quoting me and saying “don’t you see?” is not exactly demonstrating reading comprehension.

if you want to go on a crusade against CLIs, feel free, but leave me out. i think they’re great.

the comparison i replied to was whether it was easier to migrate to Linux vs setting up a local account, and any user is going to spend much more time migrating than running a single command.

I am well aware. avoiding all that bullshit is exactly why I continue to use Windows and would never advocate Linux blindly for desktop use.

sure, because the comment i was replying to talked about local accounts, and that’s how you do that on some editions of Windows 11.

oh, so when the Linux fanboys come out and say “you should switch to Linux, it’s easy!” they actually mean learn the decades long history of countless distributions, fork infighting, and an untold amount of software and hardware compatibility baggage, THEN switching will be easy! silly of me to make such a mistake!

you seem to have misinterpreted or misread this comment thread, sorry.

of course the most popular graphics card manufacturer wouldn’t work out of the box on Linux! i would expect nothing less!

yes, Nvidia, and who knows for the rest. i think it was Debian-based, maybe Mint. they went back to Win11 after barely a month because it was so rough, despite years of experience with Linux.

this exact situation happened about 3 months ago to my partner on a modern distro

yep, I have used many linux distros for 20 years or so, and they are certainly much harder to migrate to than checks notes pressing two keys and running a command to get a local account.

good luck getting more than a few hours into a fresh linux install without needing to use a CLI, lol

get excited for a random system update to boot you to a GRUB rescue console soon!

not really

There are many similar services like RethinkDNS that you should consider instead.

it’s a single review, who cares?

whatever it is you’re trying to do, be careful that your pi-hole DNS on port 53 is not exposed to the internet. otherwise your server will be abused for DDOS amplification attacks.
