Sure. Though practically it doesn't pan out that way cos of many factors. Instead of being unnecessarily frustrated and idiotically loading the results of your emotional instability onto someone else with knee-jerk reactions, consider doing something as simple as asking questions..getting contexts, clarifications, etc. Also, something else you should know - never use the word "retard" again like you do.

I enjoy Linux the most but honestly Chrome OS is pretty impressive and has a Linux container you can enable and install Linux apps.

Techie Windows users should try Linux, and Apple people, are generally Apple people from watch to phone to iPad and Mac they've bought in and hey it all works, but hard to move away from.
Hey Chris, your macOS display seems like Non-HiDPI. You need to disable SIP for mac and install RDM application. In there you can select the "Thunder Logo" resolution for better display. If you don't find any supported resolutions, you can create your own resolution with HiDPI and Retina properties. If you are having any problems with it, I can help you out.
The side effect of adopting Linux is you become your own tech support person after the first week of being overawed. Your googling skills gets better. You do this long enough, and you'll gain enough experience in spotting patterns for why something isn't working.
I'm glad when I don't have to ddg for something because it works. Luckily by now, I have used both Windows and Linux for so long that slipping up became a rare circumstance.
I agree. But sometimes you mess up something big time and then you are stuck trying to fix it googling for hours. I had that patience in my undergrad days. But now with my work , its more of a frustration and simply a pain in the pass without p.
Great Video. Think you got it bang on. Personally I would say at the moment "not being a PC gamer" Windows as an operating system from version 10 is now my least favourite and this is seemingly only going to get worst with Windows 11 :-(
Thank you, Chris. I have found that the people I have given Linux installs to and that had problems learning it and so went back to Mac or Windows have had catastrophic problems with those requiring (they thought) buying new pre-installed hardware and so on.
As a relatively tech savvy Windows User I used Linux on my first DIY Desktop PC back in the summer of 2019. Originally it was a cost cutting measure, plus I also wanted to try something new. I still use a W10 laptop, a ThinkPad E570, as my couch browser/typewriter, but I plan to eventually put Linux on it once support for W10 ends. For home-use I think Linux is a great alternative, but it is not for the timid. It has a relatively steep learning curve, but after the first month, sticking through and working out my own mistakes, I don't think I'll ever go back to Windows for my gaming and media server needs. Maybe if a future workplace requires Windows or Mac, then I'll get a laptop from work, but for my own home-use I'll be sticking with Linux.
love your work and video's, am learning alot about of you about windows, because i use 15+ years debian, and yes i need know windows os 2 for my daytime job , good weekend and succes with your new channel !!
Linux is the best OS for the computer recycling industry. Linux is used 100% of the time, often a custom spin of Ubuntu. Recycling centres that sell low cost refurbished computers to eligible people on low budgets, have no problems getting people to use Linux - even for older people who have never used a computer.
Basic users usually don't care as long as it works. People who buy lower end hardware need a PC that can do web browsing and some light document editing which works on Linux right out of the box.
I use Kubuntu like you describe a windows user. My old Lenovo T440 with only 4gb ram runs smooth. I once ran Citrix to access my workplace setup. It was a much better experience than Citrix on a windows pc.
Appreciate your perspective on this, Chris. Thanks to your work, I’ve been inspired to switch over my gaming rig to Linux, really enjoying the customization and tinkering aspect of things and the sort of “daring” or almost “taboo” nature of getting all my favorite games running in a non-Windows box. While I appreciate your perspective on Mac and don’t think it’s necessarily wrong, I might also suggest another-I’m using well-aged hardware in the Mac ecosystem and enjoying a longevity rivaled only by Linux. My desktop workhorse is a second-hand 2010 Mac Pro which runs Mojave (my favorite version of MacOS), and compared to most standard consumer setups my nearly 12 year old hardware still kicks butt. My mobile setup is a 2013 MacBook Pro also running Mojave, and again compared to what most folks are using for general productivity, the machine works like it did on day one. And while I agree the average consumer might only look as far as the App Store, the open source community is vast and vibrant on MacOS and easy to find. Again, totally not bashing your perspective, but I think there’s something to be said for the longevity and real utility some users get out of their Macs not because they’re millionaires but because in certain moments Apple has just gotten really right in terms of the synergy between hardware, software, and building tools that are built to last. Obviously, they’ve spent a fair amount of time not getting one or all of those aspects right, but when they do nail it, it’s an impressive feat. Thank you for your work!
