Time to make a really long comment: I couldn't agree more with everything said in this video! Linux truly stands out as the best operating system for those who value customization and control. Its open-source nature means that you can tweak and optimize your system however you like, making it an incredibly flexible and powerful tool. Unlike Windows and macOS, where you're stuck with whatever features they give you, Linux lets you take charge of your system and tailor it exactly to your needs. One of the points that really resonated with me was how lightweight Linux is compared to other operating systems. It’s incredible how smoothly Linux runs, even on older or less powerful hardware. I’ve personally experienced this when reviving older laptops with Linux, and the difference in performance is night and day compared to running Windows or macOS. It’s no wonder so many people turn to Linux for performance and efficiency. Security is another area where Linux absolutely shines. The way Linux handles user permissions and system access makes it far more secure than Windows or macOS. I love knowing that my system is protected without needing to constantly worry about viruses or malware. The open-source community works so quickly to address any vulnerabilities, and that kind of rapid response is hard to beat. I also completely agree with the point about the diversity of Linux distributions. Whether you’re new to Linux or a seasoned user, there’s a distro that fits your exact needs. I’ve experimented with several over the years, and it’s amazing how each one is tailored to different use cases, all while maintaining the core advantages of Linux. This level of choice is something you simply don't get with Windows or macOS. All in all, Linux truly is the superior operating system for anyone who wants performance, security, and freedom. It’s easy to see why so many people, myself included, believe Linux is simply better than Windows or Mac. This was written by AI, but in all seriousness, great video

I mean, it's not like everything is supported on Linux (I have a Gigabyte laptop, I know the pain), but I don't think it's the case with Logitech?

[@Smathles]

Piper is great for MOST logitech devices out of the box, but rip, there's still some (like the newest vertical mouse for logitech) that just aren't recognized yet. Genuinely don't think it's hard to patch in, but it's just that no-one's done it yet :/ Typical linux, if it's not supported, patching it yourself is neither convenient nor easy for most computer users if you want the $100 mouse you bought to "just work".

[@mletormd5231]

@@Smathles therein lies the problem sadly. Relying on heavy intervention by users who find free time to code on behalf of large companies. It's a sad realization that until we see widespread adoption of Linux packages by these developers, then this issue will always exist.

Well, other than the bit about TempleOS, which isn't a Linux, I can't entirely fault what you're saying. However, as someone who is more knowledgeable about how computers work, I haven't had nearly any of those problems with using Linux. Also, I've had my parents testing out Mint for the past 6 months, and they haven't complained once and I've had no calls for "tech support". Granted, they don't play games or do anything more complex than other old people, but still, if it works it works.

[@florinadrian5174]

Linux is safer not only because it's less attractive for hackers (cause that's not even true, since it's dominating the servers market and a server is much juicier a target than some PC) but because it is properly designed from the very start. Also, there is a huge difference between the old legendary Linux that you are describing and today's beast: the scary terminal is not really needed, not more than having to edit the registry in Windows and the "compatibility of parts" with Linux is a thing of ancient past. Linux is like tap water: cheap, abundant, safe and fit to purpose in 99.99% of the cases (more than Windows) but corporations spend billions in marketing to persuade gullible people to buy bottled water. Contrast that with the cost, security and privacy risks (or rather certainties) of its competitors...

If you think linux cannot be hacked, I have a bridge I want to sell you, linux desktop is still a dumpster fire, and yes you have to go to the terminal.

[@florinadrian5174]

@@deckard5pegasus673 Everything is hackable and exploits plague everything. But it's all relative: is Linux better built and tested than Windows? Of course. As a normal, non-IT user, do you have to go to the terminal as often as you have to dig into Windows innards? I'd say no. And when you say "linux desktop is a dumpster fire", could you specify which one? Cause it's not Windows, you have options.

I never had any problem with hardware on Linux. Everything just works. Except Nvidia. That is a little more of a pain. I heard pop OS does Nvidia well, and Nvidia is being more Linux friendly lately, so it will probably stop being a wall

[@MrEnyecz]

I think their open driver is the default by now, or will be very soon. There was some minor pain with it previously, but to me it works quite well at least with Ubuntu. Just don't forget to install the Linux header source! :)

Why does on any topic something always has to be better 😀I'm a Linux Guy since the 90s, use an iPhone for the Family, Android for work, Windows is used for gaming. It doesn't simply not matter. Use what makes you happy, don't hype anything, don't think you're a part of something, just because you use or own it. Makes life so much easier 🙂 AI and Linux: guess on what die whole AI crap is running 🙂? Linux, right. The rest just uses API calls to Linux cloud computers. And TempleOS is not a Linux 🙂.
