Bro every point you make is the same the other way around.
there’s is apps to remove telemetry, is a pain to do it at updates, but is not as painful as having to use a terminal to fix every fucking issue. A cheap pirateable solution.
in Linux you have to do shenanigans to install Nvidia drivers, if they work. And with amd, a few years ago I had a lot of trouble trying running a 6700xt with Linux. Linux had never worked for my games right of the bat. I always had to deal with some bullshit config beforehand.
my jbl headset didn’t work until I installed weird weird drivers for my device. Same bullshit as windows/linux 10 years ago.
Bro really? Most apps. Either update when you open or close them. How crippling /s
installing dependencies lol. Executing those auto installing redists ONCE must be hard for a Linux user. I’m sure Linux never had a asked you to install a chillion dependencies just to run one app. Or uninstalled something you need, totally ignored considering you just see a list of dependencies and that it. Hell would I know what I really need. For windows, finding software is fucking easy. Just get the thing you want, run the exe, next next next and you’re done. Besides, don’t you use flatpack now?
your last point is just bullshit. If you want to customize, powerusers always have options. Linux and Windows has their own specific apps that works for them. When I wanted a simple overlay app for a game on Linux, I had to compile a lot of bullshit and nearly took a week to make it work. Windows gave me no issues. The app existed and I didn’t need to check if I had xorg or Wayland running (the latter being trash for the games I play, artifacts everywhere) or some other bullshit. Run the exe, next next next, done.