I'm happy that I have access to all 3 operating systems as I can't imagine using only one for everything. Sure you can only use one of them but I think that having access to Windows, Linux and MacOS really maximizes productivity.
Great! Windows can hold the title as the most used OS for Desktops & laptops, but Linux Mint is the fastest bottom line😃 Thank you Chris for your support to the community, by the way I did sub to this channel as well 👍
I've been a LInux Mint Cinnamon, Xfce, and Mate user off and on for 10 years and Mint cinnamon for just over a solid year 100%. I can tell you for certain, Linux Mint and Windows in terms of overall performance ...ARE NECK and neck depending on the individual situation or what you're doing. Regardless, even if worst case there are or were times where LM is slower than Windows by a small degree, It's STILL worth it for I own my PC..not microshit...I DECIDE when it updates, how it updates, etc..not microshit and I never have to worry about some hypocritical lying big corporation installing keyloggers and other spyware into .MY system and selling my data and not giving me a cut of the profits. I couldn't agree more with the compliment to Chris though. *nods humbly*. He is one of the 4 main reason's I've been able to switch to Linux 100%
@@motoryzen 2 things i found mint is slower than windows, extracting a .rar file and trimming the hard disk. Thats it. Its almost the same difference, well not the same, windows take longer, when you do a disk cleanup in windows including system files after a major update and compare it to apt autoremove and autoclean in mint.
@@pavlospilakoutas trimming the hard disk? 1 ya don't need to defrag anymore if you meant defrag. That's been the case in any modern distro since 2014 or newer or Windows since 8 or newer. 2.

Definitely agree with you. Boss had Mac with older HDD. Felt slow and buggy to me. Finally convinced him to move me to a Lenovo SFF and my productivity is 10X what it was before. Now if I didn’t need windows I would be on Linux because that is just far more productive.
@@peterbreis5407here are several bugs in Mac os. Memory leaks and issues with external drives..any mac system admin knows that. How do you know is so stable? What do you do to back that claim?
There is no such thing as the best OS. I know that idea will not sit well with many Linux fanboys. And to a considerable lesser degree, macOS & Windows fans as well. There are hard core believers in each platform that are willing to argue till the end of time. Frankly, it is just so last week. Choosing an OS comes from a place of personal preference and what actually allows you to do what you want to do. I want an OS that will be stable, easy to use, looks good and lets me get my work done without interfering and gives me a consistent user experience every time. For me that is macOS. For another, it will be Windows. Why?.. Because that users needs are different than mine. And if I weren't using macOS, I would take move to FreeBSD.
An OS is primarily a tool. Like a hammer. That said, just imagine how stupid one would sound if they saw someone using a different hammer than the one they like, following it up with a rant about how they're wrong for using that hammer. I use Arch btw :)
I dont get it. I really dont. I have not experienced this windows update just popping up. maybe because i do not pause updates, and just wait a long time not updating the os, until the pc just forces the update at an inconvenient time. Its quite simple to just click check for updates when youre going out to lunch, or going to bed, and just let the pc do its thing.
Typically the forced updates happen from poor computing practices. A lot of users "Lock" their PC instead of logging out or rebooting. Many time with open applications that block updates. This will cause a forced update after it goes on long enough. I'm constantly telling people to reboot or logout, but most folks just don't care or are simply lazy. The thing is Mac and Linux are much more forgiving of this behavior because they aren't nearly as vulnerable as an unpatched windows.
Office runs ok on MacOS... there are honestly a lot of downsides to use Office on MacOS instead of Windows... a lot of functions are missing and stuff works slightly differently...
Why doesn't Windows file explorer still not remember the previous directories, where you are currently working on? It takes so much time to change the directory, if it is even a little further away.
