Because game need marketing to run

Skeletons, not bones

Preggerant

I mean If you have all thoose proprietary apps availiable in linux, you probably wouldnt be introduced to foss apps. You probably keep on using the proprietary software you used in windows

I am not against people using linux for some other reason but I don’t want to promote linux just for people to use proprietary software. They could, but i am not interested in them and does feel useless if its not for software freedom. (That doesnt mean i am against people using them)

Btw if you dont know, software freedom is not about using whatever software you need. Its about a software that gives you the four essential freedoms

Well yes. I agree reccomending linux to others. But if the only reason someone isn’t switching linux is because some proprietary app doesnt support it, i don’t see they will care about free software later on. Also not everyone are like you and me, and may use linux without caring about software freedom at all.(I have a friend who uses google chrome AND edge)

It was not so common to use linux in schools in other states and in kerala, all government schools use a Kite Ubuntu which is fork of lts ubuntu. Its like the law to use free software for education in kerala. Me also got introduced to linux from school so i expected you are from kerala too. And Free software is most popular in kerala afaik.

The intensity of free software user group in kerala shows it too https://fsug.in/

I guess you don’t know its difference.

Free software means freedom and not the price. There are paid free software.

By defenition, free software is software that satisfy 4 essential freedoms

Freedom 0: Freedom to run the program any way you want on any of your devices

Freedom 1: To see and study how the program works and change it according to your needs. Source code of the entire program should be visible for this freedom

Freedom 2: Freedom to share copies of the original program(sharing is caring)

Freedom 3: Freedom to share copies of the modified version which you adapted to your needs such that whole community can benefit from your modifications

So yeah this is Free software, and when you say FOSS, its not about the price, but the freedom and control you get with the software. Why is this important? Because theese non-free softwares are taking away our freedom by even limiting “us” from using our “own” devices(DRM, locked bootloader, etc.), and it will be too late to realise how most proprietary softwares we use, and ones we are forced to use, captures our freedom.

Yeah probably some chrome update which made statscounter to fail to determine the OS, probably

Personally I don’t want people to switch to linux without caring about software freedom. I mean it might be nice to run adobe software in linux but I will not use it, and such softwares have same problems like “windows” which we are switching away from. They are proprietary programs from corporations which doesn’t even satisfy freedom 0.

Are you from kerala?

FOSS or paid

I hope you know the difference between Free(Libre) and Free(gratis)

Linux mint provides the best overall user experience including drivers support

Ah yes! Post everything in every community

It’s more of a crappy design than mildly infuriating

Instance…

Don’t google block your tor browser?

Well thats true though…

Well i hate this:

PS > .\program.exe 0

THIS:

.\

The screenshot shows Tubo-chromium. Looks like its just chromium

I just imitated your tone with ‘popular’ didnt mean anything much.
