Out of interest, what value do you think that a comment like that has, in a forum such as this? You're not likely to be informing people with information they're not already abundantly aware of.
Whereas the person you're responding to is adding value, for me at least. I am in what might be an edge-case position where I need to run software specific to Windows and, much more importantly run hardware that uses drivers which seemingly don't work on Windows 11 (I only learnt recently, whilst planning to finally 'upgrade').
I couldn't even begin to do what I do, ably and competently at least, in a Linux environment.
And I've had at least one laptop for general use running some flavour of Linux for about 16 years now.

- giancarlostoro 3mo agoMaybe not you, but many times I am asked what my setup looks like, because I game on Linux which is not as problematic as it used to be in the 2000s.
- oreally 3mo agoA lot of these no value, didn't ask, pro-linux comments are probably leftovers from linux software maintainer groups and it's passive aggressive culture. And we all know what kind of a role model that person used to be. They've been in that cesspool for too long to recognize how to interact with people. Condolences on your hardware problem btw. Give the windows 10 iot version a shot - it's a fairly quick install anyway.
- giancarlostoro 3mo agoI'm not from any of the above, just someone who kept trying Linux, and it didn't feel as ready or good as implied by others, but for the last half decade maybe even full decade, the story for Linux gaming and daily use has been superior.
