      Windows users? I mean the reason why Linux users proclaim the superiority of Linux is because Windows users always say that they want to leave Windows but XYZ doesn’t work or Linux, making Linux look like it’s feature poor which isn’t the case.

        They aren’t saying that Linux is feature poor. They’re just saying that Linux doesn’t fit their use case.

        Big difference.

          But they continue to complain instead of learn to adapt. I have a friend who needs help every week and I told him I am charging for windows help from here on because this is stupid.

            I’ve heard more Linux users complain about Windows than Windows users, and there are plenty more of em.

            Usually also using arguments that have either aren’t relevant anymore, or are just plainly false like the one in the post.

        Linux, as an OS, is much more feature rich. What it lacks is applications. There are many applications out there that are only available for Windows or OSX and there is no Linux app to do the same thing (or the Linux app is very far behind in quality). The inverse (a Linux only app) is rarely true, except for applications that are niche or heavily rely on an OS feature that does not have a close equivalent on Windows.

        Plus, just about every piece of (consumer) hardware that can be connected to a computer has a Windows driver.
