Curious, I've seen it all over lemmy. I've got a couple different accounts for... reasons, and on one I tried to make the point that for some demographics, like my parents/grandparents, Windows is the best OS. I was immediately berated for MANY reasons including, being a failure for not educating my family, not caring about my family's safety, personally signing them up for the FasTrack to identity theft and scammers, and that Linux is ACTuaLLY simpler and easier to use.
This is pretty tame compared to the piracy guys as well.
Yeah you're pretty much objectively wrong there. With OSX you could've had a point but Windows is a nightmare if you have to administer a box for family.
...don't tell me your parents and grandparents absolutely have to use 3ds Max.
How do you literally, literally run head-first into the point and still miss it?
I didn't miss it. It's rule 386.
What's the 3dsmax bit from ?
It's random software that indeed only runs on Windows. There's not even a Mac version.
...but it's also software that people generally don't use privately, and for which FLOSS alternatives exist (Blender), arguably better software and because free also used by hobbyists, and even more insanely powerful commercial software that also runs on Linux (Houdini). Frankly speaking I'm surprised that a DOS 3d software package even made it into currentyear with all that IRIX competition.
I am familiar with it, I was just wondering where you pulled that from ? I didn't see it mentioned in the OP
Some studios depend on it because they have a whole pipeline&talent revolving around it, but hobbyists ? indeed that's weird
The main point is that there's probably no Windows-only software that parents+grandparents absolutely need.
