Everything works.

I've never had a problem with Windows that I couldn't fix by a restart.

Windows is still the most used operating system because it just [works].

not everyone using the operating system wants to do the inane bullshit that Linux users do and some of us want to just have it do the bare minimum.


I have literally never encountered a Windows Bro who says how awesome Windows is and how you should totally use it and it's the best option and anything else is trash.

Have you never met them because... it's you? Have I solved the trick question? :-)

Nah. Because I'm not saying how awesome it is. I'm not saying that windows is amazing and how everyone should switch. I'm not suggesting that windows or Microsoft is better. I don't idolize gates like y'all do Torvalds.

No trick question here. They literally don't exist. If windows actually stopped working for me then I'd switch but it doesn't for the vast majority of people.

Y'all just gotta lie and invent problems to justify your desperate notion that this year will be the year of Linux when no one wants to be around you.

Excuse me, If these Linux users weren't so autistic they'd be very upset.
