Linux has made significant strides, and in 2023, it’s better than ever. However, there are still individuals perpetuating a delusion: that desktop Linux is as user-friendly and productive as its mainstream counterparts. After a few discussions on Lemmy, I believe it’s important to provide a clear review of where Linux falls short as a daily driver for average users.

EDIT: can I just make it clear I don't agree with this article one bit and think it's an unhinged polemic?

    Factual will be relative, and no matter what I say you’ll find a way to turn this into a fight.

    What other apps compete with photoshop besides gimp?

      You started with "gimp is shit", so why not provide reasons for it?

      Or is this the apple vs android, coffee vs tea, stick vs automatic kind of subjective argument?

      What other products on windows compete with photoshop in your opinion? I don't get your reason>!!<

          Nope. That's called the burden of proof. You started by saying "gimp is shit", it's up to you to prove it, it's not up to the people responding you to disprove your point of view. What you're doing right now is called a fallacy and just totally discredit yourself.

            No. Im asking for alternatives, and then saying my opinion is that gimp is shit.

            Making excuses for not answering my question is pretty lame. If I answer you, you won’t answer me. You’ll just attack my opinions and leave. No thanks lol

          The answer is simple, Gimp is the only "full featured" photoshop replacement. And the os doesn't matter for this. There is no alternative in windows besides gimp. Apples products also fall short.

          And now, why is gimp shit?
