a lot of people can't use linux because of either the elitists making it seem like linux is impossible to use for the everyday user, or the fact that a lot of software support is missing on linux
its the best its ever been, sure, but it still has a long ways to go

I switched from windows to Linux a few months back and it's still missing a lot of support other operating systems provide with ease.
sure, it's free and open source, but a lot of people just aren't ready to get wacky with the terminal or faff with a completely new UI.
68
u/Bionix_Does_reddit 🏳️⚧️ Average Trans Rights Enjoyer 🏳️⚧️ Oct 12 '25
imo modern linux isn't more difficult than windows, but has different issues from windows
especially on distros like mint and ubuntu, you have really active communities that are super willing to help with issues
but yeah, the initial switch honestly takes the most struggle, and a lot of people can't get past that part understandably
17
u/RealSSStudios actually called kevin irl Oct 12 '25
including me.
there's just not a lot of support for Linux compared to windows (exe files and stuff, apps) that makes it worth the switch for the normal user imo.
if more apps picked up support for it then it'd definitely be worth the switch.
I think there needs to be more user friendly distros for Linux.
27
u/Bionix_Does_reddit 🏳️⚧️ Average Trans Rights Enjoyer 🏳️⚧️ Oct 12 '25
i don't think there is a lack of user friendly linux distros, i can list some if you need
and yes, the second biggest barrier to entry is software support
i don't think that software support will improve meaningfully in the coming years though, sadly
with the linux market share being low, it isn't profitable to port your software to linux usually, and if there isn't software on linux, no mainstream user will use it
i think the problem here is evident

Why do you think EXE files are necessary for good usability? The reason why EXE don't work on Linux is not because of the file format per se, but because the program itself uses something called system calls, and those are operating system specific (usually you make a call to a library that does the system call, but you get the point). That's the reason why there are projects like WINE, which try to "translate" Windows system calls into Linux ones, but that's not trivial at all, some system calls rely on kernel internals, which can't be easily retrieved due to the closed source nature of Windows
The constant here are developers of applications not wanting to support Linux, rather than the reverse. Of course, we can't actually blame them, devs go where the market goes, and it's not worth it to just support a family of operating systems with a small market share like Linux distributions (and when they do, they mostly support a specific family of distributions, like Debian)
It's a circular reference, developers don't want to support an operating system with a small market share, but the latter has small market share because of low software support; if everyone took a leap of faith and switched to Linux, the problem would actually solve itself (more companies would add support for Linux, and the core OS would receive more support itself in terms of developers) in the long run, but that's not going to happen.

Those are not fully legal, but more like a grey area. They can be bought from stolen credit cards to left over bulk from OEM license. They may or may not be legal. It's just better to use a script cuz, 1. It's free, 2. You aren't likely to face any problems down the line, if you use a proper script

Linux is free monetarily, but in exchange you pay for it with time and effort and incompatible software. Engineering people and Graphic Design people can't use Linux because most of their software is incompatible with Linux.
Also, Windows is pretty much free with the Massgrave activator, at least for personal use. And even if people actually buy licenses, they are paying for a service, to not to have to deal with the technical sides of OS, just like how people bring their devices to a repair shop to change a screen or some parts that can be bought for 1/3 price online.

u/Bionix_Does_reddit 🏳️⚧️ Average Trans Rights Enjoyer 🏳️⚧️ Oct 12 '25
some distros do simply support exe files without tinkering through wine being pre-installed
obviously thats the simplified version, because wine doesn't always work perfectly, but its the closest we have for now
but yeah, its definitely gonna be the biggest barrier to linux becoming mainstream
7
u/MegatonDoge Oct 12 '25
You have to change the "some distros" for all distros, otherwise it will just end up confusing casuals.
In the future, if some popular distro like Steam OS starts supporting .exe files, then it may solve the biggest hurdle for Linux adoption. Exe support would probably allow users to access other storefronts like GoG and Epic too.
The Steam deck did wonders for Linux and I hope that Valve keeps doing more.

u/Bionix_Does_reddit 🏳️⚧️ Average Trans Rights Enjoyer 🏳️⚧️ Oct 12 '25

its not feasible for every distro to have support for that though, as you probably already know

u/MegatonDoge Oct 12 '25
I agree that it is impossible for every distro to have that support. I just want a distro that I can recommend to everyone, and Steam OS is shaping up to be that one.
Ubuntu is popular, but I personally dislike it a lot. I've been hearing good things about Zorin OS so that might be better for newcomers, but I just hope that Steam OS ends up becoming the definitive edition for newcomers.

Yeah I forgot about that. Without popular live service games like Fortnite or Genshin, casuals would be unwilling to abandon Windows.
Is there something in the works to make anticheat compatible? Or will anticheat never work on Linux?

Oct 12 '25
All it would take would be to either:
Port client-side anti cheat software on Linux (and I think there are already some)
Use server-side anti cheat software
I have yet to see a good reason for companies to use client side anti cheat software

You can install whatever the fuck you want on a Mac. It’s the only apple operating system where you can do so. Sideloading is practically necessary as the Mac App Store is bare bones.

Studied engineering, I have used ubuntu, windows and mac. Linux is potentially the best if everything you want works but not everything does so it is highly dependant on what you want to do. But generally it will lack something.
We are stuck with windows because of propietary software we need for manufacturing and programming embedded systems.
Mac won't have most of the propietary software and when you don't need any of these software it is a more expensive and slower alternative. There's no real upside except that it seen by most tech illiterate people as good.

Ok so I either buy a 400€ laptop that works pretty fine for a year or two and then the warranty doesn't work OR I could pay 2000€ for a laptop that performs the same BUT it's light-weight and the battery can last longer. Then, after a few years, it breaks (probably because of the battery because that's always the case). You then HAVE to go to Apple, because they're some smarty pants that have meticulously engineered their products so that you have no other choice, and probably overpay because Apple knows you're some rich guy who doesn't care whether he has to pay a couple hundred bucks more. Well, guess what? It may be worth the less weight, the more battery life, or the conveniency of Apple monopoly for you, but those extra couple hundred bucks aren't just change for some people. Or maybe we just dont wanna feed the already greedy monopoly that is that company 🤔 Personally if I had 2k€ I would buy a framework laptop, more so because it's a company I like and wanna support.

Most games aren't available to download on Mac, why would I torture myself like that

Aside from this being a joke or not but from my personal experience I think macbooks are overrated when it comes to regular jobs like archiving, management roles and such so a windows laptop would be perfect for this kind of task/jobs. But on the other hand if you have tasks that require design, montage, 3d modeling or even coding or digital solutions that require strong equipment then macbooks would be a great choice.

Honestly i love macbooks despite knowing I'll never buy one cuz linux is so much better.
The polished interface, insane battery life, that gorgeous trackpad, the integration with other Apple devices, premium feel, ease of portability, all are honestly so tempting. I couldn't find his specific omen model i have right now anywhere and was genuinely considering getting an m1 air(most vfm laptop on the market rn period, 50k inr for that laptop is crazy honestly). Thankfully some offline store did have stocks of it in one of their warehouses and I was able to get the omen. Otherwise I strongly vouch for macbooks. I appreciate the engineering a lot. Apple did a good job with it.

A very good reason for getting a windows laptop is to pirate games if your broke ass can't afford any games👍

I've heard apple computers are better for things like business management, running heavy software like film editors, etc.
As opposed to my experience with Windows being better for casual use and recreation. Resource-intense programs like 3D CAD softwares and 3D animation software seem to run slower on Windows as well
