Hope is the thing with Linux

2025-06-09 17:24:02.040339+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

I feel this so hard. Especially as the Mac just gets worse with every release: afreytes 🇵🇷 ☭ @afreytes@mastodon.gamedev.place

I'm sorry in advance if this sounds cringe or sappy. Or if it is something well known. But right now the difference, for me, in using Linux versus Windows is hope. It really is. Let me explain.

On Linux, if I have an issue, or a problem, something I don't understand. I have hope that I can find a way, an alternative, a forum, someone that will help, or even make it better by myself. No matter the issue hope drives me forward.

On Windows, there is no hope anything will get better.
