Then im forced to use windows at work and get locked into a 45 minute forced update.

Not to mention how horribly slow win11 is even on 64 gb ram and an i7.

And the bloatware. Never seen so much bloat (and ai slop shit) ever before. And start menu ads. Yay.

How do people use this trash!

It is a LOT of work indeed! In fact I even commented on that hours ago in https://lemmy.ml/post/36231170/21124115

... but as you mention the alternative is ALSO a lot of work PLUS frustrations.

So between learned helplessness and tiring empowerment the choice remains obvious.

FWIW whenever it feels like it's "too much" I reminder myself how I browse through obscure man pages decades ago... to still find them useful today! It's crazy that so long after learning about tools like more or grep is useful on :

  • a desktop
  • a console (SteamDeck)
  • a mobile phone (which basically didn't exist back then)
  • a VR headset (yes, via termux)
  • the "cloud" (as in fine it's just a server)
