  • You couldn’t even comprehend that I wasn’t criticising a person (consider this as criticism).

    I evidently am able to comprehend it. If I were as incapable as you purport, you informing me would be worthless. You doing so, with this response, demonstrate consequently that your assumption is incorrect. It’s a strange one to make.

    It really isn’t that great that instead of active discussion you stumble upon months-old threads.

    You responding renders it active. Any alternative designation is fundamentally nonsensical.


    If you’re to discuss semantics, be more pedantic, else this conversation is uninformative for us.


    I made a point illustrating that switching off from reddit didn’t do any good for the community.

    I’m aware. It’s quite easily comprehensible. However, it’s unsubstantiated, hence the downvotes.



















  • I agree with the first sentence, but the second is wrong due to Proton, and the third is demonstrably wrong if you take a look at their GitHub. Windows Caldulator is better than anything Linux has, and WinGet is a decent attempt at making Windows finally have a native package manager.

    WinGet even does manage packages like you’d expect when installing and uninstalling MSIX packages, and the ease of merely requesting manifests even beats the OBS.

    Of course they’re making good software. Why wouldn’t they be? They’re a competent software development company that much of the world chooses to rely upon. There’s gonna be a reason for it. System admins on a whole generally aren’t totally stupid.

    Even whilst Balmer was CEO, some under-the-hood Windows and Azure changes were quite impressive. He merely screwed up everything he was able to touch, which admittedly was an absolute tonne.
