    I have drawn myself as a chad and you as an ugly wojack so my position is clearly the correct one.

    Windows users hate this one neat trick.

        Fully agree. Windows is trash spyware now that doesn’t respect user choice.

        I was really commenting more on the meme itself.

        I’m literally going to use windows 10 until it completely stops getting updated, by that point hopefully someone will invent a Linux distro that doesn’t irritate me

            I have tried mint, I mostly did like it, but there were just some small things that really got on my nerves. The fact that middle clicking a webpage did nothing was unbearable, that’s how I scroll all the time

              It does do something though, it paste directly from the latest info from the clipboard XD. So, if you highlight something, then middle click somewhere else(not just a browser, basically system wide) it will paste what ya highlighted.

                default settings, everything on GNU/Linux can be customized. Getting done to change the default is always a struggle. For example it’s been decades that in GNUDE the middle button click has been paste, so while it may seem dumb to you that it does that, it’s user base expects that to be the default.

                But as you’ve already found in this thread in a meme community, one of the best ways to learn how to customize your system the way you want is to claim in a Linux forum that Linux can’t do such and such.

        Yeah, it’s cyclical. They’re re-entering their shithead phase.

        Embrace. Extend. Extinguish. The got smacked with those EU antitrust lawsuits and they reset back to Embrace, and started participating in open-source again. Then they started extending by doing shit like buying GitHub and adding even more cool shit to it. Now they’re entering in extinguish phase where they’re doing shit like making it difficult to change default browser, and integrating all their services together without the ability to integrate 3rd parties.

        They’ll (hopefully) get smacked with another EU antitrust lawsuit and reset soon.

          Yeah, I really would like them to go back to being the cool weird uncle, not the cousin everyone is forced to play with at family gatherings.
