RANT WARNING

Idiots, idiots everywhere!

Yeah, so the title isn't really news, but I was looking at a video of
someone saying they were switching from Win to Linux Mint. He was
ranting (his words) and just said Mint sucked and he couldn't get the
last non-subscription Fotoslop working on it. I just facepalmed
internally and called him out for complaining that Win software didn't
work perfectly on Linux Mint. Yeah, no fucking shit. Do you get mad
when you put an N64 cartridge on top of an Xbox Series X and nothing
happens? Fucking stupid asshole. It actually reminds me of people
whining that A-to-Z video showed digital rental/purchase movies in
their library when searching... Yeah, that's because you CAN watch it
there, but you have to pay for it. Don't fucking cry about having more
search results unless they're totally wrong. Some Win programs work
great with Wine, but many don't. Quit fucking crying about how Win
programs don't work flawlessly on not-Win when they shouldn't even
work at all on not-Win, dipshit. Anyone using their fucking brain
could understand this compatibility was a positive, not a negative.

As usual, my comments seem to disappear half the time. I haven't been
a good little lemming on Yu2b for the past several weeks. I went back
to look at it and just sorted by recent comments. I was shocked. I'm
hoping against hope that most of the commenters were just shitty AI,
but the amount of comments saying "Win10 is just fine to use" or
"Linux is just terrible. I've tried it 10 times and I still keep
coming back to Win" is crazy.

I really don't understand how fucking stupid you have to be to be
pissed off at Win enough to switch, dip your toe in GNU/Linux, and
then run back at the very first obstacle. I don't get it. I don't. If
you keep trying, maybe you should ACTUALLY TRY and fix your workflow
so you don't go back to an OS you clearly don't want to use. After
three times, just switch or don't try again.

"Win just works." I said that at one point, too. It used to. But Win11
is by far the most anti-consumer MS has ever been. It breaks, crashes,
and runs like a slug...on NVMe drives. If it "just worked," none of
these fucking videos would be made. Nobody would be switching. It
doesn't "just work."

At this point I kind of want to strangle right-brain digital "artists"
that swear up and down on Rotten Core and Ad0bee software. "I can't
use my damn FinalKut plugins! How will I add meaningless shitty
effects to my Yu2b vids?" "I hate Ad0bee. Why won't Ad0bee Fotoslop
2026 work on Linux? I need 2 use it cuz I'm a fucking moron that can't
edit images without Ad0bee."

My (least) favorite is this: "I don't have the time to learn anything
else." Translation: "I'm a fucking obstinate retard that can't be
bothered to find alternatives. I'm going to piss and moan about Win
while still using it because I don't want to learn new software." You
are already learning (supposedly) to use Linux, but Fotoslop is
something you can't live without? Go fuck yourself. Either take the
time to actually learn or shut the fuck up and go back to Win and
forfeit your right to complain about it abusing you when you keep
choosing to go back to it.

I really shouldn't be this surprised or this upset. After all, driving
in my hometown exposes that at least 20% of drivers are slow,
distracted shitheads. But it really does astound me how these fucking
worthless morons even managed to sign up for an online account.
