most linux distros from android to alpine can be and often are configured to limit the amount of forks a user can spawn

what are you even yapping

Problem is, for any somewhat big project (like discord) updating Electron without something breaking is a nightmarishly complex venture as Electron doesn’t seem to care about backwards compatibility.

Oh my god onedrive is actually the stuff of devils

That’s the kernel apis. Those have to be stable. Userland always changes much faster.

I’m by no means a purest but I’ve found WSL… More annoying than using Linux as is. Network oddities, random programs not functioning and just generally subpar as is.

Russia isn’t prohibiting the use of VPNs but it is making it increasingly more headache inducing (protocol based blocking, ip bans of popular vpn providers).

Oh yeah, VR is currently a pain point too. Anti-cheat is an odd position tho, so I’d recommend checking out every so often.

Linux today is plug and play in almost all areas. Off the top of my head the ones that have problems are creativity (no Adobe and also wacky color management, though it’s getting a complete rework with Wayland setting it on par with macOS) and engineering (next to no support from big CADs).

No, not really. Most image formats produce completely unreadable jumbo only meant to be parsed with clever maths.

ironically enough i think microsoft (at least until very recently) has had a very lenient stance on piracy exactly because of this

piracy is the key to the consumer market in developing countries, consumer market is the key to enterprise (where the actual money lies)

flatpak… is unrelated to redhat, at least at the moment

it was initially made as a side project by a person who worked at red hat on containers, nowadays it’s developed by freedesktop.org

It’s a nice way to get around naming collisions.

Snap is just flatpak but worse for most cases (the only exception being cli apps). The fact canonical are pushing it so badly makes Linux more fragmented for no real reason.

everyone tried only the shittiest alt-malks

well i dont have 5 euro to dish out on a carton of altmilk every time i want to make an omelette

yall have an excess of money and it shows

linux is barely better than macos in terms of backwards compatibility, literally the only stable api is the syscall one
