I’ve enjoyed JetBrains over either so far.

You could look at Bowley. They have a fairly pick resistant/proof lock

I bet! That’s a lot of technical info to sort through, understand and create.

Congrats!!

Because they are too big to make intelligent decisions.

I cannot agree with you any harder about FUCKING MARKDOWN. Fuck me I hate that every fucking note app wants me to write in fucking markdown. FUCK. THAT. SHIT.

This really pisses me off. I have so much shit in OneNote and use it regularly.

Depends on context. Most of the time it’s just a confirmation. You are reading your insecurities into it.

If I want to make it sarcastic I like 👍👁️👄👁️👍

Yet…

It’s funny you listing out that experiment, because that’s more akin to the bullshit I run into with Linux when I need to fix some weird ass quirk. Tons if incorrect or outdated information, and forum assholes calling people idiots for not knowing and refusing to help or being autistically pedantic because you misspelled something. Support on either platform is a garbage experience. I haven’t denied that at all.

Granted it is becoming less true on 11. But I am not wrong about the rest. I run into abandonware that doesn’t work far more with Linux.

I’m aware not all software is consumer grade. And many depts like sci/lad/manufacturing/medical definitely have more to worry about with upgrades. Windows 11 is a shit show even at the consumer level, I’d hate to be managing a migration to it for an office, let alone any dept relying on custom hardware. But blaming windows for something that would just as easily happen on a linux machine is a bit disingenuous. Upgrades break shit across all the OSes. I’ve had to rebuild linux servers because an upgrade would break them and keeping them air gapped on a closed loop wasn’t an option.

Thanks for the suggestion, I will review the docs and see what can be improved.

Again though, those times are more exceptions than rules. I’m not saying Linux hasn’t come a long way. A lot of the distros I’ve worked with are much better than they were a decade ago. They just still aren’t the oobe needed to capture general end users.

But I can select nearly any software since Windows 7 and it will still work on windows 10/11. That is far less common on linux. It’s more a rule on windows with some exceptions vs linux being the inverse.

Support is stupid for both platforms. I don’t even want to touch that mess. Assholes and cunts on both sides and in different ways.

That example just proves my point further. No average joe is going to alter the execution policy because they aren’t running unsigned powershell scripts. They just want their applications to install and work. They don’t want to debug shit. You being fine doing all that is great but other people don’t want to mess with it and won’t.

Half the time instead of downloading and running an executable that works with nearly all versions of their OS, they have to figure out which os flavor they have since it’s not just “Linux” it’s Debian, Red Hat, Arch, Kali, Suse, CentOS, Mint, Pop, Ubuntu, etc. and then does it need to be compatible with gnome or kde or something else, then is the configuration even a supported option, oh wait it only supports versions newer than 5 years where anything older will fail, or only till 5 years ago and anything newer will fail. Or the one project that solved the issue stopped developing it 10 years prior and no longer works. Or there just plain isn’t a native app so now you have to try and find an alternative way to connect to a service you pay for that has an equivalent feature set and price.

Linux is a fractured mess overall. It is not user friendly. It is not out of the box ready. It’s a great option for someone technical that wants to type shit in a terminal. And it’s a bad option for anyone that doesn’t want to figure out what the magic words are that took the place of their double click.

Nice, I’ll have to try it out

You can definitely have your opinion. But seeing how so many people have a hard time switching to Linux because of this particular issue, I’d say your position on the subject is quesionable. There are hordes more people on Windows and Mac because they made things easier through accessible software. A large part of that was the GUI.
