ROFL this rant is just taking everything away from Windows. Such hateful and delusional post it deserves a few words back:

  1. Gaming is the opposite of awful on Windows. It has decades behind and I still enjoy it. Every AAA title comes to this platform while to Linux well....The AAA titles and the indies as well are overwhelmingly single-player.
  2. I am using Notepad like right now :) I still can't believe a serious writer could allow a whole paragraph to the supposed missing of the state of the art text editor. But it's not missing and now it has zooming too :)
  3. File Explorer is the best it had in its existence. No there's no CLI lol. It is still a consumer OS for home users and professionals, not an admin panel :)
  4. Nothing breaks on installing fonts in WIndows and the install is even easier, look you don't even have to type strings in a command line lol
  5. Windows is not theming-friendly I give you that but that likens Windows users more to creators/consumers.
  6. Adobe is not best done on Mac. This is another unfortunate stereotype
  7. Why would Windows give you tools to build MacOS apps?! Does Apple provide tools to develop WIndows apps? I think you are after the wrong tools if you want to offer apps for these systems.

The conclusion is from where I stand the opposite of this "article". I value my time and money. I expect better from haters. It's been 30 years Linux and I am aware of its strenghts and uses but stealing the desktop hasn't it and it never will. It's too fragmented and doesn't seem to be anyone responsible for it. For the kernel sure, for filesystems sure, for x or y utility again sure. But who responds for the whole thing and where's the whole thing? Please don't refer me to distros I've used many of them, it never felt like the whole thing. I am very grateful Windows user.
