Is this meant to be bait? Only thing worth taking issue with is
>too many distributuons
I don't get why variety is a con

All of the cons except the last one are actually pros.
Carson Carter
What problem?
Joshua Adams
package management, desktop environments, even goddamn file browsers
Caleb Phillips
games in the con section meant a lack of games.

what? RedHat and SUSE provide top-tier support

These aren't problems...there are simply different approaches that suit different people.
Mason Wilson
>solve the same problem
Opinion discarded.
Ryder Powell
With less games you have less distractions. It's a pro for productivity.
Andrew Taylor
based and redpilled

Grasping at straws librefags?

Then templeos have even less opportunity for procrastinating.
Not everyone is a sociopath.

Its a problem when most of then are shit.

So would Windows be if it was not the standard

Will improve with adoption

Yes, there's a lot of OS distributions based on the Linux kernel.
Joshua Hill
when that cons are actually pro's

We know. We don't care. GNU is pure cringe.
Robert Powell

you have to go back
Thomas Mitchell
Linux is only free if you time is worthless
Elijah Evans
Sorry for triggering you, Jow Forums. GNU is still cringe though
Ryder Reed
Only if you want to port it to oobscure platforms.
Robert Evans
bad post
Jack Kelly
Proprietary software are for cucks. It's utterly shocking to know that actual, literal cuckolds are unironically bringing and wanting
these software-as-a-jail on a libre system.
Joseph Wright
I know, truly the OS of patricians
Mason Wright
Waiting for my x220 to arrive
I want to put ubuntu on it , what do you guys think?
I've been a windows user all my life but I want to switch.
James Diaz
Probably not what OP means. Pathetic example: A big-ass X-ray machine at a hospital has a driver for Windows XP. It costs a ton of money to replace that hardware. There is no vendor support for GNU/Linux (or anything else except Windows XP). SUSE and RedHat can't help you with that one, nor can anyone else. So the machine connected to it is bound to Windows XP (not Windows 7, not Windows 10, that machine will run Windows XP forever).
It is true that quite a few hardware manufacturers just say screw Linux.
..as for the rest of the points on that list.. not sure those are actually cons.
Joshua Perry
hospitals are corrupt in the US, they are all about profit at the expense of their patients
they like paying big money for things that will only be used once or that the OEM wont give lifetime support for
