And don't forget 1:1 gestures and the Crash-Resilient Wayland Compositing that keep the application alive even tho the "compositor" crash, so it does restart without any data loss.

Edit: forgot to mention the lockscreen protocol, because on xorg if the lockscreen crash then you view the desktop and you have the device unlocked!

Illegal or not, most of the people out there never installed their os, because they buy a device with an os preinstalled and indirectly they buy the license for windows.

If they make it easy for you doesn't mean it's legal.

It's illegal to use windows without a license. As even stated in the license you agree before installing the os, this one, on section 5 Authorized Software and Activation.

You are authorized to use this software only if you are properly licensed and the software has been properly activated with a genuine product key or by other authorized method

It's illegal to do soo, not that much debatable.

Yes a formality that you pay every time you buy a pc with windows pleinstalled and it's an asshole to refund.

Commenting on c/Piracy doesn't exclude I pay for software, indeed I payed for 3 windows licenses two with the costs of my 2 laptop and one I payed my self in my custom built pc. (And I'm only counting windows 10 licenses because the count would be much higher if I counted windows xp,vista,7 and 8) and that was my only and one comment on every piracy related community.

Edit: the same people force you to have a windows license and a driving license, but one get checked more than the other that's it.

IGG is bad because some of their repacks had their drm inside dll files, there were Ads built into the game at runtime, were found Cryptominers and startup malware included in their games and many other things.

Using windows without a license is illegal.

This is like saying you don't need to have a driving license to drive a car because the car doesn't complain about it.

 

The text say in italian "To configure this device, you need to have the Xbox Identity Provider installed and be signed in to your Xbox account. Check that your PC is connected to the internet, and try installing the Xbox Identity Provider. Then sign in to the Xbox app. If that doesn't work, please try again later."

This means that for some reason my connection doesn't work or the xbox servers are offline I cannot customize my controller in any shape of form with the official app from Microsoft.

I quote "But installing a secondary SSD required me to input some commands and change a text file (again, on Windows, it's almost literally plug and play), and I had an absolutely awful time trying to configure an app called MangoHUD, which I use for benchmarking on the Steam Deck. It took me a couple of hours to get MangoHUD working, between the usual Linux nonsense and an acute lack of documentation.

Ultimately, the desktop Linux experience is made by programmers, for programmers. Programmers don't make GUIs; they just type commands because that's way faster. Linux apps on GitHub don't come with precise instructions because you're just supposed to know how to start, know how editing a config file works, and so on. This is far beyond the comprehension and patience of most users, even ones like myself that are fairly technically inclined. At least Windows is made for actual users."
