Lemmy takes a big ol' shit on Windows, but the fact of the matter is that Windows is easy and it works.

I used Linux when I was a broke grad student many years ago. I use Windows now because I don't want to mess with some obscure settings in every mainstream application that was really meant to run on Windows.

I admit there's some one-time fiddling with the OS to remove the bloat and telemetry, but I don't see all that turning itself back on like so many nay-sayers bring up.

I'm just lazy, and Windows just works.

Edit: To be clear, part of the problem is also having to find alternatives to applications, because the normal ones are all meant for Windows.
