linux is loving garbage poo poo from a dumpster's butt

ive wasted hours today trying to figure out how to make a linux work. im follwojng the i ternet guides word for word and reading over the man pages a million times and it doesnt help. linux spergs wont help u either bc they already went thru the evil that is linux and want everyone else to suffer as much as they did

maybe linux isn't the problem, maybe you just need to make your own distro.

It's not wasted if you can get someone to pay you (by the hour) for making their linuxes work.

I agree it can be a oval office to setup, but it isn't a garbage fire.
like, lol once it took 3 days to get a system running, turned out it couldn't handle a computer with one monitor being plugged into dvi port 2.

Guessing you are loving with x.org to get your graphics working? You can try to install drivers through synaptic package manager.
Or you have a shithouse wifi adaptor that requires homebrew drivers.

linux is actually very easy and nice & small, and you can make it boot from any computer with it installed on a thumb drive

you're just doing the keys wrong. that isn't a linuxes fault. sorry!

key stuff with ssh can actually be confusing for real though. i had issues earlier this year. i think it was a path thing, but i forget

I can only see someone spending hours trying to make Linux work if they installed some trash tier OS that tries to do dumb and obscure "smart" things like Debian. Arch Linux is really easy to setup and maintain because it does exactly what it says it'll do, it's no mystery.

what i like most about windows is it just works right out of the box! convenient, bug free, secure, and most importantly: usable

But then you have to use Windows afterwards, which is a major downside
