Follow-up video to https://lemmy.world/post/32690521


Spoiler alert: the main reason he says the experience “hasn’t been great” is because shortly before posting the video his Linux install mysteriously broke and he had no idea why. Therefore, he recommended dual-booting Windows just in case.

Cue sea of comments explaining that the reason for the error he was getting was that Windows screwed up his bootloader (i.e. the problem was caused by dual-booting to begin with, LOL).

    I mean… sure, but by that point he has recommended dual booting multiple times already. Using Windows as a recovery system is just the last reason he gives. By that point he has already suggested that people main Linux and keep a cracked/not activated version of Windows in the back for other reasons.

    The OP gives the sense that it’s purely circular logic: he is only recommending dual booting because his dual boot setup corrupted his bootloader. That’s not what the video is saying.
