Wow it’s almost as if when there’s a term that actually covers multiple different operating systems, there’s going to be variations in quality between them! Imagine that!
doesnt make it any better, i would know, I’m a linux user.
If you don’t like debian, great, don’t use it, install something else? Don’t like arch? Great install something else. Dont like arch or debian? There are still more options.
Dont like KDE? Thats fine, theres, mate, cinnamon, LXDE, LXQT, XFCE, etc…
Dont like DEs? Great, there are WM’s, i3, sway, awesome, bspwm, dwm, etc…
ALL of those are free. All of them are interchangeable, there is no right or wrong way to use linux.
yet if i buy an android phone from one of the most prominent android phone manufacturers NONE of that applies. And actually i’ve just wasted all my money, and actually i simply shouldn’t have been an “idiot” and bought something that was actually good, like any number of other admittedly bad phone brands.
Android itself allowing forks for manufacturers was a complete mistake, and never should’ve happened. My complaint here is that we should be doing better. Being told to simply “buy another phone” is a non solution, and makes you look entitled and pretentious.
I was told by nobody that linux is great, and that i should switch to it, and i switched to it and it was great. I was told by practically every android user ever since the invention of android that its better than IOS and that i should switch to it. And yet it’s somehow worse than linux. I would genuinely rather use linux on my phone.
