Or Windows just works on so much different hardware. You can build a PC with the weirdest mix and match of hardware, and Windows will just… work. Also I bought a Microsoft sidewinder wheel from 1998 from a thrift store for $8, plugged it into my Windows 10 PC, and it just worked. Nothing special was needed. 1998 hardware literally plug and play on Windows 10 (and I’ve tested it on 11, and it works the same).

You can install MacOS on non-Apple hardware, but you need to buy very specific hardware, and download very specific hacks, to make it work.

Even Linux only works on specific hardware. This entire thread has people talking about how broken Linux is on their setups. The suggestions are to buy specific hardware and run very specific versions of Linux.

Can’t wait for Linux to be mainstream in 2085!

Going to be honest, I don’t really care that I got rid of my VHS tapes and 480p DVDs.

How am I a troll? I literally provided you with software I require that Linux can’t run 💀

I think that’s the worst part. It just looks like an untrustworthy clone that is trying to steal your info.

Seems weird not to build your own identity, especially when torrents aren’t always safe.

Do you call everyone a troll that isn’t a Linux fanboy like you?

… I genuinely don’t understand how you jumped to those conclusions. You’re a troll.

Or… Linux can’t run the software and hardware I require for my job? I literally said in the original comment.

I also have my own business. I don’t have a boss.

I don’t? Are you assuming because I clicked a random post I saw on the active tab that I run pirated Windows?

How do you know if someone runs Linux? Don’t worry, they’ll tell you.

Ya! And then just quit my job, since none of it runs on Linux.

Just checked. All of the “cheap” ones require you to order 2+, and then have insane shipping costs. The rest are $100-120 CAD.

I don’t think these things will ever be affordable. People who want one badly, will pay the money, and everyone knows it. No need to sell them at MSRP.

I don’t buy any pis because they are $100+ in Canada.

Remember when it was supposed to be a cheap computer? Ya…

I setup the VPN tunnel. It’s a toggle switch on my phone that allows me to access my network as if I was home. It’s free (using wireguard app), and way more secure, as my phone is the only device allowed to access it.

Downside is that I need to add devices manually if I wanted, but upside is that it’s super secure and not directly open to the web via domain.

Not sure why these assholes here are acting like this is reddit where the sub could be shut down. The dude runs his own instance…

And it’s ignorant, and it makes the dev look shady.

But go ahead. Be shady, I guess.

Just staying with Infinity for Lemmy is ignorant to the original dev.

I don’t care about the open source part. Cool? Not sure why that matters or why you’re focusing on it.

I’m just saying that using Infinity for Lemmy when you’re not the original dev, without making it VERY CLEAR you’re not the original dev, is scummy.

So many people think this is the original dev, and it’s not.

I’m glad it took until other people called him out to talk about it. Should’ve never used it in the first place. Also it shouldn’t take 2+ weeks to change the name. Shady behaviour.

Sync for Reddit and Sync for Lemmy are both by the same developer.

Boost for Reddit and Boost for Lemmy are both by the same developer.

Infinity for Reddit and Infinity for Lemmy are NOT by the same developer.

See the problem?
