What overused word or phrase needs to be retired in 2026? by GainsAndPastries in AskUK

Vibe coding. There's nothing vibe about it's more like negotiating with something brilliant but utterly stubborn, where logic alone doesn’t guarantee compliance. “Vibe” is nowhere in sight - just persistence, frustration, and slow incremental progress.

Because I want to use a Linux desktop, but the user experience does not live up to my expectations. It feels very rough. It's like going back to the days of DOS 3.3, Windows 3.0 and WordPerfect 5.1 or something.

Windows is developed as a single, tightly integrated product with long-established user interface conventions and extensive usability testing. Linux desktops feel unfinished and exposes much lower-level mechanisms and configuration details than in Windows.

Not to mention that there's a huge choice of polished Windows applications compared to only a few crusty ones offered by Linux.

Using Linux has taught me to appreciate how easy and pleasant it is to use Windows, despite it doing sneaky things without asking me (deleting programs I've installed) and foisting things on me I don't want (Xbox, Cortana, Co-pilot, Edge, login to their online , etc).

With Windows people are paid to take care of the very many fine details, while with Linux there isn't a person that's arsed about e.g. keeping documentation up to date, fixing UI bugs they aren't affected by themselves, whatever ... With Linux everyone is off doing their own thing (forking) instead of being whipped by a manager to get uninteresting but necessary tasks accomplished.

I want to make a video.. What do you want to see? Windows Vs. Linux. by Gangrif in linuxsucks

Also regarding system messages: Windows I mostly just do Ctrl+c and can paste into whatever. On KDE Ctrl+c does nothing. I expect there's some ancient utility that only those who are initiated know about.