Linux has a steep learning curve, but after that, your understanding of how a computer works is much higher than the average user's, and that will help you when dealing with troubles in any OS.
I started using linux in march, and i will never go back to windows unless something major changes, even arch linux is just so much less work to me, not to mention how much easier it makes development, and about games, all games i've tried on linux work just fine, and i expect it to be even better when the steam deck is released
Another thing as an exclusive window user is that they shove there own apps Microsoft apps live the notorious Microsoft Edge, One Drive, and last but not least Microsoft Office

Chirs on Linux I disagree about technical support. You can make a standardized image and lock it down so that end-users can only do what you allow them to do. It one of the reasons why more government agencies (in order to save licensing fees) can and should use Linux. I myself don't know how to do this but I'm sure it something that would be very interesting to explore. Organizational Linux installations and management.
Hey! Would be glad to know what you're using to run games. Are there any ones that you couldn't play normally because of Linux? Considering moving on Linux completely as I've noticed that I'm using Linux through WSL in Windows more than actual Windows :)
I wanted to try Qubes, but unfortunately it seems to be a nightmare when yo are running an Nvidia card? Got about as far as using nano editor via CMD to load the ISO Boot.cfg files that need to be edited, but couldn't get past changing file permissions on ISO files if that's even possible. Looking for alternative OS to play around in now.
Linux can be controlled if you want and can look like any version of windows or mac and has apps for 99.9% of users would be happy. Yes I am making assumpyions but so is everyone else. Put the effort into it and it works better than the alternates.
The best os ever made was Control Data NOS/VE. Of course, it's 35 years old, and there are only a couple of machines in the world that can run it, and it was just getting a GUI towards the end. Oh, well. Nostalgia. Always makes things better than they ever were.
I know for me I use Linux at home but do very little on my computer at home so that works for me. My computer at work runs Windows as that is what we run and what I need to support. I do not use a lot of what Windows offers as well but need to run it since that is what I am given to use. I have used Mac back in the day as it was my first computer in the old dial up days of the Internet. I even used it during the switch over to Mac X but left it shortly after as I can not afford it.
now it depends on what ypu are. i myself am a hacker/programmer and i wold 100% reccomend kali or parrot os for hacking. on the other hand the onther os es are better for everyday usage (windows, macos, chromeos... maybe even ubuntu but not that reccomended). so it truly depends what ypu need it for.
One of the things I like about this video is that a lot of tech folks online seem to be diehard Linux advocates. Linux is the ONE operating system for everyone in ALL circumstances... which really gets tiring. I agree Linux has its strong points, but most of those strong points can only be utilized if you're going to dig in a lot more than most people are going to do. And for most of us if you want Linux to get along with work,... well, you're likely going to have more problems than it's worth. Windows is the big guy... doesn't make it better in all ways by any means, but it's everywhere. I've never gotten into Mac much. I do know that it has its advantages too, but it's also the most expensive. One of the big frustrations with Mac is getting a VM of Mac working on Windows... I think I finally got one working about a year ago, but I never really did much with it anyway. It'd probably be better to have Mac on its own machine. Question... can you download an ISO of a Mac operating system and install it on any old PC?
I run Linux Mint for may desktop computer, at home, running VirtualBox with a Win10 VM. I have an acer laptop running Windows 10. It was about $250 6 years ago, after RAM-upgrade. I have a Dell Laptop running Linux Mint. I use Linux for most tasks, but I have Windows for the odd applications where I cant run on Linux. When I go to campus, the official requrement is Windows 10 or MacOS 10.15 I guess I'll stick with my old acer laptop for those tasks, and enjoy Linux Mint at home :-)
I like the idea of open source. I was thinking of installing Ubuntu on my desktop, but unfortunately I sometimes need a CAD program that can save in DXF, and at the time I couldn't find any. Now I see there are some, but its too late. I suppose when my computer dies and I have to build a new one...
I installed Ubuntu with Gnome to get accustomed with mainstream Linux desktop. I have to say I expected something a little more polished. I mean there are a lot of cool features there, but I see bugs and limitations while trying to do basic things. Yesterday I pulled out my good old T420 and found that VPN that always worked - won't- and I could quickly set it up on Windows but not anymore on Ubuntu. Update would not work due to broken index. So I will be installing fresh, I guess. Still, there is no replacement for not being spied upon all the time. That is why I would pay for linux desktop distro that just works every time.
