Linux will never be a thing until developers stop thinking users are an optional todo feature

Sadly, while UNIX(likes) may be lacking in users, they are perfect viruses. They are unkillable, unstoppable and will make you sick

what problem? that companies don't make games for it because children are all on windows?

Have a look at "Major Linux Problems
on the Desktop, 2019 edition" which I can't link due to retarded spam filters but you can find it with a 2 second search.
But since I know you won't bother anyways cause it doesn't fit your worldview I will just give you the biggest problems.

this 100%
Stop trying to popularise linux you fucking normies. It's already at the tipping point of becoming normified as fuck and things are only getting worse as time goes on.

why should I care? it has all the software I need and all my hardware is supported. I've been using it for the past 6 years and since then it has become so fucking accessible for normalfags that it's actually scary. I'm sure you can't back up your claim at all

Taking the bait
>X system is fucked beyond repair
and Wayland is in the works (admittedly very early to be used consistently) to mitigate this. But how is X.org broken exactly? Works fine if you have your drivers in check.
>The way sound is implemented is fucked even worse than X is
Pulseaudio and ALSA work ootb, unless you want to use JACK or something its all perfectly adequate.
>A documented history of ....
Yes, but this pertains to SystemD and GNOME in most cases and if you dont substantiate your claims with actual security or privacy concerns that have been set as a wontfix in the kernel I have no reason to believe you.
>Open and closed source video drivers suck ...
Get good at reading? No less than a few seconds of configuration will give you ideal results, but thats too much of your precious time eh?
>Supports CPUs ... struggles to support new hardware or wifi...
Have you considered the core target audience of the kernel? Its not laptop users or people who frequently use webcams, i personally haven't had a single issue with these components aside from my BCM 43142 which has gay network signal across most distros.
>15 years and older actually quite important bugs still not fixed
Post them?

>Linux will never be a thing
Linux is a thing. Linux on the desktop won't be a thing until developers start caring about user experience.

this and also unironically

This is a Linux thread not 'gnoo'. Stop posting that filthy fat pedo kike here.

It is literally the most used kernel in the world, you retarded dogfag.

I'm bouta break this shit down. Normal fags never understand the mechanism of opensource improvement: devs extending shit to fit their own needs. Luck + careful maintainers MAY result in something that is sane enough to continue developing. Trying to compromise and design things for normalfags literally always results in the mechanics being irreparable for further development.

>spending time reading rants
>not spending any time actually trying it yourself to see it wasn't true
You sound like an intellectual, wanna join my pyramid scheme? I promise it will make tons of money, you don't need to see any proof.

I, too, prefer products that I not cost money, but the creators think of the users as cattle to be milked.
