So how are OS updates handled, they are not written into the main OS?

I come back to lemmy and i read bullshit like this.

This is just a bad windows install. The overlay problem happens if you remove edge/gamebar without preserving webview2. I am curious what system settings do you change in the middle of a game apart from one click shutdown.

I don't need any gaming integration in windows. I turn on my pc, steam opens on startup and i click play. Nothing in windows gets in my way. I don't update my drivers unless i am playing a new game on launch day.

Can't play warzone and siege on linux. Windows gaming just works.

No. I am from asia

I have win11 on my gaming pc and i don't see any ads. Maybe because i use local account.

My jellyfin server is on windows 11. It is stable for now. The day it crashes i will switch to linux.

I am never going to install linux on my gaming pc. It is too much work if you are into multiplayer/live service games. Windows just works if you uninstall all the ms crap.

Os everyone here on graphene OS or other linux privacy phones? Or you guys only draw the line when it comes to desktop OS?

Whats wrong with windows users. Not every hardware software is available/compatible with linux.

Whatever suits your narrative.

Yet we don't see the same growth in steam hardware survey (which is dominated by steamdeck). I wonder why.

I am using statcounter for india numbers not steam. Steam numbers are not overinflated by these office pcs. Also india have 1.5billion people so any gain here have a significant impact on stat counter worldwide numbers.

You are here agreeing with me on why linux is a inferior experience on software and hardware front. You are softening the blow by blaming developers and capitalism. You dont have to ask muta, I work in the govt health sector in india and here every pc runs ubuntu. This is same for other sectors. Everything is done on the browser. Also gaming here is dominated by Mobile so these numbers are surely overinflated.

Anyone building a new pc, is going to use modern hardware not EOL hardware. Yes it is great that linux can revive old laptops making it perfectly capable for browsing and word processing, but for a new gaming pc with modern hardware that i build to play modern games i will choose windows over linux anyday.

Linux going 3 to 4 is because govt office pc. Also why linux have a 25 percent market share in india according to the same stats. Because all these pcs need is a chrome browser and word processing. If you look at recent steam hardware survey linux only have 2 percent market share in which half of them are steam deck users.

Why should i waste time troubleshooting on linux, when windows have 100 percent game compatibility and i don't have to worry about any future games and proton incompatibility. Also popular games like valorant, league, eft, warzone and services like gamepass, netflix 4k doesnt outright work on linux.

You can hate microsoft telemetry and bloatware all you want but Hardware and software compatibility is better on windows. It is a fact.

When people build new gaming pc they still choose to install windows, because everything just works.

Also 45 percent of that 2 is on steam deck.

I think he perfectly described the lemmy linux community. Windows is not that bad like the people here says. It just takes some time after installation to uninstall the ms crap you dont want. Windows have the best compatibility with the software and hardware. It is a fact.
