disclaimer: the text below was originally written by me in a Telegram comment section in Russian while under some concoction of vitamin candy, cheap coffee and mango soda. i think this just needs to be put out there, because the brain is a wonderful mechanism. this below is pretty much a literal translation of what i wrote to english.
linux was not made for the desktop. xorg and, god forgive me, wayland are greatest mistakes of the smartest developers of mankind. you were given a system that works with text better than with graphics any day of the week. and you people try to play videojames on it. many such cases.
all important people of humanity, everybody you hear of in the news every day - they don't even know what is linux. they either don't use computers at all, or they sit on windows. in best case - macos.
i'm not saying that linux sucks. linux is a wonderful thing for servers, the perfect pair. but not for the desktop.
tim cook didn't pay me to make this post, but macos in 2023 is an idealization of computers for productivity, developed by a pretty competent company. yes, i'll agree, expensive. but it's the best we have.
macOS is free if you don't value your sanity, as they say.
windows is here only because backend of various companies are still held up by it, and the economy holds up on these companies. microsoft has a holy job - to commit to backwards compatibility, as a repayment for the mistakes of the past. to make money from telemetry is just, you know, a side hustle.
linux was made only for servers, windows was made a mistake, and macos in turn was made by an elite sect and, regrettably, is the only path to the normal desktop.
computers were actually made not for videogames. it's just programmisters [sic] who found a funny way to move bits and bytes, so they could occupy the cold uncomputing hardware.
all normal videogames are long ago being made for consoles, this is why gamepads exist. and actually you should just play board games of some sort, socialise or something.
