives me, which is stable, predictable, and gets out of the way. Right now, on my hardware, Wayland/gnome is not there.

This shows you don’t understand what Wayland is because you compared a compositor protocol to a desktop environment.

Removed by mod

The fact that you’re comparing Wayland to XFCE tells us you’re not entirely sure what you’re doing. One is a compositor and the other is a desktop environment.

Your problems are with GNOME. I dont even think you could define what X11 and Wayland are based on your posts, much less articulate why one is better than the other

Start by reading about Wayland. Don’t make shit up and defend a position you can’t even articulate. It’s cringe.

You seem to think otherwise, which was embarrassing.

Are you upset that I can run any program on Linux? Why?

You asked if they can run. The answer is yes.

You’re the one shifting to “may they run, p-pleaze”.

Learn the basics my man. You seem curious, go read instead of guessing.

I admit defeat.

I can run any software designed for Linux or Windows. Period.

If a package doesn’t function, it’s because the developers arbitrarily decided to disable it for capitalist reasons. Not because it won’t work.

So the answer to “can Linux run X game made for Windows” is always yes. Always.

Yes.

I can run adobe software in Linux.

I cannot relate in any way. I would tell these people to figure it out themselves and that they’re ignorant and ungrateful. You’re also a very nice person for putting up with that.

How is continuing to use their product (thus being farmed for telemetry and other revenues) defiant in any way?

The reality is you and others are afraid of change. There is no windows-only program I can’t run. Your defiance is futile and you’re the only one suffering, not Microsoft.
