not to be rude but thats just hp making software. HPLIP is literally godtier compared to piece of shit windows drivers they roll out.

But yeah since Linux is shit because it has "no software" (which is produced and maintained by third parties), then yes , windows sucks because half of the software for it is malware ridden or insanely shitty in overall, in addition to not being niche programs or adware or spyware.

No. You've clearly already made up your mind on a completely subjective topic that you can research yourself. Fuck off and stop filling the catalog with this shit

you think this is funny, compare installing warcraft 3 from official downloadable installer in windows and in wine.

Fucking everything runs on Windows. Have fun playing whatever clone of Minesweeper Microsoft didn't copyright. The reason that plenty of ad/virus-ridden software exists for windows is because of just how fucking easy software is to make for windows. Have fun playing whatever clone of Minesweeper Microsoft didn't copyright.

You know, clicking it more than once usually does more harm than good. You should try doing something else to fix it.

For games. If it were not for games, there would be no windows on my computer.

You shouldn't. Honestly, if you can work with GNU/Linux you should just use that. Otherwise, get a cheap Mac (or a expensive one - that depends on your needs and budget).

Windows is beyond saving now.

>software is written for windows
>therefore windows is better
ignore the fact that windows is preinstalled on ~90% of laptops and prebuilds because "muh monopoly"

you see everything runs on windows because its written for windows. its not that windows runs everything, having additional software from 3rd parties is not making a system better ,it just says that a system is popular. It still can be (and is) totally shitty, as well as a massive part of software available for it.
Example: its super easy to make software for android and its literally everywhere including poor people who cant afford to put children through proper basic education but can afford fucking tablets and phones for them, and literally 95% of software for it utter crap.

My point here is, windows without any 3rd party software is really shitty compared to linux, and it's mainly used because it's pushed really hard up peoples asses by serious money, and having pushed user base creates market share required for creating software to be profitable for the producer.

tl;dr; windows is a shitty as fuck system with a some good/professional programs available from 3rd parties.

Because there isn't anything better.

If you think that's bad, just wait for the hell that awaits you with Linux.
>>
>>55620092
I agree with this. IMHO the GNU software is largely holding linux back, though it's almost as good as Mac/Win software.

Linux itself is much better than windows. I actually like a lot of the software better than the winblows alternative. It just needs a killer app -- like an office suite that leaves MS Office in the dust, rather than trying to emulate it.

Same here. I'll be happy when/if gaming on linux actually becomes a thing. I know steam has X amount of linux games, but linux is still waaay behind windows and even osx in terms of gaming.