One thing you forgot that I think is important that favours windows. Hardware support and a wider list applications, especially obscure ones, in particular for professionals. For example zero pro audio interfaces with compete drivers, even Mac has that.Linux doesn't, just USB compliant ones, but that is very limited, and companies have no interest to support such devices on Linux either. and well said in conclusion :)
Yeah, Windows has a TON of support from 3rd parties and is one of its saving graces. I just had my stream PC blue screen in the middle of a stream and I don't see Windows being the primary OS in 10 years though. I don't think Microsoft has the ability to keep their lock in and improve Windows to where it needs to be.

Good video, always like your content. I disagree with some of your macOS comments. For me, the best OS by far is macOS, followed by the best Linux which is Solus Gnome. I’m a Windows expert too, which provides for me a good income but is certainly low down on the list.
Yeah they are really good... ...if want an eyerolling waste of time playing those great Linux games of "Blame the User" "Chase the dead links" and "Resolve all the contradictory suggestions".
Yeah there’s no bias here in the comments. Lol. Let’s be real - highly productive independent creative professionals don’t have time to tinker with their operating systems and hardware. Time, smooth flow, and easy system migrations quickly become much more valuable than the up-front cost of hardware and software once there’s a backlog of new work. For this and many other reasons, Windows is often a terrible and cruel joke and the creative professionals who must use it should be blessed - as they shall inherit the Earth. And although it’s getting closer for sure (thanks to the efforts of many incredible open-source contributors), Linux just has too many gaps and inconsistencies as a high productivity desktop environment for independent creative professionals’ workflows. Only places I’ve seen Linux in professional creative workflows is in mid-to-big budget environments with dedicated IT teams who setup and support proprietary Linux based environments and workflows. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
these days i feel like we shouldn't treat linux like single operating system but rather as a family of operating systems sure it runs the same programs but the ui/ux, workflow, aim,target demographic and support are just.....different take elementaryos for example, its not made to be very configurable and as a result is very consistent or something like ubuntu touch which offers image based updates and simply doesn't allow you to mess with the rootfs out of the box, making it easier to provide support compare that with gentoo where you can do what you want, and as a result it is probably the most inconsistent out of them all. point in case: ChromeOS is gentoo linux :3

If you burn money, use Mac. If you are a power user, use one of the Linux operating systems. If you are a smart power user, use one of the BSD operating systems.

Work: Never had a choice Windows. Home Linux, Windows, and a Chromebook. I enjoy Linux the most but honestly Chrome OS is pretty impressive and has a Linux container you can enable and install Linux apps. If you're concerned about Google then it's a no go, but I think casual Windows users would be well served by a Chromebook. Techie Windows users should try Linux, and Apple people, are generally Apple people from watch to phone to iPad and Mac they've bought in and hey it all works, but hard to move away from.
Hey Chris, your macOS display seems like Non-HiDPI. You need to disable SIP for mac and install RDM application. In there you can select the "Thunder Logo" resolution for better display. If you don't find any supported resolutions, you can create your own resolution with HiDPI and Retina properties. If you are having any problems with it, I can help you out.
Thanks GSN, I have it hooked up to a throw away monitor from work and haven't noticed anything. I'll look this up and get it fixed.
Maaaaaaan, you're so honest, thank you for the advices, i really can't find anything else to look for. 🙏💖
The side effect of adopting Linux is you become your own tech support person after the first week of being overawed. Your googling skills gets better. You do this long enough, and you'll gain enough experience in spotting patterns for why something isn't working.
I'm glad when I don't have to ddg for something because it works.
Luckily by now, I have used both Windows and Linux for so long that slipping up became a rare circumstance.
That's probably the dumbest reason for someone adopting Linux.
@@kvin9210 there is a difference between 'reason' and 'side effects' yes? I am talking about the latter, you are referring to the former.
