I wish every time someone talked shit about operating systems they woke up having switched OS with their grandmother.

[-] deus@lemmy.world 21 points 11 months ago

Good thing I installed Mint on her PC then.

[-] MrMamiya@feddit.de 13 points 11 months ago

I called her and convinced her to switch to DOS. Now you can play Chuck Yeager’s air combat. You’re welcome.

[-] OtakuAltair@lemm.ee 4 points 11 months ago

Same lmao, but for both my grandparents

They still haven't noticed anything different.

[-] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 1 points 11 months ago

They definitely have, they are just being nice.

[-] OtakuAltair@lemm.ee 3 points 11 months ago

You gravely underestimate my grandparents' inexperience with tech.

Mint is just Windows 10 but Linux anyway for normal use

Cinnamon:

– Mom can we get windows?

I would be so okay with this. My grandmother was a boss with a badass gaming rig.

She can't rice worth shit.

[-] Pantherina@feddit.de 3 points 11 months ago

What does that mean? Have the OS she had? Windows 10, I personally debloated it haha

[-] MrMamiya@feddit.de 4 points 11 months ago

No fair you cheated. She clicked an update for windows 11 and she loves Cortana!

[-] Aasikki@sopuli.xyz 1 points 11 months ago

I would have iPadOS 💀 Thankfully I hate all OS's equally.

[-] callyral@pawb.social 1 points 11 months ago

I don't think my grandmother used computers

[-] nadram@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago

Amen. Getting tired of this pointless bashing. They each have their flaws. I would love to be all-in on Linux but will probably never get there.
