      Linux isn’t perfect, but it’s kind of hilarious how much more stable it is than Windows, considering it’s mostly made by volunteers and Windows is made by one of the most highly funded corporations on earth.

        It’s all about the design philosophy. Linux is made by volunteers, but their goal is functionality for the user. Windows has a lot of funding, but their goal is more profits for the shareholders.

      I’m currently dealing with an annoying Linux bug, but it’s specific to one distro and I’m already planning to switch to something more stable.

        Linux certainly has its share of annoyances. But I’d much rather deal with the Linux annoyances than the Windows ones.

          At least when I’m trying to fix something in Linux the OS itself isn’t trying to fight me.
