Help bros I nee to convince my family to turn to Linux. I already have the operating systems in mind (zorin, elementary and deepin)
zorin is based on ubuntu, ubuntu is based of debian, debian is based of the linux kernal and gnu tools
John Roberts
That's literally what I just said
Samuel Smith
no it's fucking not, if you have a problem with anonymous tips sent to cnzz about your screen size to help user eexperience on essentily a web app, thten fucking go rouge and kill yourself
Angel King
nigga wat
Oliver Garcia
Nicely googled their dumb ass excuse. You're better off using Windows or OSX you scrub
Luke Lewis
? would you mind explaining HOW it is spyware? It's open source, and it's not the os itself that has the so caled "spyware", it's the deepin store, and most people use the terminal to get aplications. Also if you think it being chinese has anything to do with it being "spyware", that's a form of racism
that type of racism of not trusting chinese and russian products for being chinese and rusian products is the most fucking boneleeess excuse, i do admit to being a racist homophibic bigot, but at least my reasoning is not fucking boneless
David Wilson
the shiny deepin or elementary app stores won't be enough anyway. as far as looks go, you can make any DE look like windows or osx. so why even bother with an additional layer of fucky fucky? use plain ubuntu
Asher Cox
>wtf is a zooalot bitch, you have a powerful network-connected computer at your fingertips. go to dictionary dot com and enter the word and read the definition. fuck, you're this retarded and you want your family to follow your lead???
John Sanders
dde is powerfull enough to replicate both windows and mac os ui
Ayden Brooks
It doesn't track you and it's not in the distro. It's a WEBSITE TRACKER. Whenever you visit ANY website it anonymously logs that someone visited that website. That's how website traffic is tracked. So if you visit the Deepin Store, which is actually a webpage, then it anonymously records that there was a visit. It records no identifying information whatsoever, just like all other websites. YouTube does that and you're on YouTube right now. Please educate yourself. The "App Store" is just a front for a webpage. It records a page hit when you open it and if you watch this dude's follow up video he admits he was wrong and it's a website tracker (like I said, this guy seems clueless.) I don't know what "it's from an analytics company" means. Duh? Who does their own website analytics? I don't know where you're from, but most people in the States use Google Analytics and this company provides similar services.
Anthony Howard
Just leave them alone. Windows and macshit work for them so why should they change
James Morris
deepin is debian unstable based
Anthony Russell
stop
Luis Taylor
is that bad? debian based is unstable, is deepin? what if it's not? i use deepin on my laptop i dont want any problems
Hunter Wilson
This cannot be true story. but if it is perhaps do work that benefits your family rather than fighting against them.
If your parents take care of their own computers be grateful for this. I gave my mom a laptop to do gmail and facebook on because she is old and it just works. If your parent take care of their own computer leave them alone
OSX is objectively better for tech-illiterate people

Why would annyone want to use anything by apple after Jobs died? I know he wasn't a programmer, just a marketer, but fore some reason apple has gone to shit after that

>virus, virus, virus, virus Source, source, source, source? I'm sure you have it.
Luke Diaz
matte, everyone that runs android has a virus, it's called P3T1T4
Caleb Kelly
>Help bros Sure, just settle down and don't convince your family to change. People of age prefer familiarity over function and in this case, windows 10 and os x fit their needs perfectly. There's zero reason to switch to linux. If you're so good with computers, install a pihole in the main internet acces and that's it.
Kevin Mitchell
> (OP) there both a waste of money when you can get linux for free
Daniel Gomez
It's not about money, retard. They have money, they don't have time. Time to deal with needless change and adapt.
Luke Cook
>father uses windows for gaming hey can i play cs with your dad? im LEM
Charles Gonzalez
he think he just plays normie shit games like 76 and wartune and other POS. dont think he'd play something like that
>always lecture her on why they are a waste of money and why Linux/windows is a better alternative This is why no one likes freetards. This is the reason
Angel Evans
>debian is based of the linux kernal and gnu tools
I've never read anything this messed up both grammatically and conceptually. Do you even manage to boot a PC on your own?
Caleb Reyes
the best way to do it is: >user my email isn't working i don't use mac, fix it yourself >user my game crashes i don't use windows, fix it yourself after a few months of it they'll either disown you or switch to linux, either way you win!
Julian Gutierrez
yeah it as on uefi boot but wen i instal linux on laptop u nade it legacy drum kit wa whaatt soulja boy used ti make crank that in fl studio 9 demo btw gramer us nit equil ro spelling
Cooper Brooks
You know I used all os on my Mac. The reason why people don't like Linux 9/10 is because of the pretentiousness of it's users. BUT ITS FREE YOU'RE A SHEEP IF YOU USE ANYTHING ELSE
Hunter Jenkins

Your mom is basically using an overpriced Unix. Your dad is a gaymer and you're the autistic son.
