Comment on What’s even the appeal of Linux?
TerHu@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 months agoi have handed fedora kionite to a non-techie who was super happy with it, cuz it looks like windows, but most of the things you need, you can safely get via discover.

Some things i can get from discover but many things i use i have to manulally install. I just dont want to deal with containers and ostree and stuff. Maybe in the future i will.

What niche stuff are you manually installing that somehow takes hours on Linux, and is instant and easy on Windows?
DarkAri@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 months ago
Stuff like java, tetrd, local AI stuff.

Why do those take you hours to install on Linux and no time on Windows?

fair, but considering that you mentioned autoruns and such, i guess you need more specialised things anyways, so maybe kionite just isn’t for you. i don’t use it either, but for my normie friends who need nothing but a browser, office, and mby steam (in that case mby bazzite), its awesome

I will probably write a script to autorun everything i have in a folder or something eventually i think.
