Microsoft released the Windows 11 autumn update at the beginning of October. However, a bug has crept in. The installation creates an almost nine gigabyte cache file that cannot be deleted.
Nah, this is just what it’s been like from the moment Lemmy got momentum. The fediverse is pretty fundamentally aligned with the goals and interests of the same people who are part of the FOSS and Linux philosophy. From where I joined more than a year ago, it’s been more or less the same.
If that’s the case and I’ve somehow managed to just never see any of those threads until recently…
They might want to know that constantly saying “Windows bad, Linux good” in every thread doesn’t convert people, it just gets annoying. That in turn makes people dislike the group and dismiss what they say without a second thought, even if they’re right.
Actually, I saw enough comments about people switching to Linux that I finally said “what the hell” and took the plunge! Very glad I did, as I read more and more crap Microsoft is doing.
And if you don’t like comments that won’t change anything and just annoy people…maybe you should reevaluate your bellyaching 😄
You seem to misunderstand. Here on the Fediverse, Linux users are NOT such a minority as on the rest of the Internet. Most people here do not need “converting”. They already have. Again, you’re not on Reddit or Twitter. You are literally surrounded by open source enthusiasts. What you are seeing is just a bit of a standard circle jerk when large amounts of people in a forum agree on something.

Using Windows on purpose because of a couple annoying nerds is quite the self-own
Posting as if your choice of OS is inherently superior to other choices is just pathetic.

Oh I don’t misunderstand at all. They’re preaching to the choir and thinking they’re doing something. Like idiots.
Yes, it’s called a circlejerk. Happens on many forums where people agree on something. It’s not that serious.
…and as Internet has turned in to a myriad of echo chambers, circlejerking and trolling is all there is anymore.