I agree. But sometimes you mess up something big time and then you are stuck trying to fix it googling for hours. I had that patience in my undergrad days. But now with my work , its more of a frustration and simply a pain in the pass without p.
Very good video. It is interesting to hear a rational and informative overview of these systems.
Chris: What's the best operating system?
Me: Titus OS
😁😇
Great Video. Think you got it bang on. Personally I would say at the moment "not being a PC gamer" Windows as an operating system from version 10 is now my least favourite and this is seemingly only going to get worst with Windows 11 :-(
Thank you, Chris. I have found that the people I have given Linux installs to and that had problems learning it and so went back to Mac or Windows have had catastrophic problems with those requiring (they thought) buying new pre-installed hardware and so on.
As a relatively tech savvy Windows User I used Linux on my first DIY Desktop PC back in the summer of 2019. Originally it was a cost cutting measure, plus I also wanted to try something new. I still use a W10 laptop, a ThinkPad E570, as my couch browser/typewriter, but I plan to eventually put Linux on it once support for W10 ends. For home-use I think Linux is a great alternative, but it is not for the timid. It has a relatively steep learning curve, but after the first month, sticking through and working out my own mistakes, I don't think I'll ever go back to Windows for my gaming and media server needs. Maybe if a future workplace requires Windows or Mac, then I'll get a laptop from work, but for my own home-use I'll be sticking with Linux.
just dual boot bro
love your work and video's, am learning alot about of you about windows, because i use 15+ years debian, and yes i need know windows os 2 for my daytime job , good weekend and succes with your new channel !!
I wonder how many more DECADES it'll take for Microsoft to get their update system to work in a user friendly fashion.
I mean they improved it from the sudden interrupts that were a thing during the XP era.
Hey Chris, loving ALL your videos of late since discovering your channel a few months back, many thanks, kindest regards Richard U.K
Linux is the best OS for the computer recycling industry. Linux is used 100% of the time, often a custom spin of Ubuntu. Recycling centres that sell low cost refurbished computers to eligible people on low budgets, have no problems getting people to use Linux - even for older people who have never used a computer.
Basic users usually don't care as long as it works. People who buy lower end hardware need a PC that can do web browsing and some light document editing which works on Linux right out of the box.
I use Kubuntu like you describe a windows user. My old Lenovo T440 with only 4gb ram runs smooth. I once ran Citrix to access my workplace setup. It was a much better experience than Citrix on a windows pc.
T420 with Kubuntu LTS here (albeit I prefer my X240 with openSuSE), it's a solid experience.
Appreciate your perspective on this, Chris. Thanks to your work, I’ve been inspired to switch over my gaming rig to Linux, really enjoying the customization and tinkering aspect of things and the sort of “daring” or almost “taboo” nature of getting all my favorite games running in a non-Windows box. While I appreciate your perspective on Mac and don’t think it’s necessarily wrong, I might also suggest another-I’m using well-aged hardware in the Mac ecosystem and enjoying a longevity rivaled only by Linux. My desktop workhorse is a second-hand 2010 Mac Pro which runs Mojave (my favorite version of MacOS), and compared to most standard consumer setups my nearly 12 year old hardware still kicks butt. My mobile setup is a 2013 MacBook Pro also running Mojave, and again compared to what most folks are using for general productivity, the machine works like it did on day one. And while I agree the average consumer might only look as far as the App Store, the open source community is vast and vibrant on MacOS and easy to find. Again, totally not bashing your perspective, but I think there’s something to be said for the longevity and real utility some users get out of their Macs not because they’re millionaires but because in certain moments Apple has just gotten really right in terms of the synergy between hardware, software, and building tools that are built to last. Obviously, they’ve spent a fair amount of time not getting one or all of those aspects right, but when they do nail it, it’s an impressive feat. Thank you for your work!
I'm happy that I have access to all 3 operating systems as I can't imagine using only one for everything. Sure you can only use one of them but I think that having access to Windows, Linux and MacOS really maximizes productivity.
