Speak for yourself. I'd rather pay then suffer through Linux desktop.

    You're the contrarian that likes corporate so much. Didn't think i will see your comment here.

    Edit: It's actually fitting that you would show up here.

    I recognize that fantastic username. Just... avoid the guy.

    I had an unrelated encounter with him/her/they/it/whatever a couple of weeks ago. Troll or not, the guy tends to be a dick about everything.

    I disagree with the user base. I'm a dick. Got it. Can you point out where I have dune anything but express my opinion?

    It seems reductive to go back to Reddit insults. “You have low karma and spend too much time on the platform.” Cmon.

    15 comments a day is nothing, that’s an hour of active engagement, a day.

    I would say I'm just closer to the average user in needs and wants.

    Agreed. You have shown us you are very close to average. Just a tiny bit more intellect and you’ll make it there! God speed, superstar.

    Then why are you in all your arguments I have seen you; defaulting to the position that things you pay for are "always" better than things that are "free"? Many would agree to the position that things we pay for are "usually" better than things that are free.

    It's true that paying gives you better quality.. but NOT ALWAYS.

    Linux Mint would like to have a word with you.

    Extension updates compatibility and stability, video card driver issues, poor inconsistent audio source management tools, general challenges getting 1-1 level of functionality with touch pads and webcams (spending days trying to figure out why xdotool isn't working only to find you now need ydotool for Wayland was fun).
