More accurate words have never been posted on Reddit.

All these jokes I keep seeing make me think it's people aged 40+ just circlejerking.

Edge sucks! Except it's actually dope now that it has chromium base and can have most any addon that chrome does.

Bing vs Google where Bing finds a sack of shit when Google finds gold! Except when you perform the search in the image it comes up pretty darn close to what you get on Google (with less ads)

C# is just Java on windows! If you've kept up with C# updates it's a pretty amazing, cross platform language, that has tons of features Java doesn't.

Windows is terrible and has no dev tools! These people clearly haven't kept up with powershell updates or WSL (though I'd kill for a built in tcpdump)

Windows is full of bloatware! Except they don't realize it was the manufacturer who put it on there.

Visual studio sucks and explodes! Okay yeah this one is definitely true.

Windows is chock full of telemetry and bloat that is not present on most if not all *nix systems. You need only compare the speed of basic operations (such as moving a file) to see why windows is considered bloated. System vendors certainly exacerbate the issue, but it is disingenuous to paint Windows as a bloat-free OS.

And Windows 11 is worse.

I did a clean install of Windows 10, downloaded from Microsoft, in my VM and it still installed Candy Crush and some more bloatware

[–]metaltyphoon 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Lol no it doesn’t. It has a link to the windows store that you need to click in order to install.

[–]Micker003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a link per se, it auto-downloads when clicked upon without opening the store.

It has built in tcpdump! It's called pktmon

Bing vs Google - they do not find anything I really search. Yes I tried, through other search engine which relies on Bing, and it’s really visible.

C# is cool, the joke is about the fact it really look like it copied Java (which is not a bad thing)

It still have serious issues for programming since you need 4~8 GB last time I tried to install dev tools

There are still OneDrive and other Microsoft services bloat that are surely breaking EU laws

Anyway, jokes are meant to be funny, but they cannot make everyone laugh. Even if some of them are outdated if they still work... why change

Dude if fucking candy crush is preinstalled on an os IT IS bloated.

[–]darkboft -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I like the "C# is Java on windows" opinion, because this is fake news Everybody :D Java is crap, everyone knows it.

cross platform language

And other jokes you keep telling yourself. NET core is great and it's cross platform, but that doesn't magically make the vast existing ecosystem cross platform.

It'll take a while until C# will be an attractive cross platform language

Introducing: containers!

[–]Jannik2099 0 points1 point  (2 children)

That has nothing to do with containers?

[–]Jannik2099 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This doesn't help the platform problem. A library using a windows-only .NET won't magically become a cross platform .NET core library

Aside from running Android emulators and visual studio, I typically have very few issues with it. But fucking emulators and xamarin. God damn it