Great! Windows can hold the title as the most used OS for Desktops & laptops, but Linux Mint is the fastest bottom line😃
Thank you Chris for your support to the community, by the way I did sub to this channel as well 👍
I've been a LInux Mint Cinnamon, Xfce, and Mate user off and on for 10 years and Mint cinnamon for just over a solid year 100%. I can tell you for certain, Linux Mint and Windows in terms of overall performance ...ARE NECK and neck depending on the individual situation or what you're doing.
Regardless, even if worst case there are or were times where LM is slower than Windows by a small degree, It's STILL worth it for I own my PC..not microshit...I DECIDE when it updates, how it updates, etc..not microshit and I never have to worry about some hypocritical lying big corporation installing keyloggers and other spyware into .MY system and selling my data and not giving me a cut of the profits.
I couldn't agree more with the compliment to Chris though. *nods humbly*. He is one of the 4 main reason's I've been able to switch to Linux 100%
@@motoryzen 2 things i found mint is slower than windows, extracting a .rar file and trimming the hard disk.
Thats it. Its almost the same difference, well not the same, windows take longer, when you do a disk cleanup in windows including system files after a major update and compare it to apt autoremove and autoclean in mint.

Definitely agree with you. Boss had Mac with older HDD. Felt slow and buggy to me. Finally convinced him to move me to a Lenovo SFF and my productivity is 10X what it was before. Now if I didn’t need windows I would be on Linux because that is just far more productive.
Just run the Mac off a SSD drive.
What was buggy? macOS is extraordinarily stable, more so than Linux. Are you confusing Apps with the OS?
@@peterbreis5407here are several bugs in Mac os. Memory leaks and issues with external drives..any mac system admin knows that.
How do you know is so stable? What do you do to back that claim?
There is no such thing as the best OS. I know that idea will not sit well with many Linux fanboys. And to a considerable lesser degree, macOS & Windows fans as well. There are hard core believers in each platform that are willing to argue till the end of time. Frankly, it is just so last week.
Choosing an OS comes from a place of personal preference and what actually allows you to do what you want to do. I want an OS that will be stable, easy to use, looks good and lets me get my work done without interfering and gives me a consistent user experience every time. For me that is macOS. For another, it will be Windows. Why?.. Because that users needs are different than mine.
And if I weren't using macOS, I would take move to FreeBSD.
An OS is primarily a tool. Like a hammer.
That said, just imagine how stupid one would sound if they saw someone using a different hammer than the one they like, following it up with a rant about how they're wrong for using that hammer.
I use Arch btw :)
@@patrikgrguric535 Exactly..
I sure wish you had considered OS/2 (now updated as ARC-OS). Still find it efficient and fun to use!
Windows 10 is the best Operating System of all time.
As someone who daily drives linux, windows 10 is fantastic. Just because you like linux doesn’t mean you have to hate windows!
Great video and great explanation.
What Operating System is the Best? The one that makes you more productive.
Windows 10 for me.
Windows 11
I dont get it. I really dont. I have not experienced this windows update just popping up. maybe because i do not pause updates, and just wait a long time not updating the os, until the pc just forces the update at an inconvenient time. Its quite simple to just click check for updates when youre going out to lunch, or going to bed, and just let the pc do its thing.
Typically the forced updates happen from poor computing practices. A lot of users "Lock" their PC instead of logging out or rebooting. Many time with open applications that block updates. This will cause a forced update after it goes on long enough.
I'm constantly telling people to reboot or logout, but most folks just don't care or are simply lazy.
The thing is Mac and Linux are much more forgiving of this behavior because they aren't nearly as vulnerable as an unpatched windows.
Office runs ok on MacOS... there are honestly a lot of downsides to use Office on MacOS instead of Windows... a lot of functions are missing and stuff works slightly differently...
Why doesn't Windows file explorer still not remember the previous directories, where you are currently working on? It takes so much time to change the directory, if it is even a little further away.
It does remember the directories you access most often.
You can always pin them.
Linux has a steep learning curve, but after that, your understanding of how a computer works is much higher than the average user's, and that will help you when dealing with troubles in any OS.
