# I switched back to Microsoft Windows, here's why
2023-04-01
As you guys may know if you have been a speedie.site reader for a while, I was a
Gentoo user, and recently I switched to using Arch full time. However, I am yet
again switching operating system because I just found out Windows is the best
operating system ever made.
## Linux sucks, but Windows is awesome!
Now, most of you probably use some open source Linux distribution on your
computer. But Linux is open source, and that's bad. That means Russian
hackers can steal your porn collection because of course they can see all the
source code and backdoor it. When you're using Microsoft Windows on the other
hand, the only one who can access your data is Microsoft, who will send that
data to the NSA. This also makes sure your data is safe, and that you're
following the law like any good citizen. When I'm using Windows I feel safe
and no malware has access to my data. The same cannot be said for Linux or
any other open source operating system
These Linux users who never go outside or shower will say that this is malicious,
or that it is spyware, or any other nonsense but the fact of the matter is the
government already knows everything about you anyway. You should not care about
privacy if you have nothing to hide, so of course Linux users have a lot to
hide. The government would never do anything bad anyway, they only
want the best for you.
## Tiling window managers suck
Why would you use a tiling window manager? Only hackers use those. Tiling
window managers are also really hard to use, I mean think about all the keybinds
you need to remember to get good at using one.
What about speedwm? I'm just kidding, I've been secretly using GNOME for years,
and I was never using speedwm in the first place. Hating Wayland? Actually,
I've been using a Wayland session on GNOME for a long time now. As we all
know, X11 is old and slow, and it's not written in Rust so that makes it
instantly bad. spmenu? It's just rofi with a theme.
C programming language? Hell no, it's so hard to learn and it's so old.
Real programmers use JavaScript for the frontend and Rust for the backend. Recently
though, I've started using C# which is superior to both of these in
every way. We all love Micorsoft.
## Vim is only used by furries, neckbeards and weirdos
Vim is a meme Linux users force onto new users. In reality, Vim is hard to use and
it's so slow, I can't even figure out how to exit it. If I can't even exit it,
how can I use it to write code? Why wouldn't you just use a mouse anyway?
It's not 1983 anymore, we have modern, proper computers for real people now.
The only people who still use Vim are neckbeards who want to look cool on
the internet but in reality don't have a life.
Visual Studio Code on the other hand is the greatest code editor ever and
it's what I've been using for months now, while people were under the
impression that I'm an avid Vim user. It's "open source" so that the
Linux neckbeards will use it, but uses a mouse, because it's 2023
and if you're not using a mouse for everything except typing, you're
lost in the past. It also supports JavaScript plugins and has a lot
of Microsoft telemetry, so they know you're doing a good job
writing programs for the future.
## Installing programs
Linux users claim that using their terrible package managers is better
than downloading executables from the internet directly. This is just
not true, because the package managers can be hijacked remotely by Russia
to spread propaganda to all of the users. This doesn't happen when you
download random executables from the internet, because Microsoft Defender
is guarding your computer, and has a 100% success rate. As soon as malware
tries to attack your computer, Microsoft Defender is there to stop it.
## Software minimalism
Software minimalism is all a big joke. Why do you need your computer to
use 100MB of system RAM idle? Unused RAM is wasted RAM. Microsoft makes sure
to leave no RAM wasted, which makes it much better. Unlike suckless, Microsoft
makes feature complete software that normal people can use. In fact,
suckless is just a software project created by Microsoft's worst employees
created to trick Linux users into thinking Linux is unusable, thus getting them
to move over to Windows. Microsoft makes sure people join the beautiful land
of Windows, where no one falls for memes, and everyone is secure.
Conclusion then. After I found out Windows is better than Linux, I have
decided to stop working on my meme projects, and join Bill Gates in
helping him build the best operating system for normal people. Linux
furries and neckbeards, join the land of Microsoft today, stop using the
Matrix meme, come back to Discord, assist Microsoft and the NSA in
catching criminals, and become a real member of society today.
It's only a $100 operating system.
