    My sympathies go out to anybody forced to use a Linux desktop environment.

      My condolences to anyone who thinks windows is more usable / suited better to their use case in any way.

      My sympathies go out to anyone who doesn’t get paid when they have to waste time touching Windows.

      sorry but if you can’t navigate around something as simple as KDE Plasma that idiocy is on you my friend because you must be bottom of the barrel dumb to not be able to figure that out.

      As a life-long Windows user, Linux Mint’s Cinnamon UI feels very at-home. Hell, it feels more at-home than Win 11’s UI, since Win 11’s UI has so many weird choices and unnecessary changes from prior OSes.

        Windows 11 is fine for me honestly

        I don’t find it worse than Windows 10

          Sure, if that’s your baseline comparison

          But literally everything is better than windows 8 and above

      You don’t know enough about Linux to defend this argument.

      Just put a relatively tech unaware friend on mint. They’re doing very well so far!

      Which one specifically?

      While there are certainly Linux desktops I prefer more and those I prefer less, as someone who is forced to use Windows 11 at work I’d gladly take any Linux desktop environment over that mess.