I started using linux in march, and i will never go back to windows unless something major changes, even arch linux is just so much less work to me, not to mention how much easier it makes development, and about games, all games i've tried on linux work just fine, and i expect it to be even better when the steam deck is released
Another thing as an exclusive window user is that they shove there own apps Microsoft apps live the notorious Microsoft Edge, One Drive, and last but not least Microsoft Office
N O N E !!
Use what works for you!!!!!

Na love you man you got me into Linux and even linus tech tips which is weird
Chirs on Linux I disagree about technical support. You can make a standardized image and lock it down so that end-users can only do what you allow them to do. It one of the reasons why more government agencies (in order to save licensing fees) can and should use Linux. I myself don't know how to do this but I'm sure it something that would be very interesting to explore. Organizational Linux installations and management.
Just use Gnome. Problem solved 😄
I consider myself a pretty hardcore gamer (144 Hz monitor, sensitive for input lag, almost all genres) but I only game on Linux. :p
Hey! Would be glad to know what you're using to run games. Are there any ones that you couldn't play normally because of Linux? Considering moving on Linux completely as I've noticed that I'm using Linux through WSL in Windows more than actual Windows :)
Somehow my reply got removed. I don't know why. Chris, is there a problem with it ending up in the spambox somehow?
I hope you include special hardware like VR HMDs and driving wheels in your comment.
Very nice video, Chris!
The correct answer is Arch
BTW I use arch
Hi Chris. i use your tools daily in the field, you a godsent
I wanted to try Qubes, but unfortunately it seems to be a nightmare when yo are running an Nvidia card? Got about as far as using nano editor via CMD to load the ISO Boot.cfg files that need to be edited, but couldn't get past changing file permissions on ISO files if that's even possible. Looking for alternative OS to play around in now.
I use all the Three OS for specific work . win 11 for gaming and some old software, Linux for pen testing and EH, MacOS for dev and editing .
If you want security then OpenVMS (go look it up)
I am still using BE OS. Very reliable OS.
How is hardware support for Nvidia RTX30x0 cards so far?
@@henson2k Fantastic, mate. Everything is working perfectly.
The best system is the one you like and it must run stable on your computer. Linux gives me choices. My choice.
My PC with Windows 7 in my office get blue screen all the time.. but I have no choice.
Linux can be controlled if you want and can look like any version of windows or mac and has apps for 99.9% of users would be happy. Yes I am making assumpyions but so is everyone else. Put the effort into it and it works better than the alternates.
Ahh, effort? after just being able to just plug and play?
The best os ever made was Control Data NOS/VE. Of course, it's 35 years old, and there are only a couple of machines in the world that can run it, and it was just getting a GUI towards the end.
Oh, well. Nostalgia. Always makes things better than they ever were.
Chris what do you think about the old Amiga OS?
Gimp is old but you right is awesome. Thank you I really appreciate and you are 👍 👌 ❤️
I know for me I use Linux at home but do very little on my computer at home so that works for me. My computer at work runs Windows as that is what we run and what I need to support. I do not use a lot of what Windows offers as well but need to run it since that is what I am given to use. I have used Mac back in the day as it was my first computer in the old dial up days of the Internet. I even used it during the switch over to Mac X but left it shortly after as I can not afford it.
now it depends on what ypu are. i myself am a hacker/programmer and i wold 100% reccomend kali or parrot os for hacking. on the other hand the onther os es are better for everyday usage (windows, macos, chromeos... maybe even ubuntu but not that reccomended). so it truly depends what ypu need it for.
One of the things I like about this video is that a lot of tech folks online seem to be diehard Linux advocates. Linux is the ONE operating system for everyone in ALL circumstances... which really gets tiring. I agree Linux has its strong points, but most of those strong points can only be utilized if you're going to dig in a lot more than most people are going to do. And for most of us if you want Linux to get along with work,... well, you're likely going to have more problems than it's worth. Windows is the big guy... doesn't make it better in all ways by any means, but it's everywhere. I've never gotten into Mac much. I do know that it has its advantages too, but it's also the most expensive. One of the big frustrations with Mac is getting a VM of Mac working on Windows... I think I finally got one working about a year ago, but I never really did much with it anyway. It'd probably be better to have Mac on its own machine. Question... can you download an ISO of a Mac operating system and install it on any old PC?
