Confused as to how this translates to “Windows is shit, use Linux” to some people. But I’m quite literally using Linux and MacOS.
This isn’t an OS issue, it’s an issue of us allowing non-native applications to be the norm, allowing technology monoliths to dictate if an application works on a given day.
Dictating performance. When something ran slowly we used to re-home it onto faster hardware or upgrade components. Now we have “no matter how fast your device is, you’re gonna get shit performance”.
Waiting a second or more for an action to complete may be acceptable to some, but it’s a problem we solved around 2002.
