A big hurdle in any technological change is the “power users”. People that have learned a lot about the old tech and have to face that knowledge becoming obsolete. And then having to learn a bunch of new things.
The same goes for Windows power users as people who know a lot about fossil fuel powered cars.
I was a Windows power user, but in Windows 10 I can’t do anything. People be like “yeah just use group policy…” but I have home edition which worked perfectly in Windows 7/8. I could disable the anti-virus, I could disable the firewall, etc.
Now I borked my Windows 10 because I downloaded some debloat scripts and now it won’t update because update service requires the firewall service which I disabled. Fuck it, not booting into it anymore, Linux 5ever.
I use both linux and windows. I am power user.
Linux cannot do all the things i need it to, neither can windows, but at least we have WSL and VMs.
Try setting up a passthrough GPU just to play a game on linux.
Then try setting up an AI application using docker for windows.
I get it, we all wanna root for the underdog, and linux certainly has it’s place, but i am so done seeing this “windows bad linux good” bs
Setting up a pass through GPU for Linux gaming is obsolete knowledge. Between Proton, Lutris, and Heroic Launcher I can play my entire game library directly in Linux. I haven’t booted Windows in months.

What did you use in place of the built in firewall?
Nothing, because I’m behind a router
It’s still advisable to turn it on… it’s Windows after all… on Linux, yes, I don’t use a firewall as well.
My router has a firewall. There’s no point in double firewalling
There is if one of them doesn’t do the job properly.

Ngl, you’re kind of proving their point.
