    The comments are so vague as to be useless.

    Windows. Everything is straight forward and I can still make some custom or niche stuff work.

    I can say the same thing about Linux.

    I don’t like Linux, because a lot of programs don’t work, and I don’t want to create my own 3D application or DAW from scratch.

    This sounds like a 2005 opinion. There is professional grade software on Linux (for example Pixar RenderMan). If there is a specific application a person needs that is Windows only (and there are many) that’s fine, but suggesting the need write your own application for Linux from scratch is ridiculous.

    As for “a lot of programs don’t work”, I have no clue what that’s supposed to mean… XD

      1. No one said linux doesnt work, the Person just said this is one point why He uses Windows.

      2. Building your own Software is definitely exaggerated.

      3. My graphics applications dont work properly (Affinity Suite), my Video Tool barely works although its supported natively (davinci), my DAW (maschine) and my music Hardware (maschine mk3) dont work at all. Installing my vsts is very Tricky (aome dont work at all). My cloud storage has no linux Client (proton drive). This is just the most important stuff for my use case, which keeps me from switching to Linux.

        I understand. Thank you for your response. :)

        I’ve used Linux exclusively since 2002 for school, work, hobbies, and gaming, and I sometimes forget how much is still missing.

        I tried Davinci for Linux and I agree, I could barely get it to work. XD
