But i appreciate the downvotes for trying to swith but not being able to. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] Crozekiel@lemmy.zip 1 point 1 year ago (1 child) I didn't downvote you originally, despite this obvious lie at the end "you hit a button and itβs installed." - just pointing out that you are exactly who the meme is about, lol. Vague complaints about compatibility issues that don't hold much water (and unable or unwilling to share any details); vaguely complicated solutions, presented as if they are dangerous, from "untrustworthy" sources; and finally claiming windows doesn't have any of that (bet you have no similar concerns about using regedit... and you only follow the advice of official Microsoft Tech Support, right?). permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] slaneesh_is_right@lemmy.org 1 point 1 year ago I had no time to even turn on the computer since the post. I assumed i still had the youtube videos saved that were the "fix" to my problem. I really want nothing more to get away from windows. When i tried to swith the first time, i literally had to plug in a usb stick and i was running linux. But that was 4 computers ago. It's not that the sources might be dangerous. Usually when i have computer problems i use youtube, because i can see it, hear it, and replicate it. Usually 2000 videos show up and they all explain the same thing. In this case i found like 4 videos and most of them were pretty old or in 480p or filmed with a mobile phone. Computers are just a hobby to me, all i know about computers, figured out myself. And i don't really understand what the lie is with the windows installer. I used every windows simce 3.1 and i always hated the install process because it's "scary". But the last few times i put in a usb stick and waited and it was done. permalink fedilink source parent
