I'm going to argue that it's very unlikely any of those people are friends or colleagues. It didn't ask if you recommend Windows on social media or forums.
We're not friends? 🥺
Sry, who dis?
are those real? I don't believe anyone ever said "it's like linux but it works."
I think they're tongue in cheek.
it does work though, on windows i can see ads and intrusive crap all the time. Linux distros don't bother you at all, it's like linux is not even trying at this point.
This makes me want to make a Linux addon just for ads
Like make it entirely transparent Download this is you miss having ads lol
Oh god
I met a vegan who uses vim and arch linux. I'm that guy. I use vim and arch linux, and I'm a vegan.
I someday hope to meet myself again.
Have you considered CrossFit?
Maybe they cook only with an air fryer.
vegoon btw
well duh. windows is the default everyone uses, no one needs to recommend it.
linux on the other hand is an obscure choice that may be better for that use case and may not be known.
This meme is older than Windows 11
Don't be so certain - I'd recommend Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC IoT over Windows 11 any day
You can't get IOT as a consumer
Not with that attitude.
This meme is older than windows 8
You people are coordinated in your recommendations. You are more efficient than the KGB
Windows 11 has changed this, many many people now warn other people about not using Windows 11 because it is such shit. Doesn't matter what you run, just don't run Windows 11.
I literally can't install Windows 11 on my current computer lol. I know there are workarounds for it but I don't feel comfortable doing that for my primary computer.
windows 11 isn' all bad. It made my mother ask me to install linux on her computer.
That happened with Windows 8 and Vista as well. There was a running joke that every other Windows release was garbage when I was growing up.

And the joke works with 8 and 10 both being shitty, because they skipped 9, which would have been the good one.
They really should have gone with Windows Nine, to bring the naming scheme in line with Xbox One while also avoiding the startswith.('Windows 9') issue
No one outside of tech communities does that
Even the people I know that are otherwise relatively tech savvy don't do this.
Not to say it's a good operating system, though.

If we claim we are recommending distros do we escape on a technicality?

I would always start all conversations with my friends with "Hey Windows peasants!" If I had any friends. These two things have nothing whatsoever to do with each other.
I swear Linux users are borderline jehovah's witnesses going door to door
