Driver issues usually only happen if the manufacturer doesn’t provide a Linux driver. Usually it is best to do some research to ensure the hardware will work before purchasing. Otherwise, the driver usually is included with the kernel so it is plug and play even for things that require manually downloading and installing on the Windows side.
Also, I’m not trying to get on any high horse. I personally think Linux is a great alternative to Windows and would love for everyone to at least try it out and see if it is right for them. It could save them tons of headaches and open the door to a new skill set, or just to breathe new life into that old laptop in your closet gathering dust. Linux has a lot of great uses that aren’t possible with Windows. Give peas a chance.
It’s a boil the frog scenario. Windows users will always cope with more and more shit thrown at them.
For your line of work, maybe not. But who cares? They can hire more employees or pay them overtime.
We aren’t machines. What’s the point of life if all we ever do is work? Are we working to live, or living to work? A 32 hour work week makes it a 4/3 day split instead of a 5/2 day split. Seems a lot more balanced if you ask me.
I often dream of that alternative universe where Bernie became president instead of Biden…
Sunk cost fallacy and tribalism.

Or we can just enjoy mastodon and Lemmy for what it is worth. You don’t want it to become mainstream, you just want things to be more federated in general.
How did email and RSS (podcasts) become so derederated but nothing else?
Can Trump just die already?
The tree one… Hands down
But then how will we enjoy having debates if we all shut up and actually solve problems?
Am I the only one who first thought that the dog in the picture was wearing shoes?
Actually nevermind you’re right. Dumb people never had an ad blocker on in the first place :D
Youre giving them too much credit. Most will just accept fate and deal with the ads.
Nah, most people are dumb, they will just continue to complain and assume there is nothing they can do.
That shouldn’t be a gripe on Linux, it should be a gripe on game developers not supporting Linux. This is like blaming Nintendo when your Switch emulator on the PC isn’t working right.
I will never understand how some people have no morals and will purposely enact laws to make people’s lives worse.
