1 year agoI hate articles like this, so let’s go through it.
- 1: Fair, but it undermines how much you can tune Windows and MacOS, they are not nearly as set in stone as people think.
- 2: Completely true and based.
- 3: There is a Linux way of doing things, and there are many things that follow from that, like not being able to do advanced admin task without a command line, unlike on Windows. Lock-in also refers more to stuff like hardware lock in for MacOS not just the OS not having an option to change something.
- 4: Kinda fair, if you use the right distro with the right settings, but in my experience you still have to reboot semi-often.
- 5: I don’t get this one, Wine is on MacOS and Windows has WSL(g), so I don’t see how you are ahead on Linux at all.
- 6: This is kinda dumb kinda not dumb, Ignores the AppStore, WinStore, winget and other tools common on these OSs.
- 7: Ok, I’m good on this. People have some pretty sick Wallpaper engine and raindrop setups on Windows as well.
- 8: Nah, I don’t know what you are talking about there mate. based on my last few install sessions for laptops there are plenty of stuff that is glitchy as all hell.
Why do news sites include the meta tags in the HTML containing some of the content then if not for the express purpose of it being displayed on these sites?
