I’d like to introduce you to BetaNews. The second one of the authors posts an article about anything Linux related, there’s this group that jumps straight to the comments about how much Linux sucks, it will never replace Windows, these Linux fanboys need to give it up already, etc. It’s so consistent that you could set your watch to what they say.
The ones I met really don’t know anything else. If you got to the point of being a Windows power user (slight oxymoron), having to start again on another platform is enraging when it seams different for the sake of it. It seams like others are cheating when achieving more using something else. They aren’t playing by the same rules!
Similarly, if you don’t know anything else and don’t know Windows really either, change is scary. Basically humans don’t like change and will fight to keep things unchanged, rather than embrace and utilize the change.
Didn’t even know there were such a thing as evangelists for Windows
It’s an odd sort of evangelism. They almost never try to convince you Windows is good, just that everything else is worse.
It doesn’t. Nobody loves windows
Hi I like Windows, I use it as my primary development platform
I use it as my workstation at work as well. I’m a linux sysadmin and i prefer it as workstation compared to fedora or whatever lol
Windows just works, but I hate so much about it too, so I’m not a “windows evangelist”