I run Linux Mint for may desktop computer, at home, running VirtualBox with a Win10 VM.
I have an acer laptop running Windows 10. It was about $250 6 years ago, after RAM-upgrade.
I have a Dell Laptop running Linux Mint.
I use Linux for most tasks, but I have Windows for the odd applications where I cant run on Linux.
When I go to campus, the official requrement is Windows 10 or MacOS 10.15
I guess I'll stick with my old acer laptop for those tasks, and enjoy Linux Mint at home :-)
I like the idea of open source. I was thinking of installing Ubuntu on my desktop, but unfortunately I sometimes need a CAD program that can save in DXF, and at the time I couldn't find any. Now I see there are some, but its too late. I suppose when my computer dies and I have to build a new one...
100% agree
I installed Ubuntu with Gnome to get accustomed with mainstream Linux desktop. I have to say I expected something a little more polished. I mean there are a lot of cool features there, but I see bugs and limitations while trying to do basic things.
Yesterday I pulled out my good old T420 and found that VPN that always worked - won't- and I could quickly set it up on Windows but not anymore on Ubuntu. Update would not work due to broken index. So I will be installing fresh, I guess.
Still, there is no replacement for not being spied upon all the time. That is why I would pay for linux desktop distro that just works every time.
One thing you forgot that I think is important that favours windows. Hardware support and a wider list applications, especially obscure ones, in particular for professionals. For example zero pro audio interfaces with compete drivers, even Mac has that.Linux doesn't, just USB compliant ones, but that is very limited, and companies have no interest to support such devices on Linux either.
and well said in conclusion :)
Yeah, Windows has a TON of support from 3rd parties and is one of its saving graces. I just had my stream PC blue screen in the middle of a stream and I don't see Windows being the primary OS in 10 years though. I don't think Microsoft has the ability to keep their lock in and improve Windows to where it needs to be.
@@TitusTechTalk Yeah. I think Mac will gain ground, as much as I love Linux I don't see it ever dominating on the desktop either.
I know Linux evangelist will disagree, ha :D
@@afborro As long as they are a premium brand I dont see them dominating the market share worldwide. In the US yes they can. Linux or another OS will beat Windows if ever.
@@zubochonk9205 I presume you mean MAC I referred to ? then I agree, it wasn't my intention to say domination, merely gain ground (as I put it). Lets say 10% to Mac from windows I can easily see happening in the next few years. Much will depend if MS keep pissing people off too and/or if they keep breaking things with updates, to be fair I have personally not experienced such issues for many years. Not seen a blue screen for a decade except for one (2004) upgrade on my personal machines.

The best operating system will always be TempleOS

What Distributions KDE Plasma ur using in this video? Kubuntu or KDE Neon?
Tnx man 👍
Yeah there’s no bias here in the comments. Lol. Let’s be real - highly productive independent creative professionals don’t have time to tinker with their operating systems and hardware. Time, smooth flow, and easy system migrations quickly become much more valuable than the up-front cost of hardware and software once there’s a backlog of new work. For this and many other reasons, Windows is often a terrible and cruel joke and the creative professionals who must use it should be blessed - as they shall inherit the Earth. And although it’s getting closer for sure (thanks to the efforts of many incredible open-source contributors), Linux just has too many gaps and inconsistencies as a high productivity desktop environment for independent creative professionals’ workflows. Only places I’ve seen Linux in professional creative workflows is in mid-to-big budget environments with dedicated IT teams who setup and support proprietary Linux based environments and workflows. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
which linux distro is being used?
these days i feel like we shouldn't treat linux like single operating system but rather as a family of operating systems
sure it runs the same programs but the ui/ux, workflow, aim,target demographic and support are just.....different
take elementaryos for example, its not made to be very configurable and as a result is very consistent
or something like ubuntu touch which offers image based updates and simply doesn't allow you to mess with the rootfs out of the box, making it easier to provide support
compare that with gentoo where you can do what you want, and as a result it is probably the most inconsistent out of them all. point in case: ChromeOS is gentoo linux :3
