I didn’t say it was complicated, I said it was fractured and incomplete and terrible for desktops, but I can see where your mind is going just by that statement
Fucking linux elitism rearing its ugly head.
Oh I’m so sorry that my pet OS is too tough for your poor mind to comprehend, maybe go read twenty or so manuals to get up to speed?
When was the last time you tried Linux?
2015 I tried Mint again and Manjaro because some users claimed it had great hardware detection and that’s been one of my biggest problems my entire time, and guess what? It didn’t work! Nothing I could do would get even OpenGL and linux native 3d games to run
I’m not a technical person by the way; just a normal dude who uses Linux now.
And now I know you’re a liar too. It’s really sad how quickly lemmy fell as compared to reddit. At least on reddit I got a few years before the forum sliders showed up
2015… I was there back then, and let me tell you, the distribution landscape is very different. You don’t have to rely on package managers to get your apps anymore because flatpaks and appimages are ubiquitous. Games went from having maybe a 50% chance to run with opengl to 98% running with vulkan ootb. Desktop environments have improved across the board with stuff like wayland and plenty of other good shit. And finally, linux itself has gotten much better hardware support. Seriously, you’re doing yourself and everyone else a disservice by using 2015 as a comparison point.
A decade ago you tried Linux and it was hard, try again or butt out. Windows has become even more of a privacy violating, data snorting, market manipulating whore in that time and it will not stop.
I’ll bet they roll out subscription based drivers before you make a legitimate atempt.

Dude, you need to chill. Why not take a break and unclench you jaw and fists for a while?
This conversation doesn’t deserve this level of blood pressure.
