Microsoft might want to be making Windows 12 a subscription OS, suggests leak - SDF Chatter

now that gaming is getting better on Linux thanks to proton, I am unbothered

First of all they’re going to have to release a distro which actually has, shock horror, proprietary drivers installed on it, because your average user isn’t going to understand how to install them.

I’ve said this a few times but no one wants to hear it, I understand why they can’t have proprietary drivers, but the fact that they don’t have them is a major reason as to why Linux isn’t more mainstream.

Good thing Linux ships with AMD drivers by default, no install necessary. Nvidia will have to get off their asses and make their drives less of a pile of dog shit though.
So some drivers are not installed like I said

Hang on…

Some distros (mint, Ubuntu) prompt the user to install proprietary drivers during the installation process, it’s very easy.

On Windows you have to download the latest drivers from the manufacturers website and install them manually, that’s crazy!

Do you use Windows? That’s not at all what you have to do. Windows Update has been pulling drivers for years now.

The pro Linux, anti windows bullshit on Lemmy is fucking ridiculous

No, you said:

You’re moving the goalposts.
