@26:07 he says as a business he’s considering Linux on his computers because of Windows privacy violations. It’s great to hear someone with such a wide audience talking about using Linux.

    Not just gaming companies, but pretty much all companies. Fuck all works on Linux, unless you’re into dev/IT.

        I’m not talking about simple stuff. That’s the problem with Linux - it’s only usable for simple stuff.

      Huh? How am I able to daily drive it on multiple machines for audio production, gaming, and workstation use.

      I must have accidentally installed Windows…

      99% of things people do on a computer just require a web browser, and those definitely work on Linux.

        People who only do these things do them on their phones. When you actually need a PC to do shit, you either have to use Windows or MacOS.

      Lol, sheeeh, the ratio!! I’m a (sadly) Windows-focused sysadmin in higher education and I agree with this, Linux is amazing for servers but normal business users can’t do shit with it : (
